PROLOZONE®  PAIN THERAPY

A safe, effective, non-surgical, natural alternative to regenerate, rejuvenate and regain your pain-free wellness!!

Prolozone Therapy is a non-surgical procedure to eliminate or drastically reduce pain by facilitating the body's own natural ability to heal itself. Prolozone derived from the Latin word “prolix”, which means to proliferate, regenerate and rebuild. Prolozone is a connective tissue injection therapy of collagen-producing substances and ozone gas which can reconstruct damaged or weakened connective tissue in and around joints.  A complete injection treatment protocol, backed by research & published patient outcomes reducing pain and improves function and quality of life specifically in people with arthritis."When injected into a joint, it is able to stimulate the fibroblastic joint repairing abilities which may reduce inflammation and promote new cartilage growth. Different clinical studies support the efficacy of ozone in the reduction of pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis, recovering mobility" (Borrelli 2015).

PLATELET RICH PLASMA (PRP)

Heal, Repair and restore with Your Body's own potential in a natural way!

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient's own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient's own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems. PRP ultrasound-guided injections are prepared by taking your own blood and running it through a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These activated platelets are then injected directly into injured or damaged body tissue to cause stem cells and your immune system to release growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of repair cells your own body produces naturally, without surgery.  Main indications for PRP are torn/injured ligaments, tendons and cartilage, but can also be used in the treatment of scars, fine wrinkles, hair loss (or re-growth), and skin rejuvenation.

Ozone IV Therapy

IV Ozone (10 Pass Technique) - IV ozone/blood immunotherapy treatment

Ozone (O3) is a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms. According to the Cleveland clinic, ozone gas can be administered through ozone therapy to heal wounds, relieve pain and treat disease.

Ozone therapy uses medical-grade ozone created using an ozone generator device. The intent of ozone therapy is to increase the amount of oxygen in your body.

A higher oxygen level can boost your immune system while promoting healing, explains Dr. Tejwani from the Cleveland clinic. It does that through cell regeneration — the process of replacing or repairing damaged cells.

How ozone therapy is administered

There are several ways to administer ozone gas, but it shouldn’t be inhaled. This can cause severe irritation and fluid buildup in your lungs. Safer methods for delivering ozone therapy include:

  • Applying it to your skin by exposing a section of your body to ozone gas under a protective covering (also called ozone sauna) or by applying an ozone solution to your skin (often for wound healing).
  • Blowing gas into your body, typically through your ears, rectum or vagina.
  • Mixing it with your blood. Ozone gas can be dissolved in a sample of your blood and then reintroduced back into your body through an IV through a process called autohemotherapy.
  • Ingesting it by consuming small amounts of ozone gas dissolved in oil or water.
  • Injecting it into one of your muscles through a shot containing a mixture of oxygen and ozone.

Potential health benefits of ozone therapy

There is low-quality and limited evidence that ozone therapy could offer health benefits. These include:

  • Immune system support because ozone therapy activates your immune system and boosts immunity.
  • Improved blood circulation, as more oxygen travels to your cells, tissues and organs.
  • Protection from invaders like bacteria, viruses and fungi by halting their growth and reducing their survival.
  • Reduced oxidative stress, which is an imbalance of cell-damaging free radicals and protective antioxidants that can lead to inflammation and chronic disease.

“Ozone therapy functions like an antioxidant or anti-inflammatory,” says Dr. Tejwani. “It could potentially be used for any type of inflammation, whether in a wound or related to conditions such as diabetes or arthritis.”

Research is ongoing to determine the safety and potential uses of ozone therapy. But it has been studied for conditions such as:

  • Breathing disorders, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Cancer.
  • Diabetes.
  • Fibromyalgia.
  • Immune disorders such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
  • Musculoskeletal disorders like disk herniationor carpal tunnel syndrome.
