Our Beverly Hills office has officially moved to a new location in Century City!

To celebrate this big change, we had an amazing office moving party where some of you joined in to help us prep and see us off.

From writing good luck messages on our moving boxes to sharing your favorite moments on our memory wall, your support has made this transition not just smoother, but also more memorable.

If you're a patient in the area, our new Century City office is right next to the California Rehabilitation Institute. This institute is a top-notch rehabilitation center, a collaboration between UCLA and Cedars-Sinai, and known as a premier facility on the West Coast. Being neighbors means enhanced opportunities for comprehensive care and collaboration to better serve our community.

🌟 Part 3 of the Challenge is here, and Dr. Tolbert is taking it up another notch! 💪✨

Today, she's diving into the world of prolotherapy, a game-changing approach in pain management that's all about using your body's natural healing powers.

What is prolotherapy?! It involves the injection of an irritant (usually dextrose, which is a type of sugar) into the site of painful and degenerated tendons, joints and ligaments. At the Center, we usually give the injections during several treatment sessions to promote the growth of normal cells and tissues in your body. The beauty of this treatment (besides it being all-natural) is that it dates back thousands of years to Hippocrates.

Savasana (shah-VAH-sah-nah or shih-VAH-snah) is the final resting pose at the end of almost every yoga practice, and it is also a powerful tool for those living with chronic pain.

Here's how it works...

1. When you're in savasana, let go of all tension and allow your entire body to relax.
2. Pay attention to your breath, allowing it to flow freely and naturally.
3. Visualize each breath as if it's washing away the pain.
4. Notice how your body responds to the relaxation and consciously surrender any physical or mental tension .
5. After some time (usually three to five minutes), you should feel a sense of calm and relaxation throughout your body.

Savasana can be done as often as needed, especially when pain flares up. It's also helpful to practice it regularly, such as once or twice a day for 10-20 minutes. Over time, this practice can help reduce the intensity and duration of chronic pain.
