Hi Tony,

This treatment is still in trials, but there was a lady on the news who had been given this treatment after having Parkinson's for 17 years. It showed a before and after I have to say it was amazing. The treatment involves injecting cells into a certain part of the brain which controls movement and these cells can produce the dopamine, of course as I mentioned it is still in trials at the moment because of side effects. Perhaps if you google the Sky news channel it will have more info for you to see.
