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.
Some of you may be familiar already with acupuncture and acupuncture points, but did you know that Legacy Clinic offers all natural pain relief shots? These shots contain all natural ingredients so they don’t carry the harmful side-effects of long term cortisone use or other agents used to relieve pain.
We have held webinars int the past which delve much further into detail of how this works in the body. With that being said, we will touch on the main points here and we suggest speaking to your doctor or joining one of our webinars for further information. Please speak to a qualified person and DO NOT trust what you find on the web! There are great articles and misleading articles out there and it is hard to know the difference.
CBD mimicks and augments the effects of compounds which naturally occur throughout our bodies. These compounds play a crucial role in a variety of physiological effects in our bodies which affect our everday lives such as: mood, energy, immunity, blood pressure, bone density and glucose metabolism to name just a few. Clearly these are some highly important processes. So what happens when the system which controls these processes isn’t functioning properly? To put it plainly, disease happens.
CBD helps to regulate this system and assist where it is needed. This could mean boosting your immune system, lowering blood pressure, or just calming anxiety. It will have different effects for different people because they themselves have different needs. The best part is that it has received high marks in several studies on a range of topics and it is safe to use without having to worry about it becoming habit forming. CBD has no addictive qualities.
There are two popular ways that CBD is sold. One is in a cream form and the other is in an oil form. They do have different purposes so it is important to know what you are looking to get relief from. The oil is administered under the tongue by a dropper. The oil works systemically meaning it is meant to help with pain over large areas of the body. It also has a calming effect which has helped many with a host of anxiety/panic disorders. The cream is more often used to treat acute pain and could be used for chronic pain in a smaller area of the body. For instance, if you have pain and inflammation in your knees, the cream can be directly applied to that area and will have better effects than the oil.
Lastly, CBD is 100% legal in all 50 states and many countries. That being said, please use caution when travelling as the cream and oil still fall under the maximum ounces allowed in carry-on luggage. Not all countries have the same laws concerning CBD so please check in advance to avoid any potential problems.
