Regenerative Treatments In The Villages

What is Prolozone Therapy? How Does It Work?

Prolozone therapy is a form of regenerative medicine where doctors use injections of ozone in liquid form along with other therapeutic elements to stimulate the body’s tissues to heal themselves.

How Prolozone Therapy Works

Prolozone therapy is a non-surgical option for patients dealing with tissue injuries, and strains. The serum used in this therapy is created using a combination of elements such as:

  • Liquid ozone 
  • Vitamins and minerals
  • Anti-inflammatory medications
  • Homeopathic medicines
  • Anesthetic agents
  • Cells that stimulate tissue regeneration

Effects of Prolozone Therapy

When doctors introduce ozone into the affected area, it improves blood circulation. As a result, the treatment site receives a fresh flow of oxygen and nutrients.

Ozone also attracts healing cells like fibroblasts and chondrocytes so they set off a reaction of tissue regeneration using the flush of nutrients available to them. The additional vitamins and minerals in the serum also support the repair of tissues while lowering inflammation levels.

Conditions that Can Heal

You can get Prolozone therapy to supplement conventional medicine for various conditions such as:

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Tennis Elbow
  • Plantas Fasciitis
  • Arthritis in the joints
  • Back pain resulting from damaged vertebra or discs
  • Osteoarthritis in the spine, knee, or hips
  • Shoulder pain from rotator cuff injuries
  • Trauma from playing sports

Causes of Muscle Pains 

Ligaments and tendons are soft collagen-like tissues that support the structure of your body.

They connect bones with one another and also attach muscles to the bones. For example, ligaments keep the vertebra and discs in your spine stable so your back remains flexible. Because of their elastic texture, ligaments allow free movement so you can go about your regular activities. In case you’ve had an injury or surgical procedure, the supporting tissues could get damaged.

Excessive use of a particular joint or muscle like when you’re playing sports or working a labor-intensive job could also strain the ligaments. You start to sense pain because of the nerve endings present in the tissues reacting to the stress.

Injections Vs Medications

Homeopathic injections vs traditional medications

Most traditional pain medications on the market work by turning off pain receptors. They mask symptoms by turning off the inflammatory response and receptors for a brief period. While this may make you fell better for a couple of hours, it has done nothing to fix the cause of the pain. This means that once the medication wears off, you will still be in pain.

Homeopathic injections such as ozone injections are localized to the area affected and work to bring relief by fixing the root cause of the pain. Perhaps the best part is that they don’t carry harmful side effects like traditional painkillers which have to make their way through the entire body. These injections are also better and faster than cortisone shots and can be given in several sites several times a year as opposed to the 3 shots per year rule with cortisone.

injections vs medications

There are a number of reasons to choose injections vs medications. Legacy Clinic has been a leader in offering homeopathic injections to help their patients find the relief they’ve been asking for. They now also offer ozone injections which can help treat many different ailments. Ozone therapy safely eliminates the causes of pain and gives a 75% chance for the chronic pain sufferer to become permanently pain free!

Ozone Testimonials:

I had been suffering with severe shoulder pain since January. Had done physical therapy which helped take the edge off during the day but it would keep me up in pain all night. No type of pain medication would work. After my first visit and my first set of Ozone injections my shoulder was pretty much pain free. And after the second set I can honestly say it’s like my shoulder is back to normal. I can’t wait to go back to get my knee done! Dr. Perry is very personable and does not give you the run around as I have found with many Dr.’s.

Healing Ozone Therapy

Healing Ozone? You know that ozone protects us from the damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun. But did you know that ozone also can protect our cells and reverse injury done to cells? A molecule of 3 oxygen atoms loosely attached to each other provides an amazing triad of healing oxygen to the area of damage.

Ozone improves cellular metabolism and energy output thereby allowing the cell to do what it needs to do. This includes healing cartilage cells, nerve cells, immune cells and more.

Locally injected medical ozone is safe and effective for the back, joint, cartilage, ligament, tendon and nerve repair. This is often used in combination with Hormone Replacement, anti-inflammatory diets or other treatments to improve outcomes for patients with arthritis (osteo and rheumatoid), tendonitis, ligament tears and who might be facing joint replacement in the future.

Ozone therapy is a relatively painless proliferate and antiinflammatory therapy which stimulates the ligaments, joints and tendons toward recovery and repair. Depending on severity, and duration of pain you should expect 4-6 treatments for an area to fully repair. In acute injuries, treatment times are much shorter and faster. All joints of the body can be treated with Ozone including knees, low back, neck, shoulder, fingers, elbows, hips, ankles etc.

What Does Healing Ozone Treat?

  • Arthritis (Osteo and Rheumatoid)
  • Back Pain
  • Ligament or Tendon Strains or Sprains
  • Joint Degeneration
  • Joint Pain and Swelling from Lyme Disease
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • TMJ
  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Migraines or Headaches
  • Neck and Shoulder pain

Ozone Injections For Joint Pain

Legacy Clinic is now offering prolotherapy ozone injections. If you suffer from arthritis, painful joints, or inflammation, this new therapy is just what you’ve been searching for.

