Prolotherapy (PRP Therapy) in Burnaby
What is Prolotherapy?
Prolotherapy is a regenerative treatment that involves injecting a specially formulated solution into damaged tendons or ligaments to kickstart the body’s natural healing process.
Through a series of treatments, this technique encourages the repair of weakened or deteriorating tissues in and around the joints. The injection typically includes a mixture of dextrose (a form of glucose), saline, and a local anesthetic.
This therapy is particularly beneficial for managing chronic pain, improving joint stability, and promoting the recovery of tendon or ligament injuries.
Prolotherapy is a non-surgical treatment designed to help regenerate and repair injured or lax ligaments, tendons, and joints.
By injecting a solution, often 15-25% dextrose, it triggers a localized inflammatory response that activates the body’s own healing mechanisms, fostering tissue repair.
These injections are administered in an outpatient setting with minimal to no downtime. Patients often experience reduced pain along with improved joint strength, mobility, and stability.
