  • Prolotherapy

    Prolotherapy is a type of pain management therapy that involves the injection of dextrose (a type of sugar) and sometimes other substances into injured or painful areas of the body. It is used to treat musculoskeletal pain, such as arthritis, tendinitis, and back pain. The injections are designed to promote the growth and healing of damaged tissue, strengthening and stabilizing joints and reducing pain in the process. Prolotherapy is considered a natural alternative to surgery, and is generally safe and well-tolerated. While it is still considered an emerging therapy, many people have experienced significant pain relief from treatment, often with fewer side effects than traditional pain management approaches.
