Years of rigorous sparring on the octagon finally took its toll on Jay Glazer’s body. A fighter who trains NFL players in mixed martial arts during the offseason and serves as an insider during the season has gone through some tough times because of his back injuries. Like the 55-year-old was already quite open about his battles with mental health—his constant struggles with anxiety and depression. Hell, he even continues to use different platforms to raise awareness for the same. Now, it seems like he has chosen the same path to share his life-changing recovery from back injuries.

Today, he took to his X and gave a detailed breakdown of his time at The Auragens in Panama. It’s a top stem cell therapy clinic which has seemingly healed Glazer’s back struggles. He first started off by describing The Auragens as his absolute HAPPY PLACE.” Why? You will get to know soon. Coming back down for my stem cells bc I re-herniated L1/L2 training this year. But this time around, I’m doing a next-level cutting-edge procedure. I haven’t done yet where they go into my actual discs and inject new stem cells.” He then, at the end of his tweet, was absolutely ecstatic about the result of this new procedure, which pretty much sums up how it went. 

“I tried the stem cells at Auragens that got me through the season pretty much pain-free.” However, he also expressed his interest in finding out whether this stem cell therapy actually made a difference or not. “Excited to see if the stem cells made a difference in healing.” Like it surely must have. Otherwise, why would he tag the President of The Auragens on his tweet? He basically has urged everyone else who is facing similar struggles like Glazer to try out the Auragens. While describing himself as “just an EXTREMELY HAPPY Patient.”

Well, Glazer also brought his wife Rosie to this incredible journey. No, not for any back therapy, as Glazer jokingly said, My wife Rosie @TenisonTwins hasn’t been beat up by NFL players and fighters for 20 years, so she just comes for anti-aging and a stem cell facial.” Although we don’t know the exact number of NFL players, Glazer has trained in martial arts. There are reports that over 1,000 athletes have benefitted from his program. So, clearly, Jay has left a lot on the octagon with clientele like Michael Strahan and Odell Beckham Jr., to name a few.

However, this journey that Glazer opened up today actually started back in 2023. That’s when he first visited Panama to get stem cell therapy.

Jay Glazer was forced to address his tattered back

On June 19th, Jay Glazer dropped his first tweet about his trip to Panama. Yes, he may have enjoyed time on the beaches of Panama with his wife, but the main mission was to always get his back on track. “Just got down to Panama w Rosie for long-awaited week of stem cell treatments for my back. Doc wants to fuse L4/L5 after years of using my body like a messed up amusement park but I’m going this route first @theauragens.”

Jay Glazer's stem cell success: Is this the future of recovery for athletes with chronic injuries?

Have an interesting take?

Overlooking his back problems continuously and pushing them to their limit finally handed Glazer a reality check about the severity of the issues. So, after landing in Panama, Glazer didn’t waste any more time. Trying to make up for the time lost. Within a day, he was at the Auragens, asking for well wishes from his followers.

Besides opening up on his stem cell therapy. On June 22nd 2023, Glazer actually showed the severity of his spinal problems. “I have no L4/L5 left from all the ruptures, few discs up top are on their way out,” sharing an X-ray. We do hope Joe Glazer’s stem cell therapy has somewhat given him a respite from constant back pain. Because we all know how cruel back pain can be in some way or another.

Maybe not so much like Jay Glazer—who clearly waited till the end to address his back. Like the true fighter he is—Glazer didn’t give up until there was no other way for him to win.

Have something to say?

Let the world know your perspective.
