http://www.caringmedical.com/proloth...lotherapy-work
A 5% dextrose solution injected at areas of chronic constriction injury not only relieves the inflammation but also relieves the chronic constriction injury. This typically takes 5 to 10 weekly sessions, but can be curative. If it's real, it's very good. Here some more infos : http://drreeves.com/Treatment-Variat...l-Prolotherapy Seem to good to be true. |

I must say, TOS is exactly what is described here. So what the **** is it ?
It is called "Prolotherapy " : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proloth...ngoing_studies Fake or not ? I'm confused. "If the TRPV1 receptors remain activated, there is persistent neurogenic inflammation and interruption of axonal flow. This in turn does not allow nerve growth factors and other neural ingredients for healing to reach the injured nerve. There is subsequent degeneration of tissues, as tissues do not heal. This may help explain why people who suffer whiplash injuries have such persistent pain. Blocking the TRPV1 receptor is the best way to block the release of substance P and CGRP, and the transmission of pain signals by the C fibers." "The nerve is no longer swollen and easily crosses the small opening in the fascia. It regains its normal function, which is to maintain cell health. It is no longer a source of pain. This is the most exciting development in chronic pain management in over 50 years. That a simple dextrose in sterile water solution can relieve pain instantly and completely?" And seriously, read this : "Because unmyelinated C fibers are also found at the nerve root/ spinal level, and the nerve root can also suffer with compression injury, Dr. Howard Rosen and I experimented on injecting D5W into the spinal canal via caudal epidural approach to see if it would relieve low back pain. We found that it does in fact, produce relief of low back and leg pains instantly and completely! Amazingly, it also helps to relieve pain in patients with nonspecific low back pain and ones with peripheral polyneuropathy. "Dr. Howard Rosen and I, along with Dr. Dean Reeves, are currently conducting a prospective multicentered study on Sweet Caudal epidural cases and seeing the long-term outcomes of this amazing discovery. " http://prolohawaii.com/89-neural-pro...za-smigel.html http://search.informit.com.au/docume...961;res=IELHEA What do you think about it, and why we have never heard of it ? True, false, exaggerated ? Last edited by boytos; 09-01-2011 at 01:56 PM. |

The main problem is to locate the injury. I think termography must be done first.
