The name combines "proliferation," which promotes cell regeneration, and "therapy."
It is a procedure in which a high-concentration dextrose solution that is harmless to the body
is injected directly into weakened ligaments or tendons.
Joints, ligaments and ligament attachments do not receive a rich blood supply carrying regenerative factors,
so when they are injured or weakened, recovery is often slow.
Prolotherapy stimulates these areas to grow new regenerative cells,
treating and strengthening weakened ligaments.
