After all this covid stuff has normalized, I may look into these treatments - at least get some new x-rays to start with.

Astro - is that what forum member Chapelle had?
She had posted I think a few months ago about shoulder issues.

Blue - Was it a insurance friendly "conventional" Orthopedic Dr / clinic? Or one of those "pain center" places that have both conventional and "alternative" pain treatments....and not always covered by insurance.?

Girlie - That was an odd thread for that, I figured it was in one of your shoulder threads.

Anyway, what she had sounds like a different means to do the same thing- breaking the calcium with frequency which is vibration.

This article mentions about four other but very similar methods.

I may not have enough pain for a Dr to warrant this, depends on the Dr. opinion. I do need to find one who knows about this (Chappelle had an Ortho Dr) and at least get some x-rays.

I certainly have made most areas better but its been a long time doing this, would like to speed it up. The really deep areas are prob hard for even the DMSO to reach. I have not "gone bonkers" with DMSO for months. Figured I need a break from that stuff.

calcification and scar tissue are different but I prob have both, another interesting and easier treatment-

"When activated by vibration waves at an optimal frequency of 170 hertz, the scar tissue begins to break up.":

Good luck astro! interesting treatment, i hope it helps my friend, keep us posted!

Along these same lines, you should look into Borax/boron. There's a whole group of people on Facebook who swear by Borax treatment for arthritic joints. You can join the group, called "Borax For Arthritis And Health", and poke around if interested. I think that the borax is supposed to interact w/ calcium is some healing way, although I forget the specifics.
