Prolotherapy & Prolozone
Prolozone and prolotherapy are regenerative treatments that stimulate healing in damaged tissues by promoting collagen formation and tissue repair. Both techniques involve injecting a solution, typically a mixture of dextrose (a sugar) and other agents, into injured areas to enhance healing and reduce pain. Prolozone is a more advanced version of prolotherapy, incorporating ozone gas, which enhances the body's natural healing response. Ozone helps improve oxygen delivery to tissues, reducing inflammation, and promoting the regeneration of damaged tissues.
Benefits:
- Pain Relief: Both prolozone and prolotherapy can help alleviate chronic pain, especially in joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles.
- Improved Mobility: By promoting healing and reducing inflammation, these treatments can enhance joint function and flexibility, improving overall mobility.
- Non-Surgical: These are minimally invasive options, offering an alternative for individuals who seek non-surgical solutions for musculoskeletal issues.
- Long-Term Healing: These therapies target the root cause of pain by encouraging tissue regeneration, potentially providing long-lasting results without the need for ongoing treatments.
Symptoms Treated:
- Chronic joint pain (e.g., knee, shoulder, hip)
- Osteoarthritis and joint degeneration
- Tendonitis and tendinopathies (e.g., tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis)
- Ligament injuries or sprains
- Back pain (especially in the lumbar and sacroiliac areas)
- Chronic neck pain
- Muscle pain and weakness (due to ligament or tendon issues)
- Joint instability (e.g., in the shoulder or knee)
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
- Chronic inflammation in the musculoskeletal system
Overall, both therapies offer an effective option for individuals looking for pain relief and tissue regeneration, with minimal risk and faster recovery times compared to traditional surgical methods.
