PROLOTHERAPY INJECTION TREATMENT

What Is It:

Also known as non-surgical ligament and tendon reconstruction and regenerative joint injection. It is a recognized orthopedic procedure that stimulates the body’s healing processes to strengthen and repair injured and painful joints and connective tissue. Prolotherapy can repair the weakened sites and produce new collagen tissue, resulting in permanent stabilization of the joint.

Contains natural substances that stimulate the healing response, as well as local anesthetic agents. Each treating physician tailors the selection of the appropriate formula according to the patients need.

How It Works:

It works by stimulating the body’s natural mechanisms to lay down new tissue in the weakened area. A mild inflammatory response which is created by the injection encourages growth of new, normal ligament or tendon fibers, resulting in a tightening of the weakened structure.
