Living with chronic pain can feel like an uphill battle.
Have you tried medications or invasive procedures with little success? There’s good news—dextrose prolotherapy is a natural, non-surgical solution.
This innovative treatment stimulates your body’s healing process. It helps repair damaged tissues and provides long-term relief.
Florida Spine & Pain Specialists offers dextrose prolotherapy for pain management. Here’s how this cutting-edge treatment works, its benefits, and how it can help you.
What Is Dextrose Prolotherapy?
Dextrose prolotherapy is a regenerative medicine treatment that addresses the root cause of chronic pain.
It involves injecting a natural solution of dextrose (a type of sugar) and sterile water into damaged or weakened areas, such as ligaments, tendons, or joints.
These injections act as a mild irritant. They trigger the body’s natural repair system, strengthening tissues and reducing inflammation.
The result? A stronger, more stable foundation and reduced pain.
How Does Dextrose Prolotherapy Work?
When tissues like ligaments or tendons are injured, they often heal incompletely, leading to chronic pain and instability.
Prolotherapy uses joint injections to:
- Stimulate Healing: Dextrose encourages collagen production, helping repair and strengthen tissues.
- Reduce Inflammation: Over time, prolotherapy alleviates the chronic inflammation that contributes to pain.
- Improve Stability: Repairing damaged areas restores stability and function to the affected joint or structure.
Benefits of Dextrose Prolotherapy
Dextrose prolotherapy has become a preferred solution for natural, non-surgical pain relief. Here are some of its standout benefits:
Non-Surgical and Minimally Invasive
Dextrose injections are minimally invasive and performed in the office. They require no anesthesia or lengthy recovery periods.
Long-Term Pain Relief
Unlike painkillers, which only mask symptoms, prolotherapy addresses the root cause of chronic pain, offering lasting relief.
Natural Healing
The treatment works with your body’s natural repair process, avoiding reliance on synthetic medications or invasive surgeries.
Broad Applications
Prolotherapy is effective for a wide range of conditions, including:
- Joint pain in the knees, hips, and shoulders.
- Back pain, including issues related to the spine.
- Sports injuries.
- Tendonitis and ligament injuries.
What to Expect During a Prolotherapy Session
Wondering what a session involves? Here’s a quick overview:
- Consultation: Your doctor will evaluate your condition and discuss your goals for treatment.
- Procedure: The targeted area is numbed, and a small amount of dextrose solution is injected.
- Post-Treatment Care: Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after, with minimal downtime.
While some may notice relief after a single session, multiple treatments are often recommended for optimal results.
