Yes: After an injury occurs, ankle sprain or laceration, our body runs a healing program to remove the most damaged tissue and repair/regrow the injured parts. Prolotherapy involves creating a new injury with the point of the needle that will restart/rerun the body's healing program. Formula injected at the time will have some effect toward increasing the healing. www.blatmanhealthandwellness.com.
