Patient information:

24 year old, male, Japanese
On December 20th, 2020, he injured his right knee during playing basketball. The MRI pictures were taken on December 21, 2020, and the diagnosis was:

Complete tear of ACL

He started the actual therapy with Jun Matsumoto from January 15, 2021 and continued Jun’s special rehab exercises for 4 months. He took the second MRI on May 29, 2021 at the different hospital, and the diagnosis was:

The ACL is intact.

This is the one of the slices of the MRIs taken on May 29,2021.

MRI indicates:

It is very clear that the torn ACL has healed naturally. You don’t have to be a specialist of radiology to see this beautiful natural healing by the picture. After seeing the natural healing of the ACL tear, Jun Matsumoto teaches him to start strengthening the muscles for preparing to return to the sport. He hasn’t been strengthening the muscles until the torn ACL became intact on the MRIs as Jun suggested. He canceled the surgery after seeing the natural healing of the ACL tear by the MRIs.

ACL tears heal without surgery

Patient information:

39 years old, male, American
On 27-9-2020, he injured his right knee during playing basketball. On 8-10-2020, he took the first MRI, and the diagnosis was

Complete ACL tear
LCL tear

He started the Online Therapy with Jun Matsumoto from 17-10-2020 and continued Jun’s special rehab exercises for 6 months. The following two MRI pictures were taken on 17-04-2021.

MRI indicates:

In my experience, this is the first case of which the torn ACL healed in the abnormal position. The inferior remnant of the torn ACL attached not to the superior remnant but to the lateral wall of the notch or the medial aspect of the lateral femoral condyle in a position anterior and distal to the ACL anatomic footprint. I will follow up this case up to a year, and I will show here how this torn ACL changes its form finally. After 7 months from the injury, he can have normal daily activities, but still have a little pain on LCL.

ACL tears heal without surgery

Patient information

17 years old, male, American
On October 23rd,2020, he injured his left knee during playing basketball. The MRI pictures were taken on October 29, and the diagnosis was:

complete tear of ACL

He started the Online Therapy with Jun Matsumoto from November 20, 2020 and continued Jun’s special rehab exercises for 4 months. He took the second MRI on April 11, 2021 at the same hospital, and the diagnosis was:

complete tear of the posterior bundle of ACL.
anterior bundle of ACL is intact.

The complete tear of whole ACL became as the partial tear in 5 months, even though the doctor never admitted the natural healing of torn ACL. He implied that the first diagnosis might be a misdiagnosis. The following is the second MRI, and I confirmed that the natural healing has been going on.

MRI indicates:

After having continued the Evo-Devo exercises with Jun Matsumoto for 4 months, the complete range of motion of the left knee was recovered, he could have the normal daily activity without pain. Now, he is still working out to return to play basketball.

前十字靭帯断裂の自然治癒療法

インド系マレーシア人　４１歳　男性

２０１８年１２月に右膝前淳十字靭帯を完全断裂した。

受傷後１ヶ月目からインターネット上のみで治療を開始した。

治療開始から３ヶ月間は２週間に一回の動画セッションを行った。

４ヶ月目以降は月に一回の動画セッションを行った。

セッションでは、カウンセリングと運動療法の指導を行った。

左が受傷直後、右が受傷６ケ月のMRI

治療開始が受傷後１ヶ月という急性期が過ぎつつあるということと、前十字靭帯の断裂の仕方が今までに見たことのない複雑さを呈していたことから、解剖学的自然治癒は困難であると予想していた。私の予想に反して、６ヶ月目のMRIにおいて、はっきりと靭帯の連続性が確認されたことは驚きであった。機能的には、患側に筋力低下が見られるものの、日常生活においては問題ないレベルまで回復している。患側の筋力が戻るまでリハビリは継続していく予定である。

Patient information

Born in India and working in Malaysia, Male, 41 year old

He ruptured his right ACL completely in December,2018. He started the Naturalization Therapy from the one month after the injury. We had the internet sessions through the Skype once in every 2 weeks for  the first 3 months and once in 1 month from the 4 months. At first, there were the difficulties for the anatomical healing, because it was the severe and complete ACL tear  which had torn in the unusual way. Moreover, it was late that he started my therapy because the acute period was almost passing. Contrary to my expectations, the MRI shows that his completely torn ACL has healed clearly and anatomically. The Naturalization Therapy enables the ACL tear to heal naturally without any complication. As long as the blood supply and the anatomic reduction are secured, the natural healing process will work even on the ACL.

Spontaneous healing of ACL tear – case 1

It has been considered that healing abilities of ACL is very poor, and actually ruptured ACL barely heal spontaneously. This is a report of a case that a tear of ACL is healing spontaneously by Naturalization Therapy. This therapy is generated from a philosophy that humans’ natural motions are learned in 0-year old age. So, if we lost the function of the knee, we should retrieve it from a beginning.

History of the injury:

  • 34 year old, male
  • Twisted his right knee in skiing

MRI of 3 days after the accident

0month

MRI of 3 month after the accident

3month

MRI of 7 months after the accident

7month1

Movie of the physical assessment 7 months after the accident.

MRI indicates:

The ruptured ACL is healing spontaneously, and his physical condition 7 months after the accident is almost normal. He can move and have a daily life without any pain and any disorder. Amazingly, there is no joint laxity in the affected knee. This healing process is still continuing, and I estimate that the process will continue at least for a year. Before deciding an ACL surgery, I strongly suggest you to try a Naturalization Therapy as a primary option.
