The student docs where
getting more confident in their techniques’. Our goal, as directors is to see
if they could at least treat a knee or shoulder alone and with confidence by
the time they leave.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They will still
continue to improve but this is a good start.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Of course, as with the first week, there is always an endless stream of patients
to treat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Every day we had to limit the
sign in at about 55-60 patients. This still meant that we would treat patients until
about 5 or 5:30.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We would start each day
at 8am with a half an hour lecture on one of the joints, back or neck. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And later on that day, another half an hour (or
more) of lecture either at lunch or at the end of the day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These lectures are mostly given by the
directors and other upper level instructors.</div>

tour.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had been a few times but did not
go this time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But the stories and what
they saw were the same or even worse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Now when one is scheduled for surgery, you are given a list of items you
need to bring.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>30 gauze pads, sutures,
stitches, antibiotics and more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you
cannot bring them, then no surgery. And the hospital cannot afford it as they
are only given money by the government which has so little.</div>

at the restaurant where we eat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is
a local place that is well known. The restaurant is very rustic and eclectic
and Erika has been serving us lunch and dinner for many years now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She decorates the place up and makes us all
wear different hats - see photos.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There
was a large American flag hanging up as well as red, white and blue table cloth
with small little American flags. She had a DJ there playing music so a fun
time was had by all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Everyone, including
the translators and others that helped us were invited, ate dinner and danced
for a few hours. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We all had a great

<span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-style: normal;">Today was an emotional one for
me. One of my student docs got a patient that really hit me hard.
He was a 13 year old boy who had lost his leg when he was eight years old. He
got hit by a car and lost his left leg above his knee (this means almost no chance

his right knee was now hurting. And he was having difficulties using his
crutches due to the right knee (the good one) pain.</span></i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the whole procedure. I performed it and my student doc assisted me.
This was done since speed was a factor because the young boy could
only bend his knee for a short while without pain and due to his age, as he was
very anxious and crying. All in all, he did well with the
procedure. We also referred them to the local physical therapy place in town
that the foundation built. Hopefully they will go next week.</span></i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

for them. She thanked me profusely. I had to borrow this from
another doc as I had only a little local money. I told her to buy him
something nice. As they were leaving one of the translators told me that
the woman with him was not his mother but is grandmother. We caught up
with them right before the door and I asked her where his parents were.
She said the father was almost unknown as he left before his kid was
born. And when he lost his leg his mother (this women’s daughter), took
off illegally to the US and wants nothing to do with him. It was all I could
do to hold back tears. I gave her the rest of the local money I had in my
pocket (about 50 Lempiras) and wished her well. She gave me a big hug and
thanked me for everything.</span></i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

normal day. We went to the clinic to start seeing patients at 8am. We
finished at 10:30am so that we could go back to the hotel to pack up and
leave to Roatan for the weekend. We have to go to LA Ceiba to fly over to
Roatan, a small island off the coast. SO first it’s a three hour ride to LA
Ceiba airport. On the way there, it started to rain. Once there we
waiting about 90 minutes before getting on the plane. Then we just sat
there. This was in a small, propeller driven, 19 seater plane. There were
no pilots on board- one could see this as it is an open cockpit. It was very
hot and humid in the plane. Fortunately they left the back door open, so
I so stood by it to get some air. It was raining so we were just hanging
out on the plane. I asked a ground crew member what was happening and he
just pointed at the cloudy sky and shrugged his shoulders. Finally I ran back
to the terminal and asked what was happening. They said that the airport
was closed and that we could all wait in the terminal. Why they did not
tell us that before, who knows. Back in the terminal, we met up with the
other two clinic members who were on the planes after ours. We waited almost
three hours. At one point they brought out a jet (the other planes were
propellers until and after 30mins said the plane was ready but that the
airport- tower- was officially closed. SO it was back to the hotel and check into
it and had dinner and hopefully go in the am</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">PS all this movement and
going back to the hotel (where we do not have reservations) and getting dinner
is not easy as we are a group of 75 people. And cancelling our reservations in
Roatan. Plus we had a restaurant reserved for Roatan that the foundation has a
dinner for everyone. All that needed to be cancelled.</span><br />

