Treatments

IV Nutrient Therapy

IV nutrient therapies are used to treat a wide variety of conditions including acute and chronic infections such as pneumonia, hepatitis, mono, bronchitis, sinusitis just to name a few. In addition IV therapy therapy can be used for pain conditions such as fibromyagia, chronic fatigue, arthritis etc.

 

Myofascial Trigger Point Injection

Trigger point injection (TPI) may be an option in treating pain for some patients. TPI is a procedure used to treat painful areas of muscle that contain trigger points, or knots of muscle that form when muscles do not relax. Many times, such knots can be felt under the skin. Trigger points may irritate the nerves around them and cause referred pain, or pain that is felt in another part of the body.

 

What Happens During Trigger Point Injection?

In the TPI procedure, a health care professional inserts a small needle into the patient's trigger point. The injection contains a local anesthetic mixed with saline and vitamin B12. With the injection, the trigger point is made inactive and the pain is alleviated. Usually, a brief course of treatment will result in sustained relief. Injections are given in a doctor's office and usually take just a few minutes. Several sites may be injected in one visit. If a patient has an allergy to a certain medication, a dry-needle technique (involving no medications) can be used.

 

When Is Trigger Point Injection Used?

TPI is used to treat many muscle groups, especially those in the arms, legs, lower back, and neck. In addition, TPI can be used to treat fibromyalgia and tension headaches. TPI also is used to alleviate myofascial pain syndrome (chronic pain involving tissue that surrounds muscle) that does not respond to other treatments. However, the effectiveness of TPI for treating myofascial pain is still under study.

 

Injection Therapy

This is my primary tool for treating acute and chronic pain and injuries.  It is a form of non-surgical ligament reconstruction and is a permanent treatment for chronic pain. It can help reconstruct damaged or weakened connective tissue in and around joints. These substances are injected into the damaged connective tissue in and around a joint to rebuild the damaged areas.

 

My techniques are similar to Prolotherapy. with some key differences in the medicines I use, which ca cause the joint to typically heal more quickly than in traditional Prolotherapy. 

 

Heavy Metals Evaluation

One area of specialty is evaluation of heavy metals such as mercury and lead toxicity which have been linked to many disease states including autoimmunity, allergies, neurological conditions, hypothyroidism, hormone abnormalities, cardiovascular disease and cancer just to name a few.
