Has anyone had success with prolotherapy on TMJs?
How may sessions and months did it take? Were the clicking, grating, popping, pain, excessive lateral movement, abnormal bite,completely gone?
What kind of solutions were used for the injections? Who is the doctor that did the prolotherapy? Did the good effects last?

Hello Erin,

I can't help you with TMJs problems.
All I can tell you, I've had 4 prolo
treatments done on my back and I feel better.
No more pain in the back but I've a
long way to go. 15 years of chronic
pain and terrible symptoms can't be erased in a flash.

I go to Dr. Donna D. Alderman, D.O.
Glendal, CA, Tel.# (818) 957 3000
www.familydoc.la www.prolotherapy.com

There is a website in google that has a
link to all kinds of Dr. who are doing
those injections. Make sure he is the
the right Dr. Someone who had training
in the Gustav A. Hemwall, M.D. treatments.

I just don't know, how to give you that link.

I posted earlier and have not seen any reply.

Just wanted to talk about my experience.

Good luck to you and every few days, I
look at new post.

:) Karin

Karin,
Did you have one prolo treatment every month for 4 months? If you do not have pain anymore, what other things do you want prolotherapy to do for your back? When was the pain completely eliminated? Did you take dietary supplements or herbs, etc.?

By Karin on Thursday, September 20, 2001 - 04:33 pm:

Erin,
I still have some discomfort but nothing like
I had in April. And yes, I have every month
a treatment. Next week will be my 5th. I don't
know how many there will be after next week.
I also take herbal supplements.

The treatments are not cheap but "Health" comes first.

And to answer your question, I'm hoping that
Prolotherapy will strengthen my joints.

If you need more answers get the book called
"Prolo Your Pain Away"

Good luck. Karin
