Prolotherapy

Whether you have acute or chronic pain, joint injury, or soft tissue damage — prolotherapy comfortably and easily stimulates your body's healing response for lasting relief.

How It Works

Prolotherapy follows a four-step regenerative process that works with your body, not against it.

1

Injection

A solution containing a mild irritant (typically dextrose) and pain medication is injected into the damaged or painful area.

2

Inflammatory Response

The injection triggers a controlled local inflammatory response — the body's natural signal to begin healing.

3

Healing Activation

Your body's repair mechanisms are activated, drawing in blood flow, nutrients, and growth factors to the area.

4

Tissue Growth

Over weeks to months, healthy new tissue grows to replace weakened or damaged structures.

Conditions Treated

  • Rotator cuff tendinopathy
  • Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Knee osteoarthritis
  • Chronic soft tissue injuries
  • Ankle ligament injuries
  • Low back ligament pain
  • SI joint dysfunction
  • Hip labral issues

Pricing & Timeline

Cost Per Session

$200

Per joint, ligament, or up to four trigger points per session.

Recovery Timeline

3 – 6 months

Full tissue repair benefits take time. Most patients see improvement after multiple sessions with minimal downtime.

Note: Research shows prolotherapy and PRP offer longer-lasting healing than corticosteroids for most conditions. PRP may show more consistent results for knee osteoarthritis specifically.
