We are often asked how long it takes to find relief and recover from a Prolotherapy treatment session. Although we wish we could simply answer with, a few days, that is not always the case. Like all other treatments, relief and recovery vary; from individual to individual and injury to injury. We cannot give a direct time frame, but we can provide you with some tips to help in the recovery process!

Danielle Steilen-Matias, MMS, PA-C We are each on our own individual healing journeys. Past experiences, hurts, injuries – all come into play as we heal our bodies, minds, and spirits. Let’s look at the physical healing journey. Our Caring Medical treatments such as Prolotherapy, PRP, stem cell injections, curve correction, nerve releases, as well as changing our health habits – all require time. Regenerative medicine treatments stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Our overall health status – both physical and emotional – influences how well our bodies can heal. Just like planting a garden, when you plant a seed, it

As you know, we encourage our patients to change from “face down” to “look up” lifestyles! Our providers at Caring Medical FL recommend prism glasses (also known as horizontal reading prism glasses) which are designed to provide a unique way of reading or viewing things without straining your neck.

The squat strengthens the muscles in the legs, lower back, and core and maintains stability, flexibility, and strength in the hips, gluts, knees, quads, hamstrings, groin, calves, and ankles. Squats are a critical exercise that will

Did your mom ever say, “Stop slouching and sit up straight?” Yes, she did! And, it turns out, she was right! As you know, our providers stress what you do outside of the office is just as important as receiving Caring Medical’s regenerative healing injections. We wanted to take this opportunity to talk about posture. Have you ever viewed yourself from the side to see how much you are slouching or how forward your head juts out? You would be surprised. Maintaining good posture requires intentionality and self-awareness. Whatever it takes for you to be reminded of good posture, do

Creating a healthy work environment for your body is crucial for maintaining overall wellness, structural health, and optimizing productivity. Let’s face it. We spend a lot of our time working – whether at an office, out and about with people, or from home. Because we spend so much time at work, it makes sense that we at Caring Medical discuss our patients’ work environments as something that needs attention. As we have said numerous times, we can provide regenerating injection treatments, but what happens outside of our office in your daily lives is just as important. Let’s look at 5