closed. So after going out to the airport early, just in case it opened,
we made a group decision to stay in La Ceiba and cancel our weekend get a way
in Roatan. So no diving for me and a few others. C'est al vie. La Ceiba
has a mall, movie theater and a gym. While some went to the mall or a movie, I
and several others went to the gym. We all then spent the rest of the day
catching up on e-mails and conversations with the others. Sunday we all
returned to our respective clinics to start again on Monday.</span> </span><br />

three hours to the mountain town of Olanchito, where the clinic is located.
Fairly rural town of 40,000 but with the surrounding mountains and valley there
is a population of 120,000 altogether. Only about 10-15 roads in town are
paved, so travel, even by car, is slow once you get here. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

We went to the hall that will be our clinic and unpacked the boxes (some sent by us and some left here) to setup the clinic. Our rooms are basically poles that we put together and sheets from the polls. This all took about 3 hours. You can see from the pictures here that we start with a bare room and end up with a clinic. Plus getting all the supplies that go in the rooms organized (syringes, needle, sharps containers, tables, sheets, etc.) to be prepared for the am. Afterwards, we went to an open air restaurant for a good meal and then back to the hotel for a much needed rest.<br />

two weeks is always hectic. Not only am I gone for the two weeks, but the
office gets very busy prior to that. Anyhow, after an overnight flight to
Miami, I arrived to receive a hug from my mom. I could fly directly
thru Dallas, but choose to go via Miami just so I can see my mom. She lives
about half an hour from the airport. At 87 she is still very 'young' and
vibrant. She swims or walks six days a week in the pool for 30-40
minutes. And volunteers at hospital (22 years+) one day a week. And
plays bridge four times a week at a Bridge Club. And more. I guess I get my energy
from her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

me and my mom and brother. My brother lives in Florida and drove her to the
airport. All three of us had a nice leisurely breakfast at the airport hotel
overlooking the runways. Then it was on to Honduras. I arrived on
time at 3pm but my luggage was an another story. After taking a
short flight to LA Ceiba (our headquarter town), I met up with the group.
It is always nice getting together with colleagues that I have not seen in a
year and meeting the new doc too. My bags arrived at midnight, which was
a relief. This morning I was able to go down to the water and go for a swim in
the 80 degree ocean. At 1pm today, Sunday the 24th, the Olanchito (my
clinic town) group will leave for the three hour drive up to this mountain town.
More later.</span></span><br />

<br />
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
Dear All,</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
In March of this year I again volunteered as a physician with the Hackett-Hemwall Foundation (HHF) in Honduras. Every year, I look forward to donating my time in this third work county. The foundation takes over 100 physicians and volunteers each year to Honduras. These physicians come from the US and around the world not only to treat the local people but to be taught the art of Prolotherapy. We also invite several Honduran Medical Physicians who are doing their residency training to join us.</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
<a href="http://www.drfields.com/prolotherapy.html" target="_blank">Prolotherapy</a> is an injection technique that requires skill and training. The two weeks begins with an eight hour day of lectures in which I gave a one hour lecture on the knee. Then we move off to each of the three towns to set up the clinics. The HHF has three clinics in Honduras and I was the co-Director of the Olanchito clinic, a small town in the mountains where we use a local community center as our clinic.</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
Every day there are many people lined up waiting for us as we arrive at the clinic at 8am. we see between 60-90 patients a day. People come from all over to have their joints treated. In one of the eight individual 'rooms' (loose term since in my clinic we have sheets hung from metal tubing as the framework) there are two 'student' physicians and one supervisor physician. The other co-director and I either supervised in one area each or moved around the treatment areas to help out wherever we were needed.</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
The days go by fast. Each day at noon we take a break and give a one hour lecture and a demonstration of treating an area of the body. By 5:30 or 6pm, after seeing between 60-80 pts, the day is done. It is then off to dinner and back to the hotel for the night. The mid weekend we go over to a resort island off the coast of Honduras for a break. Then it is back for another week's work. All in all, the experience is always very enjoyable and rewarding.</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
Treating those in need and teaching others is very special for me. The patients come from near and far and sometimes take days to get to us. They then line up early and wait many hours to be treated. Honduras is one of the poorest countries in all of the Americas and the people subsist on very little. Every year, they are always very grateful for all we offer. Seeing how we can make a difference in their lives is something that I cherish.</div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-top: 12px;">
The HHF (<a href="http://www.hacketthemwall.org/" target="_blank">www.hacketthemwall.org</a>) is the nation's leading educational and teaching organization for Prolotherapy. It is run by two very special and dedicated people: Dr Jeff Patterson, the Medical Director and Mary Doherty, the Director of Operations. Their commitment to the foundation and to the Honduras Project is unparalleled. I am very proud to be associated with them not only in Honduras, but as an instructor/lecturer at the only US based Medical School course on Prolotherapy held annually at the University of Wisconsin Medical School.</div>

