Due to an injury to the SI joint, I was experiencing severe debilitating pain 24 /7 for six months making sitting, walking, or sleeping difficult. Cortisone injections did not help the pain or mobility. After the first set of prolotheraphy injections, my pain was less and mobility improved. In just three months, I am nearly pain free with more mobility. It was like getting my life back! I liked having no drugs with adverse side effects as cortisone is known to have. I found Dr. Chappell to be very caring and knowledgeable. From personal experience, I would recommend prolotherapy for any joint injury.

Robert is a 72 year old gentleman with ongoing knee pain related to Osteoarthritis and recurrent swelling with activity. This was really interfering with his golf game. He has been told that he is a candidate for a total knee replacement, but does not feel ready. After learning about Robert and his future plans, we suggested a course of prolotherapy injections. The injections were repeated every 3-4 weeks for a total of 6 treatments. Robert opted for this option because it did not require any down time and he was able to continue golfing, even during the treatments. Following the treatments, Robert was very pleased since he was no longer experiencing swelling and had minimal discomfort, even when he opted to walk instead of ride while golfing.
