Are you plagued with pain in your knees? Do you have a persistent neck ache that grinds on your nerves? Have you almost given up hope of ever escaping the pain of your old sports injury? Stop! You must learn about Prolozone.The first way to investigate something new to you is to define it. That being the case, we present this blog as Part One of our Blog Spotlight for August 2013 by posing the definitive question: What is Prolozone Therapy?According to the experts, Prolozone® is “a homeopathic/oxygen-ozone injection technique developed and pioneered by our president Dr. Frank Shallenberger. It is excellent for all forms of musculoskeletal and joint pain including chronic neck and back pain, rotator cuff injuries, degenerative and arthritic hips and knees, degenerated discs, and shoulder and elbow pain. Because in many cases Prolozone actually corrects the pathology of the disorder, there is a 75% chance for the chronic pain sufferer to become permanently pain-free.”

Our own Dr. Kalidas trained with Dr. Frank Shallenberger, in the knowledge, care and technique needed to administer this miraculous medical protocol. We have seen patients bounce back from years of painful suffering to normal activity, when they have enjoyed the benefits of Prolozone. Click here, on this very site, on a page of complete listings of all the types of conditions in which we have seen startling results from Prolozone.

What Do We Do In A Prolozone Session?

In addition to anti-inflammatory medicines, vitamins, minerals, and local anesthesia, the offending area of pain is injected with “medical grade ozone, a highly reactive form of pure oxygen, to create a curative response in the body.” What is the power of oxygen? The American Academy of Ozonotherapy explains, “The body has the potential to renew and regenerate itself. When it becomes sick it is because this potential has been blocked. The reactive properties of ozone stimulate the body to remove many of these impediments thus allowing the body to do what it does best – heal itself.” Click here to see the above quotes in context, and find a basic understanding of the science behind prolozone.

What Does Medical Grade Ozone Do For The Body?

1. Ozone fights viruses in a variety of ways, most amazingly, it oxidizes the reproductive system of a virus.

2. Ozone oxidizes arterial plaque. Scientists have proven that it breaks down plaque involved in both Arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis.

3. Ozone increases the flexibility and elasticity of red blood cells. “When one views a red blood cell under a microscope, it looks like a disc. In the capillaries, where they pick-up (lungs) and release (tissue) oxygen, these discs stretch out into the shape of an oval or umbrella.” Obviously, the more elastic, the better, for a red blood cell.”

4. Ozone makes the anti-oxidant enzyme work better. These are but four of the healthy benefits of ozone. Would you like to learn more? Click on this excellent article.

You can see how these benefits would help if you suffered from such a condition as carpal tunnel syndrome, a torn tendon, TMJ syndrome, or sciatica.

Now here is the astonishing fact behind this treatment; it is not just a therapy that makes you feel better; it actually helps you get better! As it says on our Prolozone page, “Because Prolozone treatments also result in cartilage regeneration, the technique is also remarkably effective even for severe cases of osteo arthritis of the hip or knee. The good thing about Prolozone is that it is not just a treatment for pain. In many cases it may represent a permanent fix.”

So the result of prolozone is not only the reduction of pain, but the replacement and repair of damaged tissue.
