đź’‰ What is Prolotherapy?
Prolotherapy is a dextrose-based injection therapy designed to gently activate the body’s natural healing response.
When introduced into the affected area, it signals the body to:
• Clear out old or damaged tissue
• Stimulate local repair cells
• Build new collagen and connective tissue
Over time, this process helps improve strength, stability, and function in weakened ligaments, tendons, and joints.
✨ How it works
Instead of masking symptoms, prolotherapy supports true tissue repair by encouraging regeneration from within. It is often used to help areas that didn’t fully heal the first time—or are starting to break down with age.
📍 Common conditions treated
âś“ Osteoarthritis
âś“ Tendinopathies
âś“ Shoulder, knee, ankle pain
âś“ Plantar fasciitis
âś“ Ligament sprains
âś“ Back & neck pain
✓ Tennis/golfer’s elbow
âś“ Joint laxity & instability
🦴 Can it help avoid surgery?
In many cases, prolotherapy may help maintain mobility and function, potentially delaying or reducing the need for more invasive interventions like joint replacement.
⚖️ Prolotherapy vs Cortisone
Cortisone injections
→ Reduce inflammation and pain temporarily
→ May interfere with long-term tissue healing
Prolotherapy
→ Stimulates the body’s repair mechanisms
→ Supports long-term tissue strengthening and recovery
🌿 A regenerative approach focused on rebuilding, not masking.
