What Is Prolotherapy? 💉 | A Regenerative Medicine Approach to Back Pain
Prolotherapy is an injection-based regenerative medicine procedure that uses a solution—commonly a dextrose solution—to target areas of pain and stimulate the body’s natural healing response.
For appropriate patients, prolotherapy may be used to address pain involving ligaments, tendons, and other supporting tissues and may be considered as part of a comprehensive approach to musculoskeletal pain, including certain types of chronic low back pain.
At our practice, we offer prolotherapy as one of several regenerative medicine options, alongside treatments such as PRP, exosome-based therapies, and stem cell therapies. The appropriate treatment depends on each patient’s condition, goals, and medical evaluation.
In this patient, Dr. Sikora is injecting a dextrose solution to target the source of the patient’s low back pain.
