No. I suppose if you are prone to that kind of thing (fibroid build up), you inject in the same place, everyday for years on end.... but my fabulous doctors at UCSD don't think so. It promotes circulation and healing to the affected area. I've had blood tests in the same area for years on end, starting with injections daily at one spot for 5 years beginning in my 20s ...and yes, there is some scar tissue present at 68. But there is no comparison to having acupuncture or trigger points done on occasion and rotating muscles. So no. but good question!
