Prolozone Therapy for Joint Pain
Advanced regenerative injections combining ozone with nutrients to heal damaged joints, relieve chronic pain, and help you avoid surgery. Experience natural joint restoration.
What is Prolozone Therapy?
Prolozone therapy is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment developed by Dr. Frank Shallenberger that combines prolotherapy (injection of healing substances) with medical ozone. The name comes from "prolo" (proliferation/growth) and "ozone."
During the treatment, a solution containing vitamins, minerals, and natural healing agents is injected into damaged or painful areas, followed by ozone gas. This combination stimulates the body's natural repair mechanisms, reduces inflammation, and promotes the growth of new healthy tissue.
Unlike cortisone injections that only mask pain temporarily, Prolozone addresses the root cause by actually healing the damaged tissues. Many patients who were told they need surgery have found relief through this non-surgical approach.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Prolozone Therapy?
Prolozone is a regenerative injection technique that combines prolotherapy (injecting nutrients/vitamins) with ozone gas. It's designed to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and regenerate damaged tissues in joints, ligaments, and tendons.
How is Prolozone different from cortisone injections?
Unlike cortisone which temporarily reduces inflammation but can weaken tissue over time, Prolozone actually stimulates tissue repair and regeneration. It addresses the root cause of pain rather than just masking symptoms.
Is the injection painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. We use fine needles and the procedure is well-tolerated. Some may feel pressure during the injection and mild soreness for a day or two afterward, which indicates the healing response is activated.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients see improvement after 3-6 treatments, spaced 1-2 weeks apart. The exact number depends on the severity and chronicity of your condition. Many patients experience significant relief that lasts for months to years.
Can Prolozone help me avoid surgery?
Many patients have been able to avoid or delay surgery with Prolozone therapy. It's particularly effective for joint pain, disc problems, and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Dr. Shah can assess your specific situation during a consultation.
