Prolotherapy is a safe, effective treatment for sports injuries, chronic pain, and degenerative conditions.
Prolotherapy is a medical procedure that many chronic and acute pain patients, as well as athletes with sports injuries, are turning to because it is used as an alternative to surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone shots, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, and/or chronic use of narcotic pain medications. Prolotherapy stimulates the body to repair the painful injured area(s) when the body’s natural healing process is not able to do the job on its own. In most cases, commonly prescribed anti-inflammatory medications and more drastic measures like surgery, joint replacements, cortisone shots, and other therapies may not help, and often hinder or even prevent the healing process.
Many people who find themselves in pain want to get back in the game as soon as possible – whether their painful condition is from a back injury due to improper lifting, a work-related injury such as carpal tunnel syndrome from computer use, or plantar fasciitis from a sports injury such as long distance running. Prolotherapy becomes a very safe, affordable option that allows the patient to keep working and/or training during the recovery process. Prolotherapy is one of the few treatments that encourages movement post-treatment (movement actually aids the healing process after Prolotherapy). This is why Dr. Ross Hauser at Caring Medical and Rehabilitation Services sees patients from all over the greater Oak Park-Forest Park-River Forest-Chicagoland area, as well as from all 50 states and even internationally.
