  • Arthritis

Success rates for prolotherapy vary depending on the condition being treated, but overall, they are very good. A 2020 review of studies found that prolotherapy had a success rate of greater than 50% improvement in pain level in 80-90% of patients. For example, a study on the use of prolotherapy to treat knee osteoarthritis found that 91% of patients reported significant improvement in pain and function after just 3-4 injections. Another study on the use of prolotherapy to treat chronic shoulder pain found that 85% of patients reported significant improvement in pain and function after 6 months of treatment.
