I have never heard of Dr. Ho or his products until your post.

I did a google search on the title of your post and read some of the links that came up.

I'm not a doctor, so can only give my personal opinion, which is this.

If it is advertised only on the internet, only on infomercials and only by ordering through a special site on the web or special purchase on TV or for limited time only stuff, I would say buyer beware, it isn't going to work.

All this stuff is nothing more than an attempt to take money from people who are suffering in pain and is a waste of money.

Supplements have no FDA regulations nor are they tested for safety or efficacy. You have no idea what you are buying or how safe they may or may not be.

Various types of equipment to use have been proven time and time again to be further waste of money and provide no real relief of spinal or joint pain.

If it was that easy, then everyone would be using it. It would be widely available and medical studies would show that it really does work.

There are no easy fixes to spine and joint pain. Save your money and see and use a real doctor for you SI joint inflammation.
Use medically recognized and medically accepted treatments.

Good luck

I'm aware of the buy beware when dealing with such products but if this is a scam, then Dr.Ho is the biggest scam artist out there. I've known of him for many many years now and he has a crap loads of products. I've seen his stuff being sold at those product fairs before. If I were to consider any products such at the stuff seen on TV, it would be his.


On a slightly related note. I'm wondering if there ARE any products out there are work on the same effect as a electro therapy machine owned by physiotherapists?

I'm assuming you mean the electrical pulse machines that are attached to the area of pain and deliver either a pulse or wave type impulses to the body.

You are not referring to ultrasound equipment machines.

Assuming you mean he pulse/wave equipment, you might want to ask about something called a "ten's machine".
It works on the same type of method, but is a portable battery operated and very portable for a patient to use at home. It can be attached and warn for brief periods of time during the day at home.

I believe it has to be ordered by a physician's order and can be done through a physical therapy facility or a doctor's office.
It isn't something that you can just go out and buy.

You will be show how to use it, how to apply it and how long to use it at a time.

As for Dr Ho, like i said, I never heard of him before nor have I ever gone to any kind of product fair either.

He very well could be the biggest scam artist in the world and it could be that some of his basic stuff does ease pain and other stuff doesn't.
And of course there is always the placebo affect that might make someone actually believe that it is helping and relieving some pain, therefore the product works.

Actually, I own a Dr.Ho's Machine and it works good for muscle pains. It is expensive but theres another product I just got it works great, its called Tens.
