About Prolotherapy and Platelet Rich Plasma

Evergreen Wellness is a leading pioneer in the field of prolotherapy and PRP for the Kentuckiana region having practiced for the past 12 years.
Prolotherapy is utilized by professional athletes, weekend warriors and people with difficult chronic injuries prolotherapy is a growing modality of regenerative medicine. Classic prolotherapy uses a  hypertonic glucose solution with B12 and other sclerotherapeutic agents.   Injections are made to the ligaments, tendons and joints causing the growth and strengthening of these connective tissues and reducing inflammation and  pain it while strengthening the connectve tissue.  In some cases even the cartilage surface of joints improves.

With platelet rich plasma (PRP) the growth factors of your blood are isolated after a simple blood draw and delivered in a concentrated way to the injured area repairing tendon tears, ligament tears and joint surfaces.  This has helped many people avoid or delay rotator cuff, knee, ankle, back and many other surgeries and refrain from the overuse of toxic pain medications. These techniques are very safe and much less painful then imagined and the potential to reduce pain and improve function are immense. 

The period of regeneration is about 10-14 weeks and continues for many , many months and the changes are permanent in most cases. Depending on the injury significant improvement occurs over 1-4 months. Injections are 2-4 weeks apart in general and the number of injections depends upon the injury.  Usually 2-8 is common for classic prolotherapy  and 1-3 injections for  PRP.  PRP is most often used on joint spaces and larger ligaments and tendons and is fantastic for epicondylitis (tennis and golfers elbows) that won't heal. At The Evergreen Centre we use "Pure PRP" which is more concentrated, less painful, and often requires less treatments. All prolotherapy and PRP is backed with prolozone in an effort to enhance the healing process.

"My right knee continues to get better every day after my PRP treatment. I am playing pickleball three days per week and bowled in two leagues last week with only a little soreness. I turned 70 last Friday and bowled my first 300 since starting my treatment one year ago."
