We trust everyone has had a wonderful week thus far. It is hard to believe that the summer is behind us, and September has rolled around!
September is Pain Awareness Month. People with pain often feel that the traditional medical model does not provide them the support that they need. Dr. Hauser, having done his residency training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, became acutely aware of this problem some 30 years ago.
Dr. Hauser has led our team in helping find alternative, curative treatment options for those suffering from chronic painful conditions. He quickly learned in his training that he did not want to fall into the traditional medical model of writing prescriptions for pain medications, giving steroid shots, and then just sending people for surgery. There had to be more out there. Hence his journey to Dr. Gustav Hemwall’s office on the recommendation of an 82-year-old friend, Gladys. Dr. Hemwall was in his 80’s when we met him. He learned Prolotherapy from the inventor, George Hackett, MD.
We coined the term Hackett-Hemwall-Hauser (H3) Prolotherapy as it is named after the line of doctors who pioneered and continue to advance the most comprehensive injection technique of Prolotherapy. We owe a great debt to these pioneers.
Those suffering from chronic painful conditions need our help. The H3 method of Prolotherapy can be performed on any joint in the body and multiple body parts can be treated at the same time. The 3 H doctors have shown that Prolotherapy can be safely performed in the office setting using simple proliferants that stimulate the patients’ own bodies to repair. Prolotherapy has advanced over the years with additional proliferants such as PRP and stem cell injections being used.
The key to addressing chronic painful conditions is to get at the root cause of the problem, not just mask it with drugs, as well as comprehensively treating the entire painful area(s) at all the attachments as well as inside of the joint(s).
We are so thankful to have been introduced to this wonderfully healing treatment so many years ago. Prolotherapy has given hope to many suffering with chronic pain, including ourselves, our families, and our staff.
Keeping people active for life!
