Prolotherapy

Expert in Tampa, FL

What is Prolotherapy?

Prolotherapy is a minimally invasive regenerative injection treatment that stimulates the body’s natural healing response to strengthen weakened ligaments and tendons and reduce chronic joint pain.

You may be a candidate if you experience:

• Chronic joint pain (knee, shoulder, hip, ankle)
  
• Ligament or tendon laxity causing instability or pain
  
• Pain after repetitive strain or prior injury
  
• Non-surgical, regenerative options

What does the treatment process look like?

• Evaluation to determine candidacy and target areas
  
• Series of injections spaced over weeks to months
  
• Minimal downtime, most patients resume normal activities quickly
  
• Combined approach with physical therapy and activity modification for best results

How does this procedure work?

Prolotherapy uses a series of small injections of a concentrated dextrose solution near damaged ligaments and tendons. The controlled irritation triggers a local healing response, encouraging tissue repair and improved stability over time.
