Prolotherapy Offers an Alternative to Pain Medications or Surgery

Dr. Neal Pollack, a Milwaukee-area osteopathic doctor and neurologist, is offering prolotherapy for people suffering from chronic pain in any of several areas, from the head, neck, shoulders, chest and arms to the hips, back, pelvis, knees, legs, ankles and feet. Prolotherapy stimulates healing with injections in the affected sites to produce localized inflammation that leads to tissue strengthening and repair.

The injections involve natural solutions, such as high-concentration dextrose, and are administered in an office setting. They are a safe and effective alternative to pharmaceuticals, cortisone injections and surgery, according to Pollack, who says, “There is minimal risk and very little post-procedure downtime. Potential surgical complications are avoided. This regenerative technique has been shown to be safe, cost-effective and extremely efficient.”