The rest of the week went smoothly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The docs that where being trained in <a href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy</a> where more confident in their injections techniques and therefore needed less supervision.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We let them work up patients on their own and call for us when they felt that they needed help or to show them something. We treat lots of knees, backs, shoulders, necks and all other joints too.That's because <a href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolo</a> works! One of the docs with us from Puerto Rico was interviewed on local TV about Prolotherapy. Our dentist, Dr Disbel Mansilla, was interviewed about the dental side of things.</p>
<p>
On Wednesday evening, after dinner at Erica’s Café, we had a farewell party.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Erica had arranged to have a DJ.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So we all ended up dancing for a while with the encouragement of Disbel, who is avid dancer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She would go around and get people up one by one when they were just sitting around.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Plus Erica had all kinds of hats for us so it was a good time for all. After the dancing we did karaoke, and I even sang “My Girl” for mi novia (girlfriend).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></p>
<p>
Thursday we only worked for two hours in the am and then had to leave to get back to the main town, La Ceiba. Once there we all did a bit of gift shopping and then got ready for the final evening party for all three clinics.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was held at the main hotel where we all stay in that town.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After drinks and appetizers, we all went into a room where Dr. Jeff Patterson, director of the <a href="http://www.hacketthemwall.org/">Hackett-Hemwall Foundation</a>, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>spoke for about 30 minutes <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>about the foundation, our trip and acknowledged a few of the pertinent people. As co-director of the Olanchito clinic, I was asked to say a few rods.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Disbel, as the second week dentist, also was asked to say a few words.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then we all went outside poolside, for the final dinner and to say goodbye to the new friends that we all made over these two weeks and to the old friends that we sometimes only see once or twice a year.</p>
<p>
The next am we all made our way to the next town, San Pedro Sula, where the flights leave back to the US. Disbel and I flew to Miami to spend another 24 hrs with my mom and brother.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is always a great way to end my trip. The next am I went for a swim in the Atlantic Ocean (nice warm water) and while Disbel ran on the beach. We then went back to my mom’s for a brunch.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My aunt Shirley came by and we got to show her, my mom and brother all the pictures of our trip.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then it was a 5 ½ hr flight back to Los Angeles.</p>
<p>
This is my sixth year and it always gets better. The people of Honduras have so little and appreciate whatever one can do for them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They are very grateful and thankful for whatever we can offer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The feeling one gets form doing this is without words. Thank you all for taking the time to read this.</p>
<p>
All the best,</p>
<p style="line-height: normal;">

<p>
PS Anyone wanting to contribute items (clothing, school supplies, or whatever) I only ask that they either be dropped off at my office or shipped directly to Wisconsin for the January shipping down to Honduras.</p>
<p>

