Treatment for Sensory Neural Hearing Loss & Tinnitus
Recently there have been numerous conversations about both LumoMed & ShimSpot treatments on the Tinnitus Talk forum.
Both Dr. Kaiser & Dr. Shim are excited about the potential of their treatments for the inner ear and the potential of combining these treatments.
What is SunaVae?
LumoMed is a series of laser treatments, and ShimSpot is a safe and effective injection of X Cell stem cells. Combined, they become SunaVae Therapy!
What is Our History With Inner Ear Regeneration?
Dr. John Lieurance and the team at Advanced Rejuvenation have been focusing on inner ear regeneration for many years. They have been seeking out the best options for treatments aimed to regenerate the inner ear for conditions such as tinnitus, hearing loss, hyperacusis, and even balance disorders which can all be due to inner ear damage. We brought LumoMed to the USA almost a decade ago, and are currently the only providers for LumoMed in the USA. Our clinic became certified in ShimSpot this year and we are currently offering the combination of both techniques.
What are X Cell Stem Cells and Why use Them for Inner Ear Regeneration?
After working in the field of regenerative medicine for over 20 years, I have seen myriad stem cell applications and many different types of stem cells. They all have unique characteristics. The vast majority of clinics use perinatal stem cells, which include stem cells from cord blood, Wharton’s jelly, and amniotic fluid. There are also products containing exosomes derived from these perinatal stem cells. Exosomes are the tiny vesicles that are secreted from stem cells and activate a rejuvenating effect. After using perinatal stem cells and perinatal exosomes for many years, I have discovered a much more powerful stem cell line I call X cells. X cells (not to be confused with the lymphocytes of the same name) are derived from adipose, or fat tissue, and they are considered adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC). Let’s dive into the benefits of ADSC and why they might be the best answer for regeneration of the inner ear as well as orthopedic and neurologic applications.

The Need For Inner Ear Regeneration.
Besides our loud modern environment, we also have stresses such as COVID and Vax injuries. SunaVae has come at the perfect time to support all who suffer damage to the inner ear.
This is an image of the actual SunaVae Injection being preformed.
A Stem Cell injection followed by laser activation is not a new approach to the regeneration of cells and tissues. For the past 25 years, Dr. John and his medical staff have been performing this combination with orthopedic care. Using stem cells along with laser holds much promise.
Why Laser Stem Cells?
Stem cells are fragile, and there is a risk called senescence where they can go into a permanent state of sleep. This is the major focus of many studies on improving stem cell results by scientists working in the field of regenerative medicine.
What’s the Secret Sauce?
Laser in the spectrum of 660nm with a high power of 75,000 mv is the technology used at Advanced Rejuvenation and through LumoMed. Methylene Blue is also used to further improve the activation of the stem cells by the laser. This is called PhotBioModulation. You can see more information on this technology by reading Dr. John’s ebook on Methylene Blue at MethyleneBlueBook.com which takes a deep dive into this “Magic Bullet”.
Additional Support at Home Also Advised.
Advanced Rejuvenation and Dr. John Lieurance have been working to put together the most cutting-edge protocol for inner ear health we call the “Sensory Rejuvenation Protocol”. This protocol focuses on specific lifestyle modifications, nutritional support, and removing all triggers causing inflammation in the nervous system and/or the inner ear.

STUDIES ON LASER FOR INNER EAR CONDITIONS:
HARVARD STUDY: biostimulation of inner ear cells with light.
JOURNAL OF BIOPHOTONICS: photobiomodulation reduces inflammatory cytokines and markers of oxidative stress in cochlear hair cells
Here are some study results from Dr. Shim on his ShimSpot Treatment:
These results are based on patients treated with ShimSpot.
The statistics results are more realistic than dramatic. The better results are within the most important range which is where the conversation takes place, and they are statistically significant.
Treatment Result of Sudden Hearing Loss:
A 37-year-old Female.
ShimSPOT x7 over 1 month.
Here are her results:

After Injection using ShimSPOT
Her hearing is now normalized!
Why We Only Use the Stem Cell Approach.
Dr. Shim uses either PRP or Stem cell injections in his practice in Korea. The use of PRP requires 6 or more injections in the ear treated. However, stem cells only require 2, as it is more effective. This is why we only provide stem cell injections for our patients, as most of them travel in for this treatment.
Schedule a 1 or 2 Week Protocol.
We have designed a 1 and 2-week protocol for this. The injection is painless and only requires you to lay for 30 minutes afterward. An IV, suppository, or an oral preparation of Methylene Blue will be administered after the ShimSpot injection, and LumoMed will be performed at this time and in the following days.
Details on LumoMed.
LumoMed is a series of laser treatments. Each lasts an hour, and they are done daily for 1 or 2 weeks for a total of 5-10 treatments. It is recommended to receive 10 treatments over 2 weeks rather than only 5. Folks who will travel in can break their care into 2 visits each lasting one week. It isn’t recommended to wait longer than 1 month for the follow-up treatment.
The Sensory Rejuvenation Protocol is suggested as a follow-up care plan to further support the regeneration of the inner ear. We also offer a 3-month Sensory Rejuvenation Coaching Program to further support our patients receiving this treatment. See the article HERE.
Hair cells in the inner ear are the nerve cells that allow us to perceive sound waves. They are essential for our balance, hearing, and proper brain function. Without them, we would be deaf and disoriented. If hair cells are damaged in any way, we suffer permanent hearing loss or debilitating balance disorders. We are finding these insufficiencies are also intimately connected to our brain function and can cause issues with proper coordination of the eyes and movement of the body. Since the autonomic nervous system is also wired through these pathways, the function of the gut, heart, liver, kidney, and bladder can all suffer from issues from your hair cells. With these little cells being so important, you would think this would be a major area of new medical breakthroughs… but it’s not compared to other areas of medicine!
