Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Prolotherapy, also known as proliferation therapy, is a regenerative treatment used to relieve pain and promote the healing of injured tissues. By injecting a natural irritant solution into the affected area, prolotherapy stimulates the body’s healing response, encouraging the repair and strengthening of damaged tendons, ligaments, and joints.

Common Conditions Treated

Joint Pain
Osteoarthritis and other degenerative joint diseases.

Tendon and Ligament Injuries

Tendinitis, sprains, and tears (e.g., tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis).

Muscle Injuries

Strains, tears, and overuse injuries.

Chronic Pain Condition

Conditions like plantar fasciitis and chronic lower back pain.

Acute and chronic injuries common in athletes.
