Prolozone Therapy In Liverpool

We offer specialist Prolozone therapy, injections and treatments in Liverpool to help with joint pain, weakness and degeneration

Here at Balance Health Centre, we’re proud to be one of the few specialist prolozone therapy clinics in the country.

Prolozone therapy involves the injection of medical ozone and nutrients to repair joints, cartilage, muscles, tendons, ligaments, meniscus, and bursae that may have suffered degeneration, injury, or become painful and weak.

It essentially stimulates the body to repair damaged tissue and cartilage.

This increase in repair activity strengthens and tightens the injured tissues, providing greater stability to the injured area, and in many cases, removes pain and stiffness.

Prolozone is a much preferred alternative to surgery, so if you’d like to speak with us now to get a free consultation, please click below.

What Is Prolozone Therapy?

Prolozone therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a precise injection of medical ozone combined with vitamins, minerals, and natural nutrients to help repair damaged or weakened tissues. The aim is to stimulate the body’s own healing response so that joints, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, muscles, and other soft tissues can regenerate rather than simply mask pain.

The approach was originally developed by American physician Dr Frank Shallenberger, who has spent decades studying the medical use of ozone. The term Prolozone comes from the idea of “proliferation therapy,” meaning to rebuild, restore, and strengthen damaged structures, combined with the healing properties of medical ozone.

In simple terms, prolozone therapy works by improving oxygen delivery and cellular function in injured areas, which encourages the body to repair tissues that have become painful, inflamed, or degenerated over time. It is commonly used for chronic joint pain, sports injuries, osteoarthritis, back and neck pain, and ligament weakness.

How Does Prolozone Treatment Work?

Prolozone treatment is straightforward, involving injections to the affected areas.

The response to treatment varies from individual to individual and depends upon your healing ability and level of injury. Some people may only need one or two treatments, whilst others will require more.

After the first few treatments, we’ll assess how you are responding and advise you regarding further treatments.

The injection process is repeated every 1-2 weeks until maximum improvement is achieved. Prolozone therapy can result in a complete absence of symptoms, even in patients who have had symptoms for several years.

What Are The Benefits Of Prolozone Injections?

Prolozone injections offer a natural way to support healing in areas that have become painful, weak, or slow to recover. By delivering medical ozone and nutrients directly into injured tissues, it helps the body repair itself rather than masking symptoms. Here are the key benefits to the treatment:

✅ Supports tissue repair by improving oxygen use in ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.
✅ Reduces chronic pain by targeting the underlying cause instead of just easing discomfort.
✅ Improves joint stability and movement, especially in worn or irritated joints.
✅ Helps lower inflammation, which can ease stiffness and swelling.
✅ Suitable for both new and long-term injuries, including arthritis and sports strains.
✅ May delay more invasive treatments, such as steroid injections or surgery.
✅ Little to no downtime, making it easy to fit into everyday life.

It is a gentle, regenerative option for people looking to restore mobility and reduce ongoing pain in a more natural, long-lasting way. If you’d like to book a free consultation, reach out to our expert team here at Balance Health Centre.

How Do I Know If Prolozone Therapy Will Help Me?

Prolozone can be a good fit if you are dealing with pain that keeps returning or an injury that never seems to heal fully. It is designed for people whose tissues need a boost to start repairing themselves again, rather than those looking for a quick numbing effect.

Prolozone could be a good option for you if:

✅ You have joint, tendon, or ligament pain that feels weak, unstable, or slow to improve.
✅ You have long-term issues like arthritis or chronic back and neck pain.
✅ You want a treatment that supports natural healing, not just symptom relief.
✅ You have tried other options such as physiotherapy, rest, or pain medication without lasting results.
✅ Your pain worsens with activity or feels better temporarily but always returns.
✅ You prefer a minimally invasive treatment with little downtime.

A proper assessment with a practitioner will confirm if prolozone suits your condition and whether it is likely to bring you meaningful relief.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) On Prolozone Treatments

Below, you can learn more about our prolozone therapy treatment in Liverpool with our FAQ.

How much does Prolozone cost?

