A Progressive Perspective on Aging and Health

Dr. Valencia is a pioneer in the concept of Gerontoprofilaxis, a philosophy that encourages individuals to take an active role in maintaining health and vitality as they age. He has authored 13 books on aging with dignity and improving quality of life, sharing decades of experience in caring for aging populations.

Throughout his career, Dr. Valencia observed that many patients struggling with chronic conditions were often treated primarily with increasing medications. This experience led him to explore regenerative and integrative approaches that focus on supporting the body’s natural repair processes, including stem cell–based therapies.

A Physician Who Understands the Patient Experience

Dr. Valencia’s interest in regenerative medicine is also deeply personal. After experiencing significant side effects from medications that affected his vision and heart health, he explored regenerative treatments himself. His personal experience strengthened his belief in the potential of regenerative medicine as a complementary approach to support healing and recovery.

Guided by integrity, humility, and genuine care for his patients, Dr. Valencia continues to dedicate his work to helping people regain function, improve quality of life, and explore new possibilities for healing through regenerative medicine.

Danyel Roman Kriehl

Founder & CEO

Born in Berlin, Germany, Danyel Kriehl brings a diverse background to his role as Founder and CEO of Stems for Life. His experience spans economics, healthcare consulting, holistic health coaching, and the arts, giving him a unique perspective on patient care and wellness.

Before founding Stems for Life, Danyel worked in the medical tourism industry in Germany, where he helped connect international patients with leading healthcare providers abroad. His work focused on facilitating advanced laser eye treatments in Turkey, providing him with valuable insight into international patient care, treatment coordination, and access to advanced medical technologies.

Danyel’s commitment to regenerative medicine is also deeply personal. After more than ten years of competitive soccer and two serious motorcycle accidents, he was left with chronic knee pain and damage to his sciatic nerve. The persistent discomfort significantly impacted his mobility and quality of life.

Seeking solutions beyond conventional treatments, Danyel underwent stem cell and exosome therapy with Dr. Jose “Pepe” Valencia. The treatment helped reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and restore strength—allowing him to move with far greater comfort again.

This life-changing experience ultimately inspired him to establish Stems for Life in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. His mission is to help others access innovative regenerative therapies that may support healing, improve quality of life, and offer new possibilities for patients facing chronic conditions.

Danyel believes the future of healthcare lies in combining advanced medical science with a holistic understanding of the body, creating treatment experiences that prioritize personalized care and long-term well-being.

"My own recovery through regenerative medicine inspired me to build Stems for Life so others can access the same hope and healing I experienced."
