Prolotherapy
When ligaments and tendons sustain damage, the joints they support may experience limited strength and persistent pain. Repairing these tissues is essential for pain relief and enhanced function. Prolotherapy offers a targeted solution, using specialized injections to stimulate healing in ligaments and tendons. The injections contain a concentration of local anesthetic and dextrose, effectively promoting natural healing in affected joints, tendons, or ligaments.
How it works
Prolotherapy triggers a healing reaction, increasing local blood flow and attracting healing growth factors into the injured tissue. This process enables the body to repair damaged tissues naturally, leading to diminished pain and improved mobility. Unlike steroid-based injections, Prolotherapy solely relies on local anesthetic for temporary pain relief, while the dextrose concentration stimulates a powerful healing response.
Prolotherapy can be combined with other Regenerative Medicine or ancillary treatments, forming a comprehensive treatment plan for chronic pain or rehabilitation. By encouraging healing and alleviating pain caused by tendon or ligament deterioration or injury, Prolotherapy significantly enhances the recovery process.
To achieve the best results, Prolotherapy injections are typically repeated every few weeks, encouraging continuous healing. The number of injections required may vary depending on the condition and the patient.
