Prolotherapy is the injection of a sugar solution and local anaesthetic into injured tissue. At Nepean Specialist Sports Medicine this is used to treat ligament, tendon, and joint capsule injuries. In a study done looking at 150 patients treated at NSSM with prolotherapy 70% reported complete relief of their symptoms or a return to their previous level of activity without any further problems.
Each person is different. Each injury is subtly different and each person's expectations are different. The doctors at Nepean Specialist Sports Medicine can assess your injury and your needs and recommend treatment appropriate to your injury and your budget.
At NSSM the treatment offered depends on the type and severity of the injury and the needs of the patient. Apart from the usual treatment a doctor can provide soft tissue injuries can be treated with Cortisone, prolotherapy, platelet rich plasma, or regenexx SCP. Depending on the cause, painful joints can be treated with the above treatments or regenexx SD.
Regenexx SD is a stem cell treatment that helps reduce pain from damage to cartilage within the joint, whether this is due to osteoarthritis or an acute injury. It is a minimally invasive treatment that does not require surgery to the joint.
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is blood that has been centrifuged to separate the cells from the remaining fluid. This fluid is called plasma. It contains most of the platelets from the original blood sample. Platelets contain many chemicals that assist with tissue growth and healing.