By stimulating mitochondria, ozone supports and accelerates the body’s natural ability to heal damaged tissue and regenerate healthy tissue. Examples include ozone injections to heal damaged joints. It accomplishes this by stimulating the mitochondria of cells that are actively involved in regeneration, such as stem cells or the cells that generate new collagen in a damaged joint, or those that form new bones in the case of bone damage.

ozone injections

Note: Every cell in your body is dependent on ATP from which it derives the energy it needs to perform its functions. ATP is generated in mitochondria. Therefore, if your cells have more ATP, they function better. From cells that make collagen, to cells that make your hormones, or make natural antioxidants, or detox your blood… everything is dependent on the health of your mitochondria. Ozone is better at supporting the health of your mitochondria than any other known substance.

Homeopathic medicine (no side effects)

  • releasees knots in muscle
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Pain reduction
  • More flexibility

Now offering prolotherapy:

  • injections to help rebuild cells
  • Great for rotator cuff injuries
  • Great for hip and knee injuries

If you think you might benefit from ozone injections or you would like more information on this or other therapies, please contact us today.

Prolotherapy Ozone Injections

What Is Ozone? The oxygen you breathe is present in the air as a pair of oxygen atoms. This is the most stable form of oxygen. Ozone, unlike regular oxygen, is composed of three oxygen atoms instead of two. It is the addition of the third oxygen atom that makes ozone “supercharged” oxygen, and gives it all of its remarkable medical properties. Ozone is found naturally in the body. The white cells make it as part of the immune response. Pure medical grade ozone, when it is used according to the established medical guidelines, has a safety record that is unparalleled. The use of ozone to treat various medical conditions was first developed in Germany in the early 1950’s with hundreds of studies proving its effectiveness and safety. Today, prolotherapy ozone injections are common throughout Europe, and its use has gradually been spreading in America over the last 25 years.

prolotherapy ozone injections

What is it used for? Medical-grade Ozone is injected using a special technique. It is excellent for all forms of musculoskeletal and joint pain including chronic neck and back pain, rotator cuff injuries, degenerative and arthritic hips and knees, degenerated discs, and shoulder and elbow pain. Because in many cases Medical Ozone actually corrects the pathology of the disorder, there is a 75% chance for the chronic pain sufferer to becoming permanently pain free.

prolotherapy ozone injections

How does it work? Medical-grade Ozone is a form of non-surgical ligament reconstruction and is a permanent treatment for chronic pain. The treatment is a connective tissue injection therapy of ozone gas which can aid in the reconstruction of damaged or weakened connective tissue in and around joints. The Medical-grade Ozone is injected into the damaged connective tissue around a joint to rebuild the damaged areas. Because ozone is a gas, we do not have to inject it directly into the joint for it to be effective. It defuses in and around the joint and is attracted to inflammation, causing it to be drawn to the areas of injury or damage.  When someone suffers from chronic pain, the pain has been there for so long it becomes the “new normal”. This means the healing process has stopped. When Medical-grade Ozone is injected, the properties of ozone gas mimics that part of the body being injured. It does not cause the pain or symptoms of an injury, but it starts a series of reactions that allow the body to restart the healing process. This does not mean that ozone injections are only for injuries. Almost any type of muscle or joint pain will respond in much the same way.

prolotherapy ozone injections

Why does it work? We can think of our joints as the hinge on a door. Until the hinge is fixed the door just isn’t going to open or close right and it’s the same exact story with our joints. If we are athletic or if we are just getting older there is some gradual and natural degeneration of the moving parts of the body due to ongoing recurrent mechanical stress, and failure of tissues to repair. This can come from lack of nutrients, lack of circulation, aging and inflammation. When this happens the ligaments, tendons, and cartilage become dehydrated and weaker. This results in laxity and more abnormal mechanical stress and shearing forces on the joint. Abnormal shearing forces and torsion cause more joint dysfunction.

Prolotherapy ozone injections cause repair and tightening of the lax structures, partially torn connective tissue, cartilage, muscles, and ligaments. Ozone 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/muscle to develop and results in increased range of motion and decreased pain.

Ozone Therapy And Its Benefits

What is ozone therapy?

Ozone has been used medically for many years. Ozone therapy is the injection of ozone gas into your body to treat a disease or wound. Research has found that ozone can be used to treat medical conditions by stimulating the immune system.

How Does It Work?

When ozone comes into contact with body fluids, the reaction that results causes more proteins and red blood cells. This can increase oxygen to the body. Research has shown that ozone therapy can inactivate:

  • Bacteria
  • Viruses
  • Fungi
  • Yeast
  • And Protozoa

What Does It Treat?

Ozone therapy has a variety of uses. It can help with breathing disorders, diabetes, immune disorders and it can help with pain and inflammation.

Ozone injections can help repair and tighten lax structures, partially torn connective tissue, cartilage, muscles and ligaments. Ozone halts that pain and inflammtion cycle which allows for better circulation, increased blood flow carrying nutrition and hydration of the damged tissues.

Those suffering from arthritis and other joint pain and inflammation have been shown to get relief from this type of therapy.

How Effective Is It?

Studies are being done right now and many results are promising. Several clinical trials are being conducted from heart disease to arthritis.

Research has shown that when used for osteoarthritis it can improve range of motion and delay decline. People with rheumatoid arthritis or back pain from bulging discs may also see relief from ozone therapy.

With more trials being done every day, the benefits of this therapy could prove to be far more beneficial than anyone realized!
