Surgery and medications should be used as a last resort when it comes to relieving pain.
PRP Prolotherapy injections are safer, less expensive, and completely natural. They pose far less risk than surgery, prescription drugs, and even steroid injection which can degrade joints.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Prolotherapy is a regenerative injection therapy for healing pain that we practice at Equilibrium Natural Health. This simple procedure starts with a quick blood draw. Then, the healing parts of your blood, the platelets, are extracted from the sample and mixed with a solution of dextrose which together will promote inflammation for quick repair. Lidocaine is also added which will serve to numb the targeted area. The solution is placed at the beginning and ending of the tendons and ligaments that have become stretched or injured which is the source of the pain. By initiating heightened blood flow, the injection promotes the growth of newer and stronger tissues pulling nutrition and reparative cells to the the site of pain to rebuild and tighten the tissues. As the tissues tighten and become more stable, the pain is alleviated and the stability is restored to the area.
PRP Prolotherapy is a great compliment to (and is often used in conjunction with) other pain relief methods such as chiropractic care, physical therapy, or necessary surgery on occasion.
PRP Prolotherapy is a simple procedure which costs much less than stem cell injection therapy. Both kinds of injections bring effective natural pain relief, but --plain and simple --Prolotherapy does so for a much lower price.
Therapy usually takes about 6 weeks with monthly treatments. Sometimes clinically, however, we see patients get better sooner than that by following a customized diet and lifestyle program which we offer in conjunction with prolotherapy. The first three to four days following treatment, patients may experience soreness and/or aching since treatment induces a mild inflammation at first. The best way to manage this is to keep moving and functioning. Patients will be able to maintain normal daily function following treatments, however we suggest not participating in sport and exercise for at least a week and then slowly return to these more rigorous activities with special attention to pain levels. Your treatment schedule will customized to you in the office.
Patients should be aware the most full and complete healing with regenerative therapies will come as they maintain basic habits of health in their daily life before and after therapy. Things such as:
