Prolotherapy is a specialized treatment targeted at correcting the root cause of chronic neuro-musculoskeletal pain.
It will help the body regenerate injured tissues by creating a highly targeted stimulus to engage the body’s natural repair mechanisms.
Prolotherapy uses a thin needle to inject a solution, typically, of local anesthetic and dextrose directly into the source of the injured tissues.
Other solutions such as sodium morrhuate, vitamins B or C, and sterile water may be used depending on the injured tissue. This stimulates a very localized, controlled inflammatory response, initiating the healing process and regeneration of damaged tissue.
The agent is typically used with a local anesthetic (lidocaine or procaine)

The platelets store compounds known as growth factors that stimulate the body’s healing process after injury. These concentrated growth factors are injected directly into the site of injury to rapidly accelerate the healing process.These concentrated growth factors directly into t... Read More

Osteopathy is a safe and effective patient centred manual therapy which works in combination with the individuals own homeostatic mechanisms to help restore balance and optimal health. It works with the understanding that the way the body is able to function is inseparable from the way it is structured.

All aspects of the body must work together to maintain health and the osteopathic approach is able to address the person as a whole to improve not only structure and therefore function but overall health and wellbeing.

Osteopathic Practitioners support the body’s ability to restore and maintain health by using skilled palpation and manual techniques to influence muscles, joints, nerves, connective tissue, circulation and internal organs.
