Rummaging through these comments, it appears these experimental treatments have worked for some but not others. So, it leads me to conclude that it depends on a variety of factors specific to each individual but primarily how serious the deterioration of the person's joint / cartilege is. Perhaps, even the method of the practitioner may play a role. Whatever, it appears that it is not a treatment that has been perfected yet but could work for some.
