The current number of practitioners of prolotherapy in the United States is estimated as several thousand based on conference attendance and physician listings on relevant Web sites, including both independent physicians and members of multi specialty groups. Currently, Prolotherapy Regenerative Medicine is one of the 23 specialty colleges of the American Osteopathic Association (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.prolotherapycollege.org\">http:\/\/www.prolotherapycollege.org<\/a>). Training \u00a0of doctors of medicine and doctors of osteopathy is primarily outside medical schools, for example, through postgraduate-level conferences and service learning projects through universities, professional organizations, and foundations (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fammed.wisc.edu\/prolotherapy\">www.fammed.wisc.edu\/prolotherapy<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaomed.org\">www.aaomed.org<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hacketthemwallpatterson.org\">www.hacketthemwallpatterson.org<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Hypertonic dextrose is the most commonly used prolotherapy solution, with favorable outcomes shown in multiple clinical trials.3 It is inexpensive, readily available, and reported to be safe. This review focuses on the basic science and clinical evidence of prolotherapy using hypertonic dextrose solutions. The term dextrose is interchangeable with glucose because dextrose is the dexter (right-handed) form of glucose found in animals and humans. For this discussion, the term dextrose is preferred.<\/p>\n<p>Athletes and active individuals who endure chronic pain from tendon injuries or\u00a0<b>osteoarthritis<\/b> may finally get relief from a safe, non-surgical procedure. It&#8217;s called Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy, and it utilizes platelets from the athletes&#8217; own blood to rebuild a damaged tendon or cartilage.<\/p>\n<p>Docere Wellness Centre is excited to offer Prolotherapy here in Calgary and surrounding area at an introductory price until February 28th. <a href=\"https:\/\/docerewellness.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact our clinic<\/a> to book and find relief!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prolotherapy NW Calgary Prolotherapy is increasingly popular in the United States and internationally.
