Prolotherapy in Duncan, BC
What Is Prolotherapy?
Prolotherapy is a regenerative injection service designed to help support the body’s natural response in areas of connective tissue irritation, instability, or discomfort.
Prolotherapy may be considered for chronic musculoskeletal concerns involving ligaments, tendons, and joints that have not responded fully to rest, rehabilitation, or other conservative care approaches alone.
At Start Line Health, prolotherapy may be used as part of a broader orthopedic and rehabilitation strategy focused on pain management, improved function, and long-term recovery support.

How Prolotherapy Works
Prolotherapy involves targeted injections into areas of connective tissue irritation or instability, such as ligaments, tendons, or joints.
The goal of prolotherapy is to help support the body’s natural recovery response in areas where symptoms may be persistent or slower to improve.
Care plans vary depending on symptoms, clinical presentation, severity, and recovery goals. In many cases, prolotherapy may be combined with physiotherapy or rehabilitation to support mobility, function, and longer-term recovery planning.
