Prolotherapy: an impressive solution to all sorts of physical pains
Prolotherapy
is a very effective treatment for many forms of musculoskeletal pain.
This is because prolotherapy targets ligaments, cartilage and tendon
(LCT) structures that our often at the bottom of many pain syndromes.
The musculoskeletal system has to be highly flexible and adaptable to
physical demands while maintaining structural integrity. This is no
small demand considering the constant movement of the human body.
LCT tissues stabilize and move bony structures along joints
allowing the body a wide array of fluid movements. But LCT tissues can
be injured just like any other part of the body. For example an
unexpected step off a street curb and an injury might arise to the
knee, ankle and or even one's lower back. The stability of the body is
what LCT
structures are all about. Wear and tear to these tissues is a
very, very common occurrence for the general public. Athletic
injuries can especially leave LCT tissues weakened and injured and in
need of attention.
Now
consider that unless there is a significant tear or destruction of
tissue
in an LCT structure there typically will not be positive findings with
diagnostic
imaging. Unstable or injured LCT structures are for the most part
not visible with modern diagnostic imaging. LCT structures
hold joints in stable positions based on the health of those tissues. A
weak foundation leads to all sorts of problems in house, home and body.
LCT syndromes
are probably responsible for the vast majority of pain syndromes
not corrected by conservative medical management (such as chiropractic
and or physical therapy) when there are negative diagnostic imaging
studies.
Try Prolo if More Conservative Measures Have Not Produced Results
What is Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy
creates a regenerative
process in injured and unstable ligaments, tendons and cartilage
tissues. This is
done by injecting a solution of sterile water,
12.5 % dextrose solution (sugar water) and lidocaine at the
bone/ligament
interface. Research indicates that even what is called dry needling (no
injectable solution) is proven to reduce pain when injecting in injured
LCT tissues. After a prolotherapy treatment LCT tissues heal
and strengthen over a 4-6 week period. The strength of
Prolotherapy is that it restores and regenerates the health of
LCT tissues creating more stable joints and reducing associated
pain.
Prolotherapy is a very safe effective treatment for all sorts of physical pains when compared to surgery
An Alternative to Surgery
More
and more the public has growing concerns for surgical treatment of
musculoskeletal pain. Surgery can be very helpful but it should be used
as a last resort. Prolotherapy in one study has been shown
effective in managing patients that had a history of poor surgical
outcomes (Failed Back Syndrome). Pain Physician. 2005 Apr 8(2);167-83.
Mayo Clinic on Prolotherapy
As of April 2005, doctors at the Mayo Clinic began supporting
prolotherapy. Mayo Clinic doctors list the areas that are most likely
to benefit from prolotherapy treatment as ankles, knees, elbows, and
the sacroiliac joint at the low back. The Mayo clinic reports that "unlike steroid
injections — which may provide temporary relief — prolotherapy involves
a more permanent strengthening and healing by stimulating tissue
growth."
