Chronic Headache Pain- Oklahoma City Prolotherapy

By Alvin Philipose, B.S., B.S., DC (Ret.)

Venturis founder Dr. Alvin Philipose (now retired) spent over 25 years as a prolotherapist, and the clinic continues to provide Neural Prolotherapy to patients in the Oklahoma City, Piedmont, and other Oklahoma surrounding areas. NPT is a powerful, straightforward treatment that can produce noticeable results in just minutes.

How Does It Work?

NPT targets nerves that can cause chronic headaches and migraines. A low-dose dextrose solution is injected into the body through perineural injection, an injection near the area of a damaged nerve. Nerves become entrapped due to physical compression, moving them out of their natural alignment. Perineural therapy leverages the unique properties of dextrose. This is a holistic type of therapy, simple sugar that is used by the brain as our main energy source. No matter what you consume whether it is food or drinks, the nerves regularly demand dextrose and function optimally only when it is available to utilize. By introducing the dextrose substance in a targeted way, it becomes possible to reduce inflammation and enhance nerve function to decrease headaches and migraines. This helps “reset” nerves that may have become trapped in a sort of loop that consistently sends pain signals to the brain when little stimulus is present. NPT is recommended for any patient who is found to have chronic headache pain resulting from nerve-related problems and or migraines. It is one of the only headache treatments that can effectively help people who suffer from neuropathic damage.

NPT is not for everyone. However, it is extremely safe, completely natural, and requires no recovery time. It only takes a few minutes to diagnose and learn whether NPT therapy is the right therapy for you. In some cases, some patients report a substantial reduction in their pain. NPT is also used for pain in other parts of the body, including but not limited to;

• Knees
• Shoulders
• Neck
• Hips
• Injured muscles
• Joints damaged by repetitive stress like tennis elbow
• The jaw, especially when afflicted with TMJ
• The face, especially suffering from Bell’s Palsy
