As an offensive lineman for the Washington Redskins, Mark told a reporter in 2013 that he recalls dozens of practices and games where “you'd get dinged, you saw sparklers, you'd walk off the field woozy, they'd put one of those ammonia tablets under your nose, that cleared you up, and two series later, you were back in the game."

Yet Mark noted improvement the very first night after his treatment. He says that because he had suffered so much pain from injuries over his career, he generally slept poorly – tossing and turning – but the night after his treatment, “was the first night I slept in one place in many years.”


Relief from pain throughout the body

As an offensive linesman, Mark earned the nickname “May Day” during his college career because of the way he would “wreak havoc” on the defensive tackles of opposing teams. 
After joining the Washington Redskins, he was known as a key member of the team’s legendary “Hogs” offensive line and helped the team score two Super Bowl championships.

But injuries suffered during such a successful 13-season career left him in chronic pain – in his hips, knees, neck, shoulder, and lower back – in addition to symptoms of CTE. 

These injuries are why Mark decided to receive cell treatment at BioXcellerator.


Severe damage and multiple findings

According to BioXcellerator Chief Medical Officer Dr. Karolynn Halpert, Mark’s case was “complex with multiple findings” because Mark’s pain was the result of loss of joint structure and poor disc configuration in both his cervical and lumbar spine.
