Natural Pain & Sports Medicine: Regenerative Therapies

What are “natural” pain therapies?
”Natural” pain therapies such as Prolotherapy, Neural Therapy, Medical Acupuncture, Laser/Micro-current, PulseWave Therapy, Cupping and Auricular Therapy stimulate the body to heal and recover from injuries and accidents, sprains and strains and other over-use and chronic pains. Rather than using medicines and procedures that cover the symptoms and/or treat the symptoms rather than the cause of the chronic pain, these therapies are aimed at restoring function of the cells and tissues so that they may lead to healing of the primary problem, rather than just the symptoms. As the body is able to restore normal cell function, micro-circulation and physiology, many chronic and acute pain syndromes are resolved, even when conventional therapies have often failed.   Through these natural therapeutics, Dr. Frank has helped many patients regain function and daily activities, whether routine daily tasks or high performance athletic competition. 

Prolotherapy: "The original stem cell therapy at 1/10 the price."

Prolotherapy: Remodeling degenerative joints, Reconstructing ligaments & tendons:

Prolotherapy,  also known as Proliferative Therapy, Sclerotherapy or Stimulated  Ligament Repair (SLR), was developed by Dr. George S. Hackett, M.D. over  50 years ago. Critical to understanding healing from accidents and  injuries and preventing chronic pain and disability, is recognizing that  inflammation from injury can be good! Nature’s inflammatory response,  if allowed to follow course, will lead to an influx of important cells,  Growth Factors and tissue healing factors that will lead to greater  integrity of injured ligaments & tendons and of degenerative joint surfaces.  

Indications for Prolotherapy included sprains & strains, Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD) and osteoarthritis of the knees, hips, back & shoulders, Sacro-Iliac Syndrome, Osteitis Pubis, Trochanteric Bursitis,  Temporo-Mandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ), “Tennis Elbow”  (epicondylitis), Rotator Cuff Syndrome and A-C Shoulder Joint Syndrome,  Plantar Fasciitis, Chondromalacia Patellae, Osgood-Schlatter Syndrome,  bunion deformity, tenosynovitis and more. Further, many chronic pains  result from “ligamentous laxity”, where seemingly minor injuries have  led to weakening of ligaments and tendons, resulting in shifting the  load of support to muscles and soft tissues, often with associated  chronic and debilitating pain.  

Prolotherapy leads to enhanced healing and repair, increased collagen  growth, cartilage remodeling, ligament and tendon strength and support.  While Prolotherapy stimulates repair, arthritis risk is decreased and  rehabilitation time and costs are typically dramatically reduced over  other conventional therapies.

Neural Therapy

Neural Therapy: Freedom from Chronic Pain & delayed healing, scar therapy :

Neural  therapy was developed in Germany by Drs. Ferdinand and Walter Hüneke  over 50 years ago and has led many patients with chronic pain and  delayed healing to find hope and freedom from their pain and suffering.  Initially recognized by treating abnormal scars, Neural Therapy has  expanded over the last 50 years to include treatment for many kinds of  chronic pain and dysfunctions, including chronic back pain (upper or  lower), failed back surgery syndrome, Headaches, abdominal/pelvic pains & “adhesions”  pain, Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (Shingles pain), menstrual pains and  dysfunction, slow wound healing, recurrent tonsillitis, sinusitis,  pharyngitis & rhinitis, and more. Neural Therapy often “unlocks” chronic pain patterns that have failed many other conventional therapies.

Medical Acupuncture & Laser Therapies

Laser/Acupuncture: Acupuncture without needles!
A  leading expert in Medical Acupuncture Therapy in the united states and  internationally known for many years, Dr. Frank has used acupuncture to  help many patients find relief from pain and dysfunction, through the  gentle, yet profound, stimulation with acupuncture.  Now, with the  WeberLaser, patients may be treated without traditional needles, but  with "needles of light".  Therapy can be profound and lasting for many,  even when conventional therapies have failed.  Ask Dr. Frank if Laser  Therapy may be a solution for you. 

Cupping

Cupping: Myofascial therapy from Acupuncture traditions:

Often  regarded as an Acupuncture-related technique, cupping has been  practiced by many different cultures for treating myofascial  (musculo-skeletal) pains and more. While relatively gentle in its  application, Cupping may often lead a patient to recovery that has not  been experienced with other conventional therapies. 

Auricular Therapy: Ear Acupuncture without needles!

