Hi, thanks for asking.
I can understand your concerns.
Till the date there is no evidence to prove the beneficial role of stem cell therapy for mental retardation, cerebral palsy or motor co-ordination defect.
The cost is any where between 3 to 5 lakhs.
I hope I have helped you.
Thank you.
I find this answer helpful
