Our Patient’s Stories

 

When I came to Dr. Reser, I was in excruciating pain. I have been in pain for the past 3.5 years. The funny bone area of my elbow was painful with every move. Dr. Reser assured me we would be able to immediately relieve the pain and, throughout treatments, ultimately remove the pain. At this point I was ready to do any treatment just to stop the pain. During the process the pain was relieved and, eventually as promised, the pain was removed. I am grateful for the prolotherapy treatments and even more grateful for Dr. Greg Reser. Thank you!

I am 38 years old and an avid weight lifter as my way to keep in shape. For close to two years, I suffered from pain in my shoulder and elbow that impeded my ability to exercise the way I wanted. I tried deep tissue massage, physical therapy, dry needling and the use of a chiropractor. All of these efforts did not fix the damage but acted as a temporary fix for the pain. I was referred to Prolotherapy by a personal trainer that I know. (After the first treatment I immediately saw a reduction in the amount of pain associated with both areas (shoulder and elbow). The amazing part about the treatment was that unlike my previous experiences, with prolotherapy the pain did not return to the original state. After 5 treatments the pain is gone. It is hard for me to believe that something that plagued me for so long is actually 100% cured, but it is the truth.) If you are suffering from any type of muscular, nerve or tendon pain, I highly recommend the use of Prolotherapy. Greg Reser, M.D. is extremely knowledgeable and I felt extremely comfortable with his care plan, and can say that is has been a huge success for me.

“I have been going to Dr. Reser for about 4 months now for lumbar, and glute pain. Before I found him I was in constant pain for 3 years. I have tried all different kinds of rehabbing for my back including; chiropractors, physical therapists, acupuncturists, Rolfing, steroid shots, cortisone shots and more. Nothing worked, until I went to Dr. Reser. After the first session I was a bit sore for a few days and to my astonishment my pain was completely gone. I went from getting treatments a couple times a week to about once a month and I am still pain free. I now no longer live in pain and am able to do things that I physically couldn’t do for the past three years. I am so thankful for everything that Dr. Reser has done to help me to get my back healthy and not be in pain. He took such a high interest in getting me better, more than anyone that I have gone to for my back and he completely changed my life. I would highly recommend prolo-therapy to anyone in pain because it changed my life so drastically.”

Low Back Pain

“Over the course of several months I developed a sharp, debilitating pain in my elbow. This started happening when I swung a golf club, and progressively got worse. I could no longer do a pushup, or even lift light weights over my head. Anytime I extended my arm with any weight at all, I would get a shooting pain that was almost unbearable. Even trying to get up from an airplane seat was a challenge. My primary care physician treated the problem with several cortisone shots, but there was no improvement. I had to modify almost everything I did at the gym, so my trainer recommended seeing Dr. Reser for Prolotherapy. At my first appointment, after a series of injections, Dr. Reser asked me to a pushup – just minutes after treatment. I was hesitant, knowing that trying a pushup before the treatment would have meant certain pain. I dropped to the floor and – painless! I did several more pushups with no pain whatsoever. Amazing! Since that first visit, I’ve had several additional Prolotherapy injections as a follow-up, but since that first appointment I have had zero pain in my elbow! I’m playing golf, lifting weights, and even doing the dreaded pushups – all pain free.”

Elbow Pain

“My sciatica was gone after my first treatment. I have gotten significant, long term relief of my once, chronic neck and shoulder pain. Prolotherapy has helped my pain more than any other therapy I’ve tried over the past 16 years.”
