Caring Medical offers second opinion on cases that appears to have plateaued
| < Back to Prolotherapy Article Index |
We received the following email recently from a patient in Oklahoma, "I have received 3 Prolotherapy treatments from a local physician for my sacroiliac joint. The first treatment reduced my pain about 50%. The 2nd and 3rd treatments gave me marginal improvement, but it seems like I have plateaued in my progress. I would like to make an appointment to become 100% better. Since I live far away, I would like it if I could receive the Prolotherapy on my first visit."
What kind of Prolotherapy is best?
At Caring Medical, we specialize in treating chronic pain and sports injuries, utilizing the comprehensive Hackett-Hemwall Prolotherapy technique. In conjunction with Prolotherapy, we founded The Hauser Diet Natural Medicine Program to maximize wellness and healing, and for those desiring to achieve optimal weight and energy. Dr. Hauser will also address your nutritional needs, as well as your ability to heal, making sure that your body possesses the building blocks in order to optimize healing.
Dr. Hauser, being an avid athlete himself - a five-time Ironman finisher, cyclist, and ultramarathoner, is also able to fully address the exercise and training needs of our athlete patients, as well as the patient in chronic pain, having suffered with many pain conditions himself over the years. He prescribes exercise regimes that will help strengthen the weakened area, as well as provide you with a program to progress you back into your sport/activity as quickly as possible.
Not all Prolotherapy is comprehensive
We hear from people like the patient from Oklahoma every day who tell us about their minimal injection Prolotherapy experience and disappointing results. If you feel like you may not be getting better as quickly as expected, we'd be happy to see you and give you a second opinion, and perhaps more thorough Prolotherapy treatment. The comprehensive Prolotherapy done at Caring Medical means that the whole area is treated, with enough solution, and the solution is strong enough to cause healing. The above emailer became a patient and was interestingly diagnosed with benign congenital hypermobility (naturally loose tendons and ligaments), worsened from years of yoga and gymnastics. She was "faithfully" stretching and doing yoga, but in reality, she needed to be doing strength training in order to build muscle to make her stronger and tighter. Dr. Hauser also wanted her to strengthen her weak side by using a bosu ball, starting with standing on it to strengthen the weak hip/leg. In addition to that, she not only needed her SI joint treated with Prolotherapy, but also her hip and her entire low back, utilizing a stronger Prolotherapy solution due to the congenital hypermobility syndrome. Dr. Hauser also recommended that she start taking supplements to help repair and accelerate the healing process.
