Knee Pain Treatment with Prolozone & Ozone Therapy

How Prolozone Therapy Works

Prolozone is derived from the word “ozone” and the Latin word “proli” which means to regenerate or re-build. It literally means re-building tissues with ozone. And the word Prolozone is comprised of the word “Prolo” which is short for proliferation because the treatment causes the proliferation (growth, formation) of new ligament tissue in areas where it has become weak.

Prolozone Therapy is an injection technique similar to Prolotherapy that uses ozone. The use of ozone causes the joint to heal much more quickly than in traditional Prolotherapy. This is because ozone is a highly reactive molecule and when injected into a joint capsule it is able to stimulate the fibroblastic joint repairing abilities.

Prolozone causes repair and tightening of the lax structures, partially torn connective tissue and ligaments. Prolozone halts the pain/inflammation cycle. This allows for better circulation, increased blood flow carrying nutrition, and hydration of the damaged tissues. This allows for a healing environment within the joint to develop and results in an increased range of motion and decreased pain. Because Prolozone has the ability in many cases to actually correct the pathology of the disorder, there is a 75-85% chance for the chronic pain sufferer to becoming permanently pain-free. By repairing the connective tissue is all that is needed to permanently reverse chronic pain.

Scientific Study Backing Prolozone for Osteoarthritis of Knee

A scientific study was published in 2017 and can be read online at the US National Library of Medicine & National Institutes of Health. The study is titled, “Therapeutic Efficacy of Ozone Injection into the Knee for the Osteoarthritis. The study describes the positive outcomes for patients suffering from Osteoarthritis of the knee. The study concluded by saying, “Intra-articular injection of ozone plus oral celecoxib and glucosamine could significantly decrease pain intensity in patients with mild to moderate Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA), and improve their functional status”.  This is great news for sufferers of knee pain, who are looking for a simple, safe procedure to resolve chronic knee pain.
