What is Prolozone Therapy?
Prolozone Therapy is a regenerative injection technique offered by Sunridge Medical as an alternative to traditional drug or surgical treatments. It involves the injection of ozone and other natural remedies into certain areas of the body to regenerate tissue and improve joint mobility, providing long-term relief from chronic pain and inflammation.
Used to treat various chronic pain conditions, prolozone is a type of ozone therapy that is is a regenerative medicine treatment. It involves injecting ozonated gas, minerals, vitamins and anti-inflammatory agents into the affected area. The ozone in the solution helps to reduce inflammation and pain. It is a safe and effective treatment option for many people with chronic pain.
How Does Prolozone Therapy Work?
Prolozone therapy works by stimulating the body’s natural healing process, accelerating repair at the cellular level while gently stimulating circulation. In addition, it can help reduce scarring in soft tissue due to its anti-inflammatory properties. The result is improved well-being and enhanced quality of life for those suffering from musculoskeletal problems such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, ligament sprains/strains, arthritis, spinal disc herniation, and more.
The Science of Prolozone
Pain is a well-known symptom associated with the body having an inflammatory response, and research has studied whether Oxygen-Ozone (O2-03) therapy could be beneficial in managing this issue. Studies support how O2-03 generates increased serotonin production as well as activating internal mechanisms of relieving pain naturally – leading to potential relief through antinociceptive pathways activation.
Long History of Use
For decades, clinicians around the world have been using therapeutic injections of ozone to relieve pain in muscles, tendons and ligaments as well arthritic joints. Numerous case studies showcase its ability to reduce symptoms associated with osteoarthritis while double-blind randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of which it can treat back aches – even those accompanied by sciatica! Ozone has impressive oxidation properties that contribute largely towards tissue recovery and regeneration through stimulating growth factor production.

Prolozone Response
The following conditions respond very favorably to Prolozone. However, if a patient is experiencing pain that is not in one of these areas, the therapy should be implemented as many painful areas respond well.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Chronic back pain
- Chronic neck pain
- Degenerated discs
- Degenerative & arthritic ankles
- Degenerative & arthritic hips
- Degenerative & arthritic knees
- Dental infections
- Heel spurs
- Neuromas
- Non-union fractures
- Painful scars
- Pelvic disorders
- Plantar fasciitis
- Post-op pain
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Sciatica
- Sinus infections
- Sports injuries
- Tennis elbow
- TMJ
