Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy is an innovative regenerative medicine technique that has been proven to help significantly in recovery from orthopedic, soft tissue, and nerve injuries. Short for proliferative therapy, it involves a sugar solution injection to cause controlled localized tissue trauma. This, in turn, causes an innate healing response inside the body similar to stem cell therapy. This healing process is thought to repair the damaged tissue in such a way that results in stronger tissue integrity. This particular technique requires thorough orthopedics assessment which allows the practitioner to attack the joint/soft tissue complex at its weakest link, typically where tendons and ligaments connect to bones. This then stabilizes the joints to take the stress off musculoskeletal structures, relieve muscle spasms, reduce inflammation, and improve strength and biomechanics. The ultimate goal of this combination is to relieve pain and prevent injury.