<p>
If you or anyone else would like to volunteer time with us next year, please let me know and I will start the process of getting signed up. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>Anyone is encouraged to volunteer and many high school and college students love the experience it gives them.</p>

This is my first blog- so I apologize for any misspellings or grammatical errors.<br />This is my sixth trip to Honduras. Since one must overnight somewhere, instead of Houston, I fly via Miami on the red eye so I can have breakfast with my mom and brother, who live about 40 minutes from the airport.<br />This flight was not as quiet as most. Just as I was about to fall asleep, they asked for a doc on board. After identifying myself (with my state issued license too- the airlines can't be too careful!),<br />A woman was not feeling well. After determining that she had not eaten or drank for over 12 hrs after taking her oral medicine for diabetes, I was able to handle this without any problems. Unfortunately it took two different trips back to her at different times, so I barley got any sleep. Shades of residency days!<br />As usual, I met my mom and brother Norman at the airport hotel and we spent about three hours over a leisurely breakfast. At 86 , my mom is a fairly good shape and it is always great to see her and my brother. Then it was onto another flight to Honduras.

Then had a nice leisurely breakfast with her and my bother who came with her to the airport. After several hours with them, it was an hour and 40 minute flight to Honduras where I ran into half a dozen on my colleagues on the plane. After clearing customs most of the crowd was already there waiting in the airport. It was a re-union as I have worked with some of these people for the past five years. Then a three car ride to La Ceiba, not only our base city, but the city I will be working in. It is a pleasant town of about 170,000 people. The next day we had lectures for 8+ hrs as this is also an educational experience (continuing education credits given by the University of Wisconsin Medical School).<br /><br />After the introduction by Dr Jeff Patterson (the head of the </span><a href="http://www.hacketthemwall.org/HHF/WELCOME.html"><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">Hackett Hemwall Organization</span></a><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">)<br /><br />I gave the first lecture of the day starting at 8am. It was a lecture on the knee which took over 20 hrs to prepare! It was well received by all. This was followed by many other lectures form different colleagues of mine on various topics. This took all day until 5:30pm. I then gave the final lecture of the day titled "How to Present <a style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy</a> to Potential Patients and other Colleagues". This lecture received many praises as many physicians do not know how to do get the Prolo word out. Plus <a style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy</a> is natural and non-mainstream which requires additional explanation.<br /><br />Sunday was a day off but some of us helped to organize the La Ceiba Clinic. Of course I was there as I will be the director of the clinic. The other two clinic gourps left at noon for their respective cites. I will see them again next weekend as we go to the coastal Honduran Island of Roatan for a break.<br /><br />We were left with 25 people for the clinic - 18 docs and 6 helpers.<br /><br />Monday I start work as the director of the LA Ceiba Clinic. </span><p></p><br /><p><strong><a id="2" name="2"></a>PART 2<br /><br /></strong>Dear All,<br /><br />The first week is now over and all went well. The first day was quite hectic. I was in charge of all 19 doctors and four of the helpers. Plus we had translators from a school here in La Ceiba, who I also was responsible for.<br /><br />After getting everyone orientated, we began seeing patients. We saw a total of 64 patients the first day which was quite a lot considering that every area had one student and one teacher. I was the floater, going wherever I was needed to explain a procedure or demonstrate it. The clinic is opened from 8am until about 5:3opm with an hour break for lunch.<br /><br />Since this is a teaching situation, we have half an hour lecture every morning at breakfast on basic anatomy. At lunch we have the second half of the lecture which is orthopedic tests and injection procedures. Later at dinner, we discuss any unusual cases or whatever else someone has questions on. ,I gave the first days lecture on the knee. The other days were assigned to the instructor doctors.<br /><br />In addition to the above, during the day I have to make up that mornings or afternoons assignment (which instructor with which student), handle all problems with the running of the clinic, meet with Red Cross people (we are using their building) and even do an interview with a local TV station. Plus I am the roving doc in the clinic, going to whatever station needs help to either demonstrate or do an injection. So very busy but exiting too. All the days went well.<br /><br />Now that the week is over, we all flew to Roatan, a laid back resort island off the coast of Honduras. We will be here for the weekend to relax and have some fun before we head back early Monday am.<br /><br />That is about it for now.<br /><br />PS I still get to work out almost daily. Four or five of us get up early am to either run, swim or go to the local gym.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />Peter A. Fields MD. DC.<br /><br />Pacific <a href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy</a> and Medical Wellness Center<br /></p><p><br /></p><p><strong><a id="3" name="3"></a>PART 3<br /><br /></strong>Dear All,<br /></p><p>After the first week, we took a break and the group went to the island or Roatan, just 15 miles off the coast of Honduras. Roatan is laid back Caribbean island where English is the primary language. The activities included scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, zip lining, swimming, and running, biking, laying on the beach or just doing nothing. A very relaxing time for all. Five of us (myself included) went scuba diving on Saturday and it was excellent. Friday Night we had buffet dinner at a restaurant overlooking the water. It was a time to get to see the whole group as we had split up a week ago. This evening was sponsored by the foundation. Saturday and Sunday we were on our own.<br /><br />Monday it was back to the clinics. The week went smoothly again. As a note, our translators came form the #1 bilingual school in all of Honduras. Very mature and well educated kids ranging from the 9th to the 12th grade. All spoke english without a trace of an accent and were applying to US Universities. One girl spoke, wrote and read four languages (spanish, english, french and german) fluently! Since one of my student docs was from Switzerland, he also spoke german.<br /><br />I was always busy since as the floater doc (not attached to any one person or room),<br /><br />I was the one that people came to when there was something that they were unsure of or needed help with. This week I let most of the docs work on their own in a treatment area to give them a feel for the real world. This kept me even busier than the last week with all their questions. Plus there were many other clinic concerns to be aware of. But all in all it was great week. Thursday night we had a farewell party at the Ex-Pat’s restaurant for all of the 75 + people involved. Dr Jeff Patterson, the head of the organization, spoke about the accomplishments of this 40th year anniversary trip to Honduras. All three clinic directors were given praises and a chance to address the entire group. I also had made a poem up to acknowledge the great efforts of Dr. Patterson and Mary Doherty (his partner), who run the Hackett-Hemwall Foundation. The next day, Friday, we left for our trip back to our respective counties, which included the US, Canada, Mexico, Nicaragua, Italy, Switzerland, South Africa and more.<br /><br />One last glitch was that a civil strike was planned for that day in which they were going to shut down all the major roads at 5 or 6am. So to be sure that we all got to the airport on time, our buses left at 4am. Since it was a late night with the farewell party, when we got to the airport 5-7 hrs prior to our flights, a lot of catch of sleeping was done.<br /><br />That is about it.<br /><br />Again, it was very rewarding for me to be able to donate my time and effort to this third world country and at the same time help train more physicians in <a href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy</a>.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to read all of this.

