Prolotherapy

Service Description

At Road Back to Health Regenerative Medicine Clinic in St. George, Utah, we believe true healing begins from within. One of our most effective natural therapies for joint pain and injury recovery is Prolotherapy—a safe, nonsurgical treatment that stimulates the body’s natural ability to repair itself. Prolotherapy, short for proliferation therapy, works by encouraging the body to strengthen weak or damaged tissues. A small amount of a mild healing solution—typically a mix of dextrose (a natural sugar) and lidocaine—is injected directly into the affected joint, ligament, or tendon. This solution triggers a gentle, targeted inflammatory response that activates your body’s repair mechanisms. Over time, the area becomes stronger, more stable, and less painful as new collagen and connective tissue form. Unlike traditional pain treatments that only mask symptoms, prolotherapy addresses the root cause of chronic pain and instability. It helps restore natural function and mobility by rebuilding the very structures that keep your joints strong and aligned. Our patients often experience lasting relief from issues such as arthritis, back or neck pain, knee instability, shoulder injuries, ligament sprains, and tendon damage. Because prolotherapy relies on your body’s own healing process, results build gradually. Most patients benefit from a series of 3–6 treatments, spaced several weeks apart. Mild soreness after each session is normal—it’s a sign that your body is responding and beginning to heal. Over time, patients notice improved joint stability, decreased pain, and greater freedom of movement. At Road Back to Health, we often combine prolotherapy with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or other regenerative techniques for even greater outcomes. These treatments complement each other, amplifying the body’s natural repair signals and helping tissue regenerate more efficiently. If you’re looking for a non-surgical solution for joint pain, arthritis, or ligament injuries in St. George, Utah, prolotherapy may be right for you. Dr. Rodeback will assess your condition and design a personalized treatment plan to help you heal naturally—without relying on long-term medications or invasive procedures.