Our Prolozone treatment costs £225 per session. This includes the initial consultation and a full diagnostic assessment, a full review of your case history and health goals, a physical examination, and the prolozone injection treatment itself.

What does a treatment plan involve?

Ozone is injected into the soft tissue of a pre-identified painful area. The ozone enters the area; it doesn’t have to be ultra-specific, as it spreads throughout the adjacent tissues. Ozone enters the cells and basically fires the cells into working again, reducing pain and starting a healing process. There is no limit on injections and no reported side effects like cortisone.

How many sessions will I need?

Because the injections start a repair process, it works with 90% of people, and 75% don’t need to come back. However, this does depend on the severity of the problem and the length of time you have had the issue.

What is the difference between Prolozone and Cortisone injections?

Prolozone is a non-surgical treatment which works to repair and heal connective tissue around joints. Cortisone is more of a treatment to mask the pain of the condition, without addressing any underlying issue.

How long does Prolozone take to work?

We have had many patients who feel the benefit of treatment immediately. However, most of the healing happens after 24-48 hours and depends upon the patient. If there is continued pain, more injections may be required.

What other areas do you cover?

As well as providing treatment in Liverpool, we also cover Widnes, Warrington, Manchester, Wirral, Runcorn and the whole of the North West. We also have clients who travel from even further afield to receive our specialist treatment. Regardless of where you are in the country, you can book an appointment at our clinic today.

Does the prolozone really work?

Many people find prolozone helpful because it supports the body’s natural healing processes rather than masking pain. By improving oxygen delivery and stimulating tissue repair, it can reduce pain and strengthen weakened areas over time. Results vary from person to person, but it is often considered a good option for chronic joint issues, ligament weakness, and long-standing injuries.

Do prolozone injections hurt?

Most people describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. You may feel pressure or a short sting during the injection, but the procedure is usually quick. Any soreness afterwards tends to settle within a day. Many patients return to normal activities straight away.

Are there side effects of the prolozone injection?

Side effects are usually minimal. Some people experience temporary soreness, redness, or a feeling of heaviness around the treated area. These effects normally pass within a day or two. Serious reactions are rare when the treatment is performed by a trained practitioner.

How long does it take for prolozone injections to work?

Some people notice improvement within a few days, especially with pain levels or mobility. Others feel gradual changes over a few weeks as the tissues begin to repair. Most treatment plans involve a series of sessions to build long-term strength and stability.

Is prolozone good for arthritis?

Yes, prolozone is often used for arthritis because it can help improve joint function, reduce inflammation, and support cartilage and soft tissue repair. Many people with knee, shoulder, or spine arthritis find it helpful, especially when other treatments have only given short-term relief.

What is prolozone made of?

Prolozone involves an injection of medical ozone combined with nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and natural compounds that support healing. This mixture helps improve oxygen use and stimulates the regeneration of ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and other soft tissues.

Can prolozone help with sports injuries?

Yes. Prolozone is commonly used for sports injuries such as sprains, strains, tendon issues, and ligament damage. It aims to speed up repair and reduce inflammation, making it useful for both recent injuries and older problems that have not fully healed.

Is there any downtime after treatment?

Downtime is usually minimal. Most people return to work or normal daily activities shortly after their appointment. You may feel a little sore, but this typically settles within a day. Your practitioner may advise avoiding intense exercise for a short period.

How long do the benefits last?

The benefits depend on the severity of the condition and how well your body responds. Some people experience long-lasting relief after a course of treatments, while others choose occasional maintenance sessions. Because the therapy supports genuine repair, improvements can be more durable than temporary pain-relief methods.

Can prolozone therapy treat chronic pain conditions?

Yes, prolozone is often chosen for chronic pain conditions, especially those linked to damaged or weakened tissues such as osteoarthritis, long-term back or neck pain, and old injuries. By supporting regeneration, it can help reduce ongoing discomfort and improve mobility.

Can prolozone therapy be used alongside other treatments at Balance Health Centre?

Absolutely. Prolozone can work well alongside physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and exercise-based rehabilitation. Combining treatments often produces stronger results, as different approaches support healing in different ways. Your practitioner can help you put together a personalised plan.
