Episode30- Why It's Important to Be Well Conditioned Prior to Receiving Regenerative Injection Therapies.
I am often asked why I believe it is important to enter into regenerative injection therapies with some muscle on ones frame and why I am choosy in my patient selection. After a decade in practice, I am well aware that these therapies do not hold as well on patients who are deconditioned. I have lived it, as I was one of them in years past. Therapies like Prolotherapy and PRP do not hold as well when a person has their joints only hanging on by ligaments and tendons with little muscle to support their frames. I believe it to be most ethical to perform these treatments on patients who have the best chance of it working. I explain my thoughts on this as well as share case studies in this podcast episode.
