Prolotherapy, or proliferative therapy, is a regenerative treatment that stimulates the body’s natural healing processes to alleviate pain and improve function. It involves injecting a fluid, typically dextrose or saline, into injured ligaments, tendons, or joints. These injections cause a mild inflammatory response, promoting tissue healing and strengthening the wounded area. Prolotherapy is a less invasive treatment option for chronic musculoskeletal disorders such as arthritis, tendinitis, and back pain, and is a great option for patients seeking complementary or supplemental therapy.
Our team at Venturis Clinic offers prolotherapy, along with many other regenerative medicine options. Some of the many conditions we’ve treated in the past include the following:
- Lax or Unstable Joints
- Whiplash
- Fibromyalgia
- Joint Sprains
- Certain Types of Headaches
- Tennis Elbow
- Finger, Knee, and Hip Arthritis
- Chronic Tendonitis
- Back Pain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Tendon, Muscle, and Ligament Problems
- Bulging Disc
- Sciatica
Prolotherapy is a procedure that does not use steroids to provide pain relief. This means it can be used to provide long-term pain relief and, for some, permanent pain relief. When you talk with our team about prolotherapy, we will answer any questions you might have as well as address any concerns. From there, we will assess your needs and create a tailored plan that will help you reach your goals. We are led by Dr. Philipose DC, who has more than 25 years of experience in the field, giving you peace of mind that your health is in the best hands.
