What is Prolotherapy?

Prolotherapy , or proliferation therapy, focuses on the treatment of ligament and joint injuries. Prolotherapy involves the injection of a solution, typically consisting of dextrose or other irritants, into the affected area. This promotes the proliferation of collagen, leading to local inflammation and increased blood supply and connective tissue regeneration. This treatment can be used for damaged ligaments and joints. While some people find significant relief after just one session, many will need 2-3 treatments to get best results.Prolotherapy is a regenerative injection treatment that uses a dextrose-based solution to stimulate the body’s natural healing response in damaged ligaments, tendons, and joints. By promoting collagen production and improving blood flow, prolotherapy helps repair weakened tissues and restore joint stability.

It can help reduce pain, improve function, and support long-term recovery for conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, and chronic joint instability.
