Prolotherapy Training Videos for sale
These videos include footage from the first Canadian prolotherapy workshop held in 2017. The teachers include Dr. Adrian Gretton from Calgary, and Dr. Erik Ouellette from Ottawa, both extremely knowledgeable prolotherapists who teach in Canada and internationally. If you are interested in learning prolotherapy well, these videos are highly recommended. Many people claim to use prolotherapy but not everyone has the same solid, safe and well-rounded background. This is a good way to make sure you are practising correctly, for a very reasonable fee. (Also note you can purchase mp4s from the 2019 annual conference!)
