Prolotherapy to the Low Back

Ross Hauser, MD demonstrates a typical Prolotherapy procedure to the low back, as done at Caring Medical and Rehabilitation Services in Oak Park, Illinois. Dr. Hauser treats patients from around the globe with Hackett-Hemwall Prolotherapy and has found it is an excellent alternative to back surgery, including spinal fusion and discectomy, in addition to offering permanent solution for chronic pain typically not seen with traditional anti-inflammatory treatment, such as NSAIDs and cortisone injections. If you would like to see our other videos on Prolotherapy, or would like to email Dr. Hauser to see if Prolotherapy can help your low back pain, please visit www.caringmedical.com. Prolotherapy can be successful in treating almost all chronic back pain conditions and injuries, including: sports injuries, osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, tendon injury, ligament injury, bulging disc, herniated disc, sciatica, sacroiliac pain, spondylolisthesis, pinched nerve, and radiculopathy.

I had this done for my Sacroiliac joint and it cost $5,200. I went one time and it did nothing for me. I just about shit my pants when I got the bill. The whole procedure took less than 15 minutes. I was supposed to go 3 times but there is no way I could afford it.

@northIdahofolks Thanks for the comment. Typically the procedure goes fast. In our office it takes only a few minutes, as you saw in the video. The cost per Prolotherapy treatment for the low back, with a comprehensive amount of injections as done here, is $600 per treatment.

Dr Hauser my ligaments crack not my actuall spine what does that mean i have back pain and tightness!

[skinkisd]

@LucaBlightBadass cracking and popping happens because the ligaments are lax and holding the joints together too loosely. Then the back muscles have to do the job of the ligaments and they get overworked, spasm, tight, etc... You can see our other videos on this topic under "caringmedical" and we would be happy to talk to you more about your case if you are interested in having an appointment. You can contact us directly to discuss your case more privately. Take care for now.

@FRANK22131 Thanks for the comment. Low back pain is one of the most common conditions we treat, and we are often the 6th, 7th, etc... doctor someone has seen for back pain. Prolotherapy is regenerative medicine that works to correct the root cause of the problem permanently without surgery or long term care. We would be happy to see you for a consultation. Feel free to email us directly on our website or call to discuss your case in more detail. Take care for now. : )

Prolotherapy is NOT going to regenerate anythig but the Dr's bank account!!!!!!!!!! Want my testimony? Feel free to contact me.

Dont do Prolotherapy!!!!!!!! It DOES NOT WORK, I had 6 sessions for my low back and my knees. My back pain is worst than ever, actually the Dr hurt my mid back , so my problem was low back, now is mid back too because of the shots. My two knees got really bad after all sesions. I went there looking for relief and now Im suffering way more than before Prolotherapy. Insurance DOES NOT cover any of it. And the shots are like you are in hell. You can feel every single shot right in your bones.
