Skiing and snowboarding are exhilarating, but if you’ve had knee injuries or struggle with osteoarthritis, you might worry about discomfort or re-injury. That’s where prolotherapy comes in—a regenerative treatment designed to help your knees perform their best.
✨ What is Prolotherapy?
Prolotherapy is a non-surgical treatment that involves injecting weakened or damaged joints. This stimulates the body’s healing response, strengthening ligaments and tendons while reducing pain and improving stability.
✨ Why is Prolotherapy Great for Skiers & Snowboarders?
Improved Joint Stability: Prolotherapy strengthens ligaments around the knee, providing better support for intense downhill runs.
Pain Relief: By addressing the root cause of pain, prolotherapy reduces discomfort from old injuries or arthritis, helping you enjoy longer days on the slopes.
Enhanced Recovery: Boosts your body’s natural ability to repair itself, so you can recover faster from wear and tear.
Quality of Life: A minimally invasive option to improve function and reduce downtime, so you can keep doing what you love. If you’re already on a surgical list, prolotherapy may help with quality of life and keeping you active while you’re in the long queue.
✨ Who Can Benefit?
Active individuals with past ACL, MCL, LCL or patellar tendon injuries injuries.
Those dealing with osteoarthritis, mensical injuries or chronic knee pain.
Anyone looking to maintain knee health for peak performance on the slopes.
Don’t let knee pain or instability hold you back this season! Prolotherapy can help you stay active, confident, and ready to tackle every run.
