In an Aug. 8 Instagram post, Kim talked about traveling to Mexico to receive stem cell therapy to treat “debilitating pain” caused by a shoulder injury from lifting weights two years ago. According to her, she’d “tried everything to find relief” before visiting Dr. Adeel Khan at Eterna Health and achieving “immediate” results. Kim said, “I regained full range of motion, and my shoulder has felt completely normal ever since.”
The positive experience led her to return to Dr. Khan “to address chronic back pain that I have been suffering with for years.”
Kim shared, “The Muse stem cell treatment was a game-changer once again. I experienced relief right away, and the unbearable pain is finally gone.” She highly recommended the treatment for anyone struggling with back pain, writing, “It’s transformed my life when I thought my body was breaking down.”

Except, for many people, stem cell treatment is wildly unaffordable. According to Global Stem Cell Therapy, costs in Mexico can be anywhere between $4,000 and $15,000. On top of that, many stem cell treatments are not FDA-approved, including those for shoulder and back pain. That said, many people weren’t feeling Kim’s post. This person straight-up told her, “Kimmy, we’re poor…”
Another commented, “Kim, there’s people that are dying.”
Others wished they had that luxury…
…And accepted they’ll have to live with their pain forever because they aren’t rich.
Another person sarcastically said, “Sounds super affordable.”
As others pointed out how wildly out-of-touch Kim’s post was in the current economy.
