Frequently Asked Questions

Prolotherapy

A dextrose solution is commonly used; this solution is a non-pharmacological irritant and is injected into the ligament or tendon. The theory is that the solution causes an increase in blood supply and overall flow of nutrients to stimulate tissue repair. The dextrose solution causes a localized inflammation and self-initiates the tissue to repair itself.

Response to this treatment is variable and may require serial treatments. The average number of treatments is around four to six. After initiating treatment, one of our specialized physician can provide you with a better estimate.
