Prolozone therapy is a procedure in which local injections of ozone are used help reduce inflammation in the body caused by disease or dysfunction. Prolozone injections are especially helpful for anyone struggling with chronic pain. Prolozone therapy is a safe and effective therapy.
Prolozone injections include a blend of nutrient ingredients, in addition to ozone, that supports tissue regeneration and activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Because prolozone injections trigger your body’s innate healing abilities, you need fewer prolozone injections over time. Prolozone injections are not a lifelong treatment, but instead, a method to support your body while you get your health back on track.
What is Prolozone Therapy?
Prolozone therapy is a non-surgical injection-based treatment that’s used in chronic and degenerative diseases. The term ‘prolozone’ is a combination of the words ‘proliferation’ and ‘ozone.’ Proliferation means to rebuild or grow. The prolozone name indicates that this therapy is triggered by ozone and other nutrients to activate regrowth and healing within the body.
Prolozone therapy is a neural therapy where a therapeutic blend is injected into an affected area. The prolozone injection blend includes:
- Ozone
- Vitamins
- Minerals
- Procaine
- Anti-inflammatories
In our office, we often use prolozone therapy for those suffering from acute or chronic pain. Prolozone therapy can be injected directly into any joint or soft tissues/muscles that have been giving you trouble – providing lasting relief without painkillers or surgery.
Prolozone Therapy Benefits
With prolozone therapy, you may receive a series injections in any problematic areas one to two weeks apart, or until symptoms subside. Often, one treatment may be all that is needed.
In our office, we commonly use prolozone therapy for patients with:
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Osteoarthritis
- Muscle pain
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Lyme disease
- Chronic inflammatory response syndrome
- Neck pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Autoimmune disease
- Joint pain
- Lower back pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Plantar fasciitis
- Morton’s neuroma of the foot
Not only does prolozone supply a boost of therapeutic ozone directly to an impacted area of the body, it also works by reducing inflammation overall. In addition, prolozone therapy promotes better cellular membrane function, repair of damaged tissue, and oxygenation of tissues and blood.
Some of the benefits of prolozone therapy we see, specifically in those with joint and muscle pain, include:
- Reduced pain
- Improved flexibility
- Decreased inflammation
- Reduced arthritis symptoms
- Improved mobility