Regular physical activity can also help with weight management. Below are just a few of the benefits of staying active.<br /><br /><strong>Weight Control.</strong><br />Regular activity can help to decrease body fat by preserving and /or building muscle mass. It can also increase ones metabolism which improves the body's ability to burn off calories. When physical activity is combined with good nutrition, it can help control weight and prevent obesity, both which are major risk factors for many diseases.<br />Bone strengthRegular weight-bearing exercise promotes bone formation and may prevent many forms of bone loss associated with aging (osteoporosis).<br /><br /><strong>Heart Disease and Stroke.</strong><br />Regular physical activity can help prevent these two diseases. Exercise can improve blood flow and increase your heart's working capacity. It also can strengthen your heart muscle, lower your blood pressure, raise your HDL levels (good cholesterol) and lower LDL levels (bad cholesterol). It can also help with decreasing the risk for peripheral vascular disease.<br /><br /><strong>High Blood Pressure.</strong><br />Regular physical activity can reduce blood pressure. Physical activity can also reduce body fat, which is associated with high blood pressure.<br /><br /><strong>Type 2 Diabetes</strong><br />By reducing body fat, physical activity can help to prevent and control this type of diabetes.<br /><br /><strong>Mood Enhancer</strong><br />Regular physical activity can improve your mood and the way you feel about yourself. Researchers have found that people that exercise regularly are more likely to manage stress in addition to reducing anxiety and depression<br /><br />Peter A.

