Has anyone sought out their help? They use a person's own stem cells to regrow a variety of joint and bone issues; treating, knees, wrists, spine, .......
It is relatively new. I'd say 5 years.
Thanks,

Anyone have a thought.
There is discussion of prolotherapy on another thread.
I wonder which is better and safer-
Thanks

Well, I just called them.
The Institute looks really interesting. They also do prolotherapy along with other types of therapy based on the patient's situation.
Not all areas of the body have they started the stem cell therapy. Only in the lumbar region of the back. No where else. But, they took my info and put me on a call list WHEN that changes, and my body part is up to bat. Thoracic spine.
Anyone here of this or know someone who had it done?

Can you get this treatment through "regular" medical channels?? I'm skeptical of places like this.. ( I did go look)..

Do Prolotherapy! It works and is available now for every conceivable part of your body.
I've had just about everywhere done many times. It has saved my life. I wouldn't be walking or probably even alive without it.
Research who you go to thoroughly, as drs vary in their experience, cost, insurance coverage, etc. GetProlo.com in a fabulous resource.
And if Prolo didn't help you enough (someone above), it is most likely because you didn't have enough treatments, enough shots, a stronger solution used, or the lack of skill of the dr.
Prolo docs vary a lot, as do other docs.
