Joint Pain, Prolotherapy

Joint pain narrows a life quietly. You begin lifting differently, set aside the activity you loved, and adjust until the limitation feels permanent. Most people are told the choice is managing the pain or, in time, surgery.

For some injuries there is useful ground in between.

About prolotherapy

Prolotherapy uses small injections into weakened ligaments or tendons to invite your body's own repair response. Rather than numbing the area, it strengthens the structures that have become lax — often the ones causing the instability and the pain that keeps returning.

It suits some situations beautifully and others not at all, so we assess carefully first.

Often helpful for

• Injuries that never fully healed
• Joints that feel unstable
• Long-standing knee, shoulder, hip or back pain
• Pain that has not settled with physiotherapy

What a course involves

Several sessions a few weeks apart, since your body needs time in between. Improvement comes gradually rather than all at once. We review as we go and stop when you have what you need.

Before you settle for managing a joint, let's see what it is capable of. Book an assessment and we will talk it through honestly.