Calling cancer “mostly preventable” researchers found 43% of colon and 42% of breast cancer in the U.K., 45% of bowel and 38% of breast cancer in the U.S., and other cancers, like prostate and pancreas, could be avoided with healthier lifestyles and diets consisting of more fruits and vegetables and less meat and dairy; Reuters reports<br /><br />No real shocker here. Foods high in saturated fat, i.e. meat and dairy, are constantly being linked to cancer, like adenocarcinomas and carcinoid tumors in the small intestine, disease progression after prostate cancer surgery, and dioxin, a toxic compound found butter and cheese, is a prominent risk-factor for cancer. So don’t be like this dope and ignore everything and only eat bacon for a month!<br /><br />Now, flip the script for a second, fruits and vegetables have the opposite effect on cancer. Recently, research determined sulforaphane, a chemical found in green veggies like broccoli, induces enzymes that protect against cancer and eating 28 servings of vegetables a week can cut the risk of prostate cancer by 33%. And fruits, like pomegranates, are packed with cancer-fighting antioxidants.Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08135940032427606725noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613281237757388085.post-18221820268958519872009-02-17T17:28:00.000-08:002009-02-17T17:39:09.527-08:00Chronic Pain, Prolotherapy May be Able to HelpMany of us have aches or pains that just won’t go away no matter what we do.<br />Medications, rest, physical therapy, acupuncture, manipulation, etc.<br />Somehow that pain either never goes away or just keeps coming back.<br />But one thing many of us have not tried is Prolotherapy.<br /><br />Prolotherapy is a technique that helps to stimulate the body’s ability to repair a painful area when the natural healing process is not enough. In most cases <a href="http://www.drfields.com">Prolotherapy is effective at eliminating chronic pain due to ligament and tendon weakness</a> 80 to 90 percent of the time.<br /><br />You might wonder why you still have pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after a healing period of weeks, months or years. The answer lies in the fact that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation. These areas may have little or no blood flow, but they have lots of nerves. When they become weak, nerves around the ligaments and tendons become stretched and irritated which produces pain.<br /><br />Prolotherapy involves the injection of a solution that causes an inflammatory response which stimulates the healing process. This results in a stronger or larger tendon or ligament that can the hold body structures in place more effectively. <br /> The weakened area heals, and the patient's pain is reduced or eliminated. It is also an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which long term studies have shown to actually weaken tissue.<br /><br />Most patients require about 6 treatments to restore function and relieve pain. The treatments are usually given at about 3 week intervals.<br /><br />In addition to chronic pain, Prolotherapy is effective in <a href="http://www.drfields.com">back pain & neck pain, shoulder pain</a>, <a href="http://www.drfields.com">knee pain</a>, and other <a href="http://www.drfields.com">joint pain</a>; tendonitis, <a href="http://www.drfields.com">arthritis</a>, herniated discs and headaches. And if you have a <a href="http://www.drfields.com">sports injury</a>, look no further than Prolotherapy. If it involves a tendon or ligament, chances are prolotherapy will help.Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08135940032427606725noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613281237757388085.post-73575326956750720432009-02-16T15:47:00.000-08:002009-02-16T15:58:26.083-08:00Hypertension May Impair Ones CognitionNow keeping ones blood pressure under control has an added reward. If you have high blood pressure, this may affect your cognition - the act or process of knowing; perception. Now research suggests that hypertension may affect older people’s cognitive abilities. This may suggests that stressful situations could impair their ability to think clearly.<br /><br /> Researchers at North Carolina State University studied 36 men and women aged 60 to 87, twice a day for 60 days. After having their blood pressure taken participants were asked to complete a number of cognitive function tests. Results showed that the performance of participants whose average systolic (the top number) blood pressure was 130 or higher dropped significantly when their blood pressure spiked. However the same deterioration of cognitive functioning was not seen in participants whose average systolic blood pressure was low or normal. <br /><br />Study co-author Dr Jason Allaire said that the results revealed a link between blood pressure spikes in seniors with high blood pressure and a decrease in their inductive reasoning. "Inductive reasoning is important because it is essentially the ability to work flexibly with unfamiliar information and find solutions," said Allaire in a news release.<br /><br /> New Study Shows High Blood Pressure May Make it Difficult for the Elderly to Think Clearly.

