If you’re struggling with chronic joint pain, soft tissue injuries, or instability that just won’t heal, prolotherapy injection may be the natural, regenerative solution you’ve been looking for.
Unlike cortisone injections that may temporarily mask pain, prolotherapy is designed to address the root cause by activating tissue repair at the site of injury.
Prolotherapy is a regenerative treatment that stimulates the body’s natural healing response to repair and strengthen injured or weakened connective tissue. It’s commonly used to treat musculoskeletal pain and improve joint stability, especially in areas prone to wear-and-tear or repetitive use.
Prolotherapy treatment involves injecting a small amount of medical-grade solution, typically dextrose, directly into the affected ligaments, tendons, or joints. This controlled irritation stimulates a mild inflammatory response, which signals the body to send repair cells to the area. Promoting new collagen production, strengthening of weakened connective tissues, improved joint function and stability, long-term paid reduction.
Most people experience improvement after just one session, though a series of injections may be recommended for lasting results.
It’s often chosen by patients looking to avoid surgery or long-term medications, and by athletes seeking natural recovery options.
