While scientific evidence is immature, our clinic has found this treatment to be helpful.  This treatment has allowed some patients to avoid surgery.  This is one of many exciting advances for active people.  This treatment uses your own body to help heal yourself.  Other players such as tennis star Rafael Nadal, golfer Tiger Woods and star NFL receive Hines Ward have reportedly used this treatment.