In most cases of knee injuries, there is a weakening of the tendons or ligaments supporting the knee. Sometimes there is even a tear. Usually this is described as a partial tear. This also means that whatever is partially torn is also partially attached. The patient's best option is always to first try to and get these areas which are damaged to repair themselves.<br /><br />The best way to do this: Prolotherapy. <a href="http://www.drfields.com">Prolotherapy</a> works by stimulating the body's healing system, therefore making this a natural way to get better. The technique involves the injection of various solutions that cause a mild inflammatory response that turns on the healing process. The growth of new ligament and tendon tissue is then stimulated. Prolotherapy can be done exactly where the ligaments or tendons attach and insert, and thereby stimulate the ligament on both ends to proliferate and strengthen.<br /><br />The ligaments and tendons produced after Prolotherapy appear much the same as normal tissues, except that they are thicker, stronger, and contain fibers of varying thickness.<br /><br />Many patients have avoided surgery using Prolotherapy. Common <a href="http://www.drfields.com">knee injuries include the ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament), the medial or lateral collateral ligaments, strained muscles insertions (tendons), pain from a torn meniscus and even chondromalacia (soreness under the knee cap).</a><br /><br />In addition many other <a href="http://www.drfields.com">knee problems</a> and pains have been fixed using <a href="http://www.drfields.com">Prolotherapy</a>.<br /> The best advice is to try a non-surgical approach to your injury by trying Prolotherapy first.Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08135940032427606725noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613281237757388085.post-7566817915233884192009-01-30T16:16:00.000-08:002009-01-30T16:23:10.566-08:00Fix Your Joint Pain Without Surgery!<p align="center"><strong><span class="style2"><span class="style3"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span></span></span></strong><br /> </p> <p style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;" class="style17" align="center"><a href="http://www.drfields.com"><span style="font-size:130%;">ARTHRITIS, JOINT PAIN & SPORTS INJURIES</span></a><br /> <br /> CAN PROLOTHERAPY HELP?</p> <p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;" class="style5" align="center">Free Lecture in Santa Monica</p> <p class="style10" align="center"><a href="http://drfields.co">Prolotherapy</a> is a <u>natural non-surgical</u> method of assisting<br /> the body to heal injured or weakened joints, ligaments and<br /> tendons.

