Prolotherapy in Dunedin:
Effective Non-Surgical Treatment for Chronic Pain and Joint Injuries
What is Prolotherapy?
At Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we offer prolotherapy, a safe and non-surgical solution for chronic pain and joint injuries. Prolotherapy, also known as regenerative injection therapy, is designed to stimulate your body’s natural healing process, helping to repair damaged or weakened ligaments, tendons, and joints.
Prolotherapy involves injecting a natural solution, typically a mixture of dextrose and other healing agents, into targeted areas of damage or pain. This injection stimulates tissue growth, supporting the repair of damaged areas and restoring function. By promoting the body’s regenerative processes, prolotherapy offers a viable alternative to surgery and long-term pain medication.
