– The proteoglycans (PGs) of the Extracellular Matrix (ECM) cementing the collagen fibers improve the viscoelastic properties of the endoarticular fluid, which does not happen in prolotherapy The loose musculoskeletal components and hypermobile joints stimulate local nociceptors and cause tension and excessive stress to localized areas.
By reinforcing these areas, regeneration and analgesic effects occur.
Guna MD are 2ml injectable ampoules for subcutaneous, intradermal, periarticular, intraarticular and intramuscular (local muscles) use.
► Guna MD can be used by themselves or along with in different associations (up to 2 ampoules per MD) according to the specific needs of the patient, or mixed with PRM injectable ampoules for Pain Therapy (ex. MD-NECK + MD-MUSCLE + GUNA-NECK + GUNA-MUSCLE) or as a complement to Homotoxicology (ex. Zeel T, Arnica comp.-Heel) or even conventional or local anesthetic injectable treatment.
Guna MD can also be used when the patient is treated with cortisone, NSAIDs and / or chondroprotective drugs without contraindications - and - as already mentioned - if the patient receives – during the treatment - manipulative therapy or other physical therapeutic methods (acupuncture, electroacupuncture, shiatsu, phyisiokinesitherapy), instrumental methods (magnetic therapy, ultrasound, laser therapy, electrotherapy, etc.) or thermal therapy.
