I'll add to the previous comment: Hauser is extremely thorough at the cost of some pretty serious pain during and immediately afterwards. I had two wrists and a shoulder done at once and spent the rest of the day whining. Laura had a knee, neck, shoulders, and low back done and had the pain ramp up so much that she needed a Lortab and a break in between treatments. Adleson is a lot more gentle but he tends to focus on a specific area rather than treat a whole region the way Hauser does. Both, though, treat far more and far more aggressively than any other prolotherapist we've seen or heard of and both have the experience to tell you what else you'll need to get the most out of the treatments.
