Prolozone Therapy in Calgary AB: Oxygen-Powered Healing for Pain Relief

low back pain relief with chiropractic care

If you're searching for a non-surgical solution to joint pain or chronic inflammation in Calgary, Prolozone Therapy may be the natural option you've been looking for. Combining the power of ozone (O₃) and prolotherapy, Prolozone stimulates tissue repair, reduces pain, and promotes long-term healing, without drugs or downtime.


What Is Prolozone Therapy?

Prolozone is a regenerative injection treatment that combines:

  • Ozone gas, a highly active form of oxygen gas
  • Prolotherapy: dextrose injection as regenerative therapy

These are injected directly into damaged or painful areas—like joints, ligaments, or tendons—to increase circulation, and stimulate natural tissue repair.
It's called Prolozone because it builds on Prolotherapy (which stimulates healing) and adds the healing power of ozone.


How Prolozone Works

Ozone works at a cellular level to:

  • Increase oxygen delivery to injured tissues
  • Initiates a strong antioxidant response to neutralize free radicals
  • Reduce chronic inflammation
  • Stimulate the body's repair systems
  • Improves local circulation

When combined together, the treatment jumpstarts your body's ability to heal naturally and efficiently—even in areas with poor blood supply like tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.


Conditions We Treat with Prolozone in Calgary

Prolozone is especially effective for pain and inflammation related to:

  • Osteoarthritis (knee, hip, shoulder, hands)
  • Back and neck pain (including disc problems and sciatica)
  • Joint instability or overuse injuries
  • Ankle sprains, including ATFL tears
  • TMJ (jaw dysfunction)
  • Sports injuries and post-traumatic pain

Whether you're dealing with wear-and-tear from skiing in the Rockies or a nagging injury from daily work, Prolozone offers a natural path to healing.


What to Expect

Prolozone is a quick outpatient treatment, typically taking less than 30 minutes. Here’s what your visit might look like:

  • Assessment: We evaluate your condition and determine if Prolozone is right for you.
  • Injection: Prolotherapy solution is administered first, followed by medical-grade ozone.
  • Recovery: You can expect the same recovery time as you would with prolotherapy on its own; 1-3 days in most patients.

A series of 4–6 treatments may be recommended depending on the severity of your condition.


Why Calgarians Choose Prolozone

  • Natural & drug-free: Ideal if you want to avoid cortisone or surgery
  • Targeted relief: Focused treatment for pain right at the source
  • Safe & well-tolerated: Minimal side effects and no long-term risks
  • Effective for chronic conditions: Especially when other treatments haven’t worked

With Calgary’s active lifestyle—from hiking and biking to winter sports—Prolozone helps many of our patients get back to movement without masking symptoms or relying on medications.