As a leading expert in Auricular Therapy in the united states and internationally known for many years, Dr. Frank has used Auricular Therapy to help many patients find freedom from pain and disability, as well as for addictive or compulsive behaviors, as the entire body is neurologically projected to the ear.  Auricular Therapy may be practiced with micro-current (TENS) electrical stimulation, magnets or other devices and avoid needles.  Therapy can be profound and lasting for many, even when conventional therapies have failed.  Ask Dr. Frank if Auricular Therapy may be a solution for you.


Dr. Frank has taught internationally in Congresses, Symposia and Seminars for many years and is recognized as a leader in Medical Acupuncture and Auricular Therapy.

Anti-Aging & Regenerative Medicine

The Best of Both Worlds of Conventional & Alternative Wellness

Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine: Focusing on maintaining or regaining Health and Wellness, rather than simply managing diseases and symptoms, as is commonly the case with conventional medicine.
 
Through understanding the challenges that are faced with metabolic, hormonal, immune and other issues, Dr. Frank has developed Wellness Programs that are designed to help the body overcome toxicities and nutrient deficiencies and then utilizing various Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) of Integrative Health approaches to actually address the problem underlying the set of symptoms or the diagnosed diseases or syndromes, rather than simply manage these conditions, which just "kicks the can down the road". We want to help people tap into their innate healing capabilities whenever possible, and it is far more possible than most conventional allopathic physicians understand.
 
We address hormonal imbalances, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Shingles (Herpes Zoster) and others. We also help with advanced weight loss, GERD (Gastric Esophageal Reflux Disorder), Irritable Bowel, Gluten Intolerance, Chronic Interstitial Cystitis, Asthma/Emphysema/COPD, as well as with a host of chronic pain-related conditions, including arthritis of the knees, hips, low back and neck pain, shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis/heel spur, ankle weakness and recurrent sprains, costo-chondritis and more.
 
 

Biomagnetic Pair and Advanced BioEnergetics Therapies

A Remarkable Story!

Biomagnetic Pair Therapy (BPT) uses pairs of magnets to neutralize the  polarity and the pH (acidity/alkalinity) of tissues and organs in the  body. These distortions of healthy polarity and pH may lead to  disease-causing pathogens in the body, including either viruses,  parasites, bacteria and/or fungi. Dr. Isaac Goiz Durán, a Mexican physician, first discovered the  principles behind BPT while treating an AIDS patient. After putting two  magnets of opposite polarity onto the areas he identified with distorted  polarity and pH, the patient recovered shortly thereafter and remains  healthy today. Dr. Durán proposed that this pair of points, the  Biomagnetic Pair (BP), has a relationship to each other for harboring  the pathogens that cause AIDS. Furthermore, according to Dr. Goiz, the  two pathogens resonate with each other and cause the collapse of the  immune system. By placing the BP magnets on the identified two  locations, the local polarity and pH of the tissue or organ is  neutralized and pathogens are promptly or soon thereafter naturally  eliminated. In the 27 years that have followed, Dr. Goiz and his  colleagues and students have discovered hundreds of such BP relating to a  wide variety of diseases inflicting humankind.

PulseWave Therapy and PRP for ED and Peyronie's Disease

Please consider these services for your optimal men's health.

PulseWave & PRP for ED/Erectile Dysfunction and Peyronie's Disease in Men 


While  only present in the US for a few years, PulseWave Therapy for Men's ED  has been actively practiced in Europe for over 17 years, with a good  number of professional journal articles presenting its benefits for  men's health. Consider these benefits that have been described:
 

+As  men age, many experience difficulties with erection as vessels are less  healthy and may develop micro-plaque which may decrease blood flow and  impair healthy sexual function.

+High blood pressure, diabetes, medications and other causes may impair healthy penile blood flow.


+High frequency pulse or acoustic waves have provided many men with better erections and sexual performance.+Studies have shown 76%+ response to PulseWave therapies for ED. (Ther Adv Urol 2013 Apr;5(2):95-99.)


+PulseWave therapy is non-surgical, non-invasive and drug free. Typical treatment sessions last ~20 minutes.

+An FDA cleared medical device approved for increased blood flow is used for treatment.


+Patients typically require 1-2 series of 6 sessions of PulseWave Therapy for ED, depending on severity of symptoms.


+PulseWave Therapy is also indicated for Peyronie's Disease, where a fibrous band  of tissue may cause bending of the penis and impair of inhibit sexual  performance.
 

+PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) may also benefit men with ED. PRP is derived  from a person's own blood and is rich in stem cells and growth factors which have enhanced circulation and men's sexual health. The PRP is injected after a numbing cream has been applied and is well tolerated.
 

+Please consult with Dr. Frank to learn which approach is indicated for your best men's health.