Cortisone and other steroid injections all have the same detrimental effects on articular cartilage.<br /><br />Corticosteroids (steroids), such as cortisone and Prednisone, have an adverse effect on bone and soft tissue healing. They inhibit the synthesis of proteins, collagen, and Proteoglycans in articular cartilage, by inhibiting chondrocyte production, the cells that comprise and produce the articular cartilage. The net catabolic (breakdown) effect of steroids is inhibition of fibroblast production of collagen, ground substance, and new blood vessel formation. The result is weakened synovial joints, supporting structures, articular cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. This weakness increases the pain and the increased pain leads to more steroid injections.<br /><br />Steroids also limit calcium absorption by the gastrointestinal tract, inactivate vitamin D and increasing the urinary excretion of calcium. Bone also shows a decrease in calcium uptake with cortisone use, ultimately leading to weakness at the fibro-osseous junction. Corticosteroids also inhibit the release of growth hormone, which further decreases soft tissue and bone repair. Ultimately, corticosteroids lead to a decrease in bone, ligament, and tendon strength.<br /><br />Although anti-inflammatory medications and steroid injections reduce pain, they do so at the cost of destroying tissue. In one study, some joints were injected only one time. Even after one steroid injection, cartilage remained biochemically and metabolically impaired. Other studies have confirmed similar harmful effects of steroids on joint and cartilage tissue. A cortisone shot can permanently <a href="http://www.drfields.com">damage joints</a>. <a href="http://www.drfields.com">Prolotherapy</a> has the opposite effect—it permanently strengthens joints, ligaments, and tendons.<br /><br />Some professional athletes and weekend warriors want quick relief. The problem with cortisone is that the athlete may get pain relief, but it may be at the expense of permanent inability to participate in athletics. Athletes often receive cortisone shots in order to play. They return to the playing field with an injury after getting a steroid injection to relieve the pain. Unfortunately, they cannot feel the pain anymore so they play as if there was no injury. We know (see above) that the injury could not possibly be healed because of the tremendous anti-healing properties of cortisone. Thus the athlete is further injured from the cortisone, as well as playing with an injury, thereby worsening the already bad injury.<br /><br />Bottom line- get a “quick fix” with steroid injections and set yourself up for further damage. Or fix your Problem for good with <a href="http://www.drfields.com">Prolotherapy</a>.

How much of the practice is dedicated to Prolotherapy? At least 50% of the doctor’s practice should be Prolotherapy and better if it is more.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>2. Does the doctor do <a href="http://www.drfields.com/">Prolotherapy on every joint (back, knee’s shoulder, neck, ankle, feet, wrist, hand</a>, etc)? If not, then ask why.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. Does the doctor do the Prolotherapy himself? Only a skilled, trained MD or DO should be doing the injections; not an assistant or mid-level practitioner (PA, Nurse Practitioner, etc).</div><div><br /></div><div>4. Where did the doctor learn their Prolotherapy skills? And do they take continuing education in it on a regular basis. Better yet if the doctor instructs others how to do it.</div>Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08135940032427606725noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613281237757388085.post-35980222620129779912008-12-23T14:24:00.000-08:002008-12-23T14:33:32.518-08:00If You Take Antibiotics - Then Take Probiotics Too<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">As many of us in the </span></span><a href="http://www.drfields.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">holistic health</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> field have said already, if one must take antibiotics, then in order to prevent diarrhea, one should also take probiotics.<br /><br />Although antibiotics kill killing bacteria responsible for illness, they also destroy the so-called “good” bacteria that live in the gut, and this can cause diarrhea. This side effect may cause as many as 20% to not continue to take the full prescription. </span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Drs Benjamin Kligler and Andreas Cohrssen reviewed seven high-quality studies of probiotics, cultures of “good” microorganisms similar to those found in the gut. Their findings led them to conclude that there is good evidence to support the use of probiotics to prevent diarrhea caused by antibiotic use.<br /><br />“With the level of evidence that probiotics work and the large safety margins for them, we see no good reason not to prescribe probiotics when prescribing antibiotics,” says Dr Kligler. “The only drawback is that probiotics are not covered by health insurance.”<br /><br />The recommended doses of probiotics by the author’s are more than 5 billion colony-forming units per day for children and more than 10 billion colony-forming units per day for adults.<br /><br />Kligler B, Cohrssen A.

Peter A.

Dr. Fields recommends a much less risky and far more affective treatment known as </span><a href="http://www.drfields.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Prolotherapy</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">. Prolotherapy is a natural non-surgical method of assisting the body to heal injured or weakened joints, ligaments and tendons. With Prolotherapy, the weakened areas are injected with a proliferant that stimulates the growth of healthy, strong tissues. As the tendons and ligaments grow stronger and vibrant, the pain is alleviated.</span><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/I0HcX8Kcy2k&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/I0HcX8Kcy2k&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Pacific Prolotherapy and Medical Wellness Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08135940032427606725noreply@blogger.com0
