Dealing with chronic pain and want to regain function? Prolotherapy is a natural, safe and effective treatment for chronic pain and arthritis that does not involve surgery or drugs and has minimal downtime. Prolotherapy Injections uses the body’s natural healing ability to relieve chronic pain, strengthen injured tissues, and restore function.

With Prolotherapy, your pain is NOT covered up, instead, your injury and source of pain are healed. Common conditions treated with Prolotherapy Injections include: sciatica, back pain, meniscal tears, tendinopathy, sprained ligaments, neck pain, rotator cuff, golfer/tennis elbow, wrist/thumb arthritis, TMJ pain, and foot/heel pain.

How does Prolotherapy work?

Are You Ready To Become Pain Free?

Prolotherapy is the first option in a family of injections called Regenerative Injection Therapies (RIT). A concentrated dextrose solution is injected in joints, ligaments and tendons that are weakened and or stretched out from injury or damage. These injections create a localized, temporary area of inflammation that activates collagen producing cells and attracts numerous types of growth factors that have been shown to bring in new blood vessels, activate more fibroblasts, and bring more somatic cells to the area to further heal the injection site. It can be used years after the initial pain or problem began, as long as the person is healthy. According to research studies, biopsies confirm thicker ligaments, tendons, and cartilage after prolotherapy treatments.

Since the injections themselves are activating the body’s healing response, Dr. ACE works with each patient to optimize their healing ability prior to therapy by establishing a plan of action to get the best results from the injection therapies. Dr. ACE has studied and trained with the American Association of Orthopedic Medicine, the Naturopathic Association of Therapeutic Injections, the American Osteopathic Association of Prolotherapy, the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians as well as numerous highly skilled physicians. Dr. ACE brings you years of personal experience as well as patient successes with Prolotherapy Injections. Are you ready to heal your joints/ injuries?

More information about Prolotherapy



The treatment was first developed in the 1930s by a surgeon, Dr. Earl Gedney, who injured his own thumb. It is designed to treat musculoskeletal injuries at their root cause – damaged ligaments, tendons and/or cartilage. Soon after, doctors Hackett and Hemwall refined the treatment and dedicated their lives to prolotherapy. Today it is considered a first line therapy for many physicians, including Dr. ACE, for long-term resolution of pain.
