Prolotherapy is a useful treatment for many orthopedic conditions including those listed below and others. By far the most common root-cause of all of these problems is stretched ligaments or tendons. In other words, these types of pain are due to sprains and strains that never got better. If the body does not heal this injuries within about 6 weeks it is unlikely to be able to do so and Prolotherapy is definitely the treatment of choice.

If you or someone you know has persistent pain of more than a few weeks duration I would recommend that your first course of action is to check it out with an experienced Prolotherapist. In many cases the problem can be solved in a simple and safe way! It usually takes six to ten treatments and a couple of months to fix the problem so you have to be patient. However the good news is that once the problem is fixed it usually is a permanent cure.
