    Prolotherapy

    Prolotherapy is an Affordable and Effective Regenerative Pain Medicine Treatment.

                   How many treatments do you know with a reported success rate of 80-90% according to published studies?

    Prolotherapy is:

    Prolotherapy is an effective Regenerative Medicine treatment for musculoskeletal pain.

    It has been used for over 70 years.

    It is part of the same field of medicine as stem cell therapy, but it is much more affordable.

    What does Prolotherapy involve?

    Prolotherapy involves the injection of small amounts of natural substances (along with anesthetic so the injection isn’t too painful) at the exact site of an injury. This stimulates the body’s natural repair mechanism to regenerate collagen or strengthen the injured tissue at the exact site of injury.  The final result is often improved joint stability, improved function and decreased or absent pain.

    Prolotherapy can have good results for a variety of conditions according to studies listed here.

    Prolotherapy is a relatively safe and effective treatment for the following conditions:

    PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) can be used in conjunction with Prolotherapy when necessary. Platelets found in PRP include growth factors and bioactive proteins that are vital for tissue repair and regeneration

    .

    Dr. Bloom has treated thousands of patients with Regenerative Medicine Treatments including Olympic athletes, professional kickboxers, rugby players, celebrities and other doctors for the past 25 years. Numerous famous athletes, movie stars, politicians and other people of all walks of life have benefited from Prolotherapy.

     

    Why do I continue to have pain?

    Pain is a sign that there is a problem. Pain is not something that should be stopped with medications until the underlying cause of the pain is identified and corrected.

    When we have an injury, we often stretch and weaken tendons and ligaments. These structures have very poor circulation, but a large nerve supply. This lack of circulation deprives them of the nutrients necessary for proper healing. When ligaments and tendons get stretched, these nerves become irritated resulting in pain.

    How can tendons and ligaments be strengthened?

    Unfortunately, tendon and ligament tissues are not like muscles and do not improve with exercise. Exercise cannot strengthen weakened ligaments and tendons, but Prolotherapy can.

    What does Prolotherapy do?

    Prolotherapy helps repair the weakened tendons and ligaments. It has been observed to increase the size of tendons and ligaments by an average of 65%. It has been shown to increase their strength by 40%. The tissue formed from Prolotherapy is strong, healthy, and flexible. As tendons and ligaments are repaired, nerves are no longer irritated, and the pain often resolves.

    Is Prolotherapy helpful for Sports Injuries?

    Whether you’re a weekend athlete or a professional athlete, this Prolotherapy can be very helpful to you. Prolotherapy can not only provide you with pain relief, but it can also help restore normal function and prevent re-injury by strengthening a weakened area that cannot be restored in any other way.

    We have treated several tennis pros, marathoners, and bodybuilders for serious injuries after they had failed to respond to traditional medical treatment. Several of these athletes were considering surgery which would have required weeks of recuperation and rehabilitation. Instead, after careful research, they chose Prolotherapy. After a few treatments, they were back to their full, pre-injury performance. They had no down time, no recuperation time, and there was no need for rehabilitation.

    Does Prolotherapy help Arthritis?

    Prolotherapy can help joint strengthening and promoting cartilage repair for patients with arthritis. Published studies performed by Dr. Dean Reeves have shown that prolotherapy performed in arthritic joints resulted in a significant reduction in pain, swelling, knee-buckling, and improved x-ray findings including a reduction in bone spurs and cartilage regeneration.
