Keep reading to learn more about our alternative pain relief methods:
Prolotherapy
Dr. Chad Edwards is the only certified prolotherapist in Tulsa, Oklahoma and his expertise makes him the top choice for those who haven’t found relief from traditional chiropractors and medical professionals. So what is prolotherapy? It is an injection treatment that is administered directly to the area of injury or pain that triggers your body’s natural immune response and encourages your body to begin working to heal itself. Prolotherapy is not necessarily a cure, but it is absolutely an effective alternative pain relief method you should know about that’s less invasive and more affordable than surgery.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet rich plasma or PRP is a regenerative treatment similar to prolotherapy that includes additional growth factors that support collagen production and tissue repair. PRP has helped many patients restore function and experience less pain, so what type of musculoskeletal conditions are prolotherapy and PRP beneficial for? Here are a few examples– joint, ligament, or tendon tears or strains, osteoarthritis, herniated disks, fibromyalgia, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, certain types of chronic headaches, and other types of back, neck, shoulder, and knee pain. While prolotherapy is typically less expensive and usually covered by insurance, PRP can cost a bit more and even require out-of-pocket payment; however, we are confident that we can find a treatment option that fits your budget.
Stem Cell Therapy
Patients who require a more aggressive treatment while also avoiding surgery should know about stem cell therapy. It’s another of the alternative pain relief methods we provide that optimizes healing and growth by injecting a concentrated amount of stem cells into the affected area. These cells are the building blocks for tissue repair and restoration and can be taken from your bone marrow or adipose tissue (fat cells) via a simple and virtually painless procedure done in our office. You can also choose to receive donated stem cells instead. The optimal method is to combine all 3 types of stem cells for the most comprehensive treatment possible.
Naturopathic Medicine
Our naturopathic services include a wide range of herbal remedies and functional medicine therapies that not only improve pain but also improve your overall health from the inside out. Diana Edwards is our certified traditional naturopath on staff, and she is trained in a number of specialties, including acupressure, stress management, relaxation techniques, energy medicine, and more. With a whole-body approach to wellness, we can give you the tools you need to support your body’s natural healing process.
