NFL Center Cam Jurgens Seeks Regenerative Care in Colombia

When Philadelphia Eagles center Cam Jurgens, a 17mil USD a year man, recently traveled to Medellín, Colombia, for a “health reset week,” it underscored a growing trend: U.S. patient, including elite athletes, are seeking advanced regenerative therapies abroad that are currently limited in the United States.

What Cam chose:

• Jurgens visited Colombia to receive a regenerative stem cell protocol reported to include 70 million stem cells and a minimally invasive intradiscal injection aimed at chronic back pain.

• His week also included cryotherapy, ozone therapy, and guided physical therapy. He has said the combined approach has helped his recovery after lingering back issues and prior surgery.

• Because strict FDA regulations restrict many of these procedures in the U.S., professional athletes and other patients often travel to accredited international clinics to access comprehensive regenerative treatment packages.

Why this matters to clients abroad:

• Access to options: Some regenerative and cell‑based interventions available at reputable international clinics are not broadly available in the U.S. due to differing regulatory frameworks.

• Integrated care: Clinics abroad (Sanoras handles all of this for our clients) often bundle diagnostics, image‑guided minimally invasive procedures, adjunctive therapies (e.g., ozone, cryotherapy), and tailored rehab in an accelerated timeline.

• Time and convenience: A focused “reset week” model compresses evaluation, treatment, and early rehabilitation into a short stay, which can appeal to busy professionals and athletes.

• Cost transparency: Many international centers offer competitive pricing compared with U.S. out‑of‑pocket costs for comparable multi‑modal programs. Sanoras for example, offers all of these services for a single payment.

• Recovery environment: Medical tourism destinations like Colombia combine high‑quality clinical care with comfortable recovery settings and concierge support.

What to consider before you go:

• Verify clinic credentials: Ask for physician qualifications, hospital affiliations, international accreditations, and peer‑reviewed outcomes when available.

• Understand the treatment: Get clear details on the cells/procedures used, expected outcomes, risks, and follow‑up care required at home.

• Plan continuity of care: Coordinate with your U.S. healthcare providers for pre‑travel clearance and post‑treatment monitoring.

• Travel logistics and insurance: Confirm travel, lodging, and whether your insurer covers any portion of your care or follow‑up.
