Introduction
Prolotherapy is a medical treatment offered at ASCPM that stimulates the body’s natural healing process for certain musculoskeletal conditions. Weak or damaged ligaments or tendons can lead to pain and restricted movement.
How It Works
During prolotherapy, a practitioner injects a solution, typically containing a sugar solution, into the affected area. This injection stimulates the body’s healing response, promoting the growth of new tissues and strengthening weak ligaments or tendons.
The Benefits
Over time, prolotherapy can help reduce pain, improve stability, and enhance joint function. By promoting tissue regeneration and strengthening weak structures, this treatment offers long-term relief for individuals with musculoskeletal issues.
Procedure Details
The effects of prolotherapy can vary, and multiple sessions may be necessary for optimal results. It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if prolotherapy is appropriate for your specific condition. By discussing potential risks and benefits with a medical expert, you can make the right decision regarding your treatment plan.
