About Caring Medical & Rehabilitation Services
Thank you for considering Caring Medical and Rehabilitation Services
 Caring Medical & Rehabilitation Services, S.C. (CMRS) specializes in treating chronic pain and sports injuries, utilizing the comprehensive Hackett-Hemwall Prolotherapy technique. In conjunction with Prolotherapy, we founded The Hauser Diet™ Natural Medicine Program to maximize wellness and healing, and for those desiring to achieve optimal weight and energy.
Located in beautiful Oak Park, Illinois, a nearby suburb of Chicago and established in 1991 by Ross Hauser, M.D., and Marion Hauser, M.S.,R.D., Caring Medical has developed into one of the largest Prolotherapy and Natural Medicine Clinics in the US. We are comprised of an experienced team of professionals who are very passionate about our work here at Caring Medical. We are located on two floors of the Medical Arts Building at 715 Lake Street, Suite 600, Oak Park, Illinois 60301.
We care! Patients from all over the US and abroad come to see Ross Hauser, MD and the excellent team at Caring Medical. Why? Because we truly care about you. We aim to provide you with awesome service from start to finish. We strive to treat every person with an individualized health plan designed to help you do the things that you want to do in your life, maximizing your physical potential.
We get to the root cause of your problem!
In many cases, our patients have seen many doctors or allied health care professionals prior to seeing us in efforts to seek answers for their pain problems, sports injuries, or other medical problems. Our philosophy is not to suppress symptoms with medications, but rather, to seek out the root cause of a patient's complaints and seek a permanent solution. We do this by first listening to the patient and asking detailed questions about their medical history. Dr. Hauser will then provide you with a plan that will address each of your concerns and get you on the road to a healthy active life. While sometimes pharmaceuticals are required, our long-term goals are to wean patients off their use. This includes narcotic pain medications, anti-inflammatories, steroidal medications, and others.

Ross Hauser
"When I began seeing pain patients during my residency training program in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, I thought they were a very difficult group of people to treat. They often appeared depressed, and traditional approaches to pain management did not seem to help. Then I said to myself, 'How would I feel if I had pain day after day and no one could find a cure?' The families of many who suffer from pain often begin doubting the reality of their loved ones’ pain."
”In April 1992, I contacted Prolotherapy pioneer Dr. Gustav Hemwall and he allowed me to observe him in his clinic. During the next few months, I spent a considerable amount of time in Dr. Hemwall’s office. People traveled from all over the world to be treated by this 84-year-old man. To think that someone would travel from places like England, Mexico, Florida, and California to receive pain treatment was incredible. Three months later, I began utilizing Prolotherapy in my medical practice as a treatment for chronic pain. It is hands down the most successful treatment that I have ever used for pain in my medical practice." Ross Hauser, MD.
Prolotherapy by experts
As with any medical procedure, Physicians should use and apply the technique of Prolotherapy only after they have received extensive training and demonstrated the ability to safely administer the treatment. As a patient, we know that you want to come to a place where your doctor exhibits a high level of skill and expertise in the treatment he/she provides.
This is why so many people come to Caring Medical – experience! Ross Hauser, M.D. has been practicing Prolotherapy for over 15 years. He trained directly under and assumed the practice of one of the leading figures in Prolotherapy Gustav Hemwall, M.D. Ross Hauser, MD is one of the world’s most experienced Prolotherapists. He learned Prolotherapy from Gustav Hemwall MD, the grandfather of Prolotherapy. Dr. Hemwall learned Prolotherapy from the inventor of the technique, George Hackett, MD.
We use the Hackett-Hemwall technique of Prolotherapy, as they intended it to be used. Others use a different type of Prolotherapy, but we find that this method is the most successful and cost effective for our patients. We treat patients with Prolotherapy every day, all day long. We do not dabble in it. Not only are we experienced in the technique of Prolotherapy, but we have seen and treated nearly every imaginable pain condition. It’s hard to imagine someone coming to Caring Medical with a condition that we have never seen before. You name it, we’ve seen it!
Prolotherapy is a tremendously successful treatment.
The statistics from our patient population reveals that 85% of all patients – (including all ages, all conditions) achieve successful remission of their pain with our Prolotherapy. If you don’t get the results you expect, we look for other reasons why your body might not be healing to its maximum level. This involves getting you on the right diet for your Diet Type, as well as checking hormone levels, detecting the presence of any infections, adding supplements to aid healing, and a myriad of other treatment regimes. In other words, we treat the entire person. You want to see a Prolotherapy doctor who is also a great Natural Medicine physician.
Working with difficult cases
Some Prolotherapists will not offer treatment to areas of the spine or the groin area. We are among the few clinics that will treat all areas of the body with Prolotherapy. We also work with physicians who send their patients to Caring Medical to determine why Prolotherapy was not as successful as possible or even failed.
In our experience, as well as in medical studies, anywhere from 75-82% of people are cured of their chronic pain with Prolotherapy. Of the other 20%, the majority achieve substantial pain relief with Prolotherapy. If Prolotherapy is appropriately administered by a qualified physician, most patients are given a great chance of resolving chronic joint and back pain without the need for surgery. We see the very difficult cases with great success.
You can know how you should be eating – specifically for YOU!
 Most people want to feel good, have great energy, and look their best, right? We use Hauser Diet Typing, a process we developed over our 15 years in practice that is a scientific, objective method of testing that determines how you should eat. Developed by the team of “the doctor and the dietitian™,” The Hauser Diet™ combines medical science with practical food knowledge! The Hauser Diet™ consists of five different diets differing in the amounts of carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Learn if you are a Hauser Lion, Otter, Bear, Monkey, or Giraffe Diet Type. Never underestimate the power of food and the role it plays in your health and ability to feel your best. Learn what foods can balance your blood pH and sugar levels to provide optimum energy and health.
We know athletes!
 Dr. Hauser is a 4-time ironman finisher, avid marathoner, and cyclist, and Marion Hauser, MS, RD, is an avid endurance cyclist, marathoner, and duathlete! Because we ourselves are athletes, we understand what athletes need. If you have experienced a sports injury, you most likely are not too happy about it. You probably want to get back to your sport as quickly as you can. We understand what it feels like to be side-lined by an injury. Nobody likes that. You name it, we’ve probably experienced it – either ourselves or through one of our patients. We have had sports-related back injuries, meniscal tears, IT band stress, plantar fasciitis, turf toe, stained neck from cycling, wrist pain, elbow pain, shoulder pain, lumbar pain, shin splints, groin pain, and these are all on just the two of us! If you want to maximize your sports performance, come to the place where we know sports and sports injuries. Find out why traditional methods of treating sports injuries often cause the injury to linger and do not achieve full cures. Get back to you sport – FAST! The beauty of Prolotherapy is that it allows the athlete to continue working out while undergoing treatment in most cases. Most athletes need that! They can’t just sit around and do nothing! It’s not in their blood!
We also know that getting on the right diet will help the athlete achieve maximum sports performance. It is not necessarily beneficial to carb load if your body doesn’t process carbs well. If you are a Hauser Lion or Otter Diet Type, you actually need more protein and fat – even before, during, and after the event. Sounds crazy? Come find out why it’s true
HOPE IS PRACTICED HERE! We will do our best to help you to maximize wellness
and achieve the healing you desire.
