  • Prolotherapy and other injections

  • What is H3 Prolotherapy

    Prolotherapy is an injection that contains a potential irritant, such as a dextrose solution. The irritant is thought to trigger the body’s healing response. Once activated, the body will start to strengthen and repair damaged ligaments in the joint.

    When should I consider H3 prolothrapy

    The simplest answer is when you have unresolved pain. Often the more complicated answer is because you have already tried rest, massage, stretching, exercise, pain and nerve medications, muscle relaxers, cortisone injections, adjustments, stimulators, braces, taping, surgery, Botox®, pain creams or patches, Platelet Rich Plasma, stem cell therapy,  … yet you still have pain that is limiting your enjoyment of life or ability to work prolotherapy can be a solution for your pain, make an appointment for consultation with Dr. Sokhandan.

    How long does it take?

    The total appointment time takes approximately 30 minutes up to one hours, including preparation, treatment and recovery time. Performed in a medical office, prolotherapy relieves pain without the risks of surgery, without general anesthesia or hospital stays, and without a prolonged recovery period. In fact, most people return back to their work or usual activities right after the procedure.

    What are the expected results?

    Initially, mild but temporary swelling, discomfort and stiffness may occur. Some patients see noticeable improvement after the first sessions are completed, while others realize increasing improvement after each successive visit. Research studies show that over 80 percent of people treated with prolotherapy report a good or excellent result. Many of them are permanently cured. Not only do they enjoy simple pleasures again – a good night’s sleep, sitting through a movie, taking a walk – but many also return to physical activities such as light sports, biking, running, skiing, climbing even waterskiing.
