Muscular Back Pain

Muscular Back Pain Resolved With Prolozone

Patient Background

James visited Sano Via for Prolozone^TM therapy to treat his back pain of about 2 years’ duration. James was required to stand all day at work, and also did a lot of bending and lifting boxes. He believed the pain may have been work related. James had been treated by multiple practitioners previously, including doctors, physiotherapists, chiropractors and massage therapists, all with the same result: no improvement in pain. James was becoming depressed due to ongoing pain, which he felt he may be stuck with for the rest of his life.

Findings

James pointed out 3 distinct locations of pain on his back. These points were marked for Prolozone injection. None of the points were painful when pressure was applied.

Prolozone Treatment

Sano Via medical staff explained to James that Prolozone^TM may be useful. Risks and benefits were discussed. James decided to try the Prolozone due to very low risk level and good potential for pain reduction. With James lying comfortably face down, the areas to be injected were sterilized one at a time, then cooled with ethyl chloride spray for a few seconds to make the needle insertion painless. A fine needle was inserted into the muscles and fascia. Prolozone Anti-Inflammatory Formula (containing procaine and various natural medicines) was injected. This was followed by ozone injection at a precise concentration that is known to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation.

Immediate Pain Reduction

For the first time in 2 years, James felt pain reduction within minutes after the injections. All the pains had disappeared. This confirmed that the sources of pain were in fact the muscles and fascia (since they were anesthetized by the procaine). James felt so good that he went back to his full time job with no changes to his duties. Pain relief was sustained for about 1 week, then James returned for a second treatment. He reported that one of the painful spots was completely healed, and in 2 other spots, some pain had returned. When he attempted to point out painful spots, he had difficulty precisely locating them since the pains were far less than before. Two points were located and Prolozone therapy was repeated. Again there was immediate and dramatic reduction of pain following the injections.

Future Recommendations Including PRP

James was advised that the next series of injections should be performed with PRP (platelet-rich plasma), and that modification of duties at work would be mandatory for long-term treatment success. We also recommended analysis and correction of toxic substances in the body (such as heavy metals and pesticides), adjustment of vitamin D levels and testing for other factors that are known to contribute to slow healing.
