To Angela and others...

I have also seen Dr. Wheaton from Excelsior, MN a number of times. The first in 2001. In a nutshell:

He gave me my life back. I dislocated both sides of my jaw in a 1997 water tubing accident. I lived in immense pain (head/neck/jaw) for years, at times unable to eat or even speak. The only options were to have surgery and risk facial paralization or try prolotherapy. Well, after 6 sessions, I am now 100% free of pain!!! Dr. Wheaton is a God fearing man and I don't feel like he is how you described him... Brodie (his office mgr) is alo a wonderful person.

There are no real long-term damaging effects from Prolo. There may be short-term irritation, but that's it. After my own experience and reading of other's, he is a miracle worker.

I don't believe there is any other way to strengthen ligaments once they have become lax. I am now in the process of strengthening my neck/back after years of self-cracking, the worst thing you can do to yourself. You see, when a ligament becomes lax, the muscles try to hold the bones/joints together. But they are not meant to, so the result is pain and irritation. Make the ligament strong and tight again, and inflamed area goes back to normal.

Has anyone ever tried fish oil instead of Sugar water? YOW!!!! It hurts about 10 times as bad, but positive effects start sooner. I had to lay on the table for about 10 minutes before I could even move afterwords... healing time as far as the immediate pain from the shots is the same as sugar. Tweet
