How Many Shots?
While the notion of getting a lot of injections into your body may not
be appealing, surely you want every area of your body treated that is
causing pain? Is it any wonder when a person goes to a
Prolotherapy
doctor and gets two or three shots why they don’t get completely
better?
We all know conceptually if you injure a
structure in a joint that over time that injury is going to affect all
the structures of the joint. Most people come to a Prolotherapy doctor after
they have had the pain for several years. What may have started out as
a simple ligament sprain, after 3-6 years is now a total joint problem.
All the structures of the joint and around the joint (or at least the
majority of them) need to be treated with Prolotherapy to completely
alleviate the pain!
It is common for me to see patients for the first time who talk about
the one shot Prolotherapy they received at another office. While in the
most technical sense, this might be Prolotherapy, (because they used a
PProlotherapy solutions), it may not be effective. To be effective, the Prolotherapy doctor must do the following:
Stimulate all the structures that are
injured to heal.
Use enough solution per structure to
induce a sufficient healing reaction.
Use a strong enough solution per
structure to induce a sufficient healing reaction.
Help the person obtain maximum health
if their health is not good.
Assist the person in getting off
medications, supplements, or traditional hormones (like birth
control pills) that inhibit healing.
Assist the person to get their
lifestyle and relationships such that they help, rather than hinder,
progress.
There is obviously more to it than the
above, but the main point here is that in the history of Caring Medical,
we have never had one patient ever leave the office disappointed that
they didn’t get enough shots!

There is no known cure
for arthritis. Prolotherapy
and nutritional supplements can help alleviate, reverse, or end
arthritic pain by treating an underlying cause that contributes to
degenerative disease, ligament laxity. Strengthening ligaments and other
connective tissue can help prevent bone on bone arthritis from
developing.
