WHY PROLOTHERAPY RESULTS MAY NOT BE
SEEN IMMEDIATELY
This article says that
Prolotherapy
is
dependent on the Prolotherapist treating the injured structures
and that at Caring Medical we find that most people are cured of their pain with three to six
Prolotherapy sessions. If by the sixth
Prolotherapy session a person has not had significant improvement, we search for another cause of their pain like infection or allergy.

Not
All Prolotherapists Are Created Equal
Because of the numerous calls we receive, we have a good idea, (the
good, the bad, and the ugly) about what is happening with
Prolotherapy around the country. Remember that not all Prolotherapists are created
equal and the proof is some of the things our patients have told us and what we have heard from other physicians.

Sacroiliac
pain after six Prolotherapy sessions
Q. At what point-after, say, 6+ Prolotherapy treatments by an experienced
prolotherapist does one begin to consider SI (sacroiliac)
joint fixation/fusion? I am seeing some progress in terms of frequency of
recurrent sublixation of the joint, but am still in a considerable amount of
pain. I know that experiences are different, but at what point do we say that
this is as good as it can get with
Prolo?

Sacroiliac
pain after Prolotherapy
Q. I fell off a ladder onto my back in
December 1999. I had Prolotherapy for severe joint glide and the
treatment did help alot, to the point where I could return to work.
Unfortunately it did not last and my pain and glide became worse and I'm
now off work again. I returned to Prolotherapy injections with marginal
improvement but nothing close to the original success. Can you tell me
what percentage you would use for the injections? How many injections
per compromised ligament would you suggest so I can discuss this with my Prolotherapist? |

What
Could Be Wrong When Prolotherapy Doesn't Work?
The key to Prolotherapy is
twofold: you must have a Prolotherapy-Responsive Ailment (PRA), in
other words, a pain that Prolotherapy is effective at treating and you
must get a sufficient
inflammatory response to the area to stimulate repair through the
process of Prolotherapy. |
