Prolotherapy Injections

Prolotherapy is a regenerative injection therapy that harness a person’s own innate ability to heal. We inject a combination of dextrose (sugar-water) and local anesthetic right into damaged tissue, which stimulates healing and the production of new, healthy tissue.

Prolotherapy is a regenerative injection therapy that harness a person’s own innate ability to heal. We inject a combination of dextrose (sugar-water) and local anesthetic right into damaged tissue, which stimulates healing and the production of new, healthy tissue. Prolotherapy increases joint stability, ultimately improving function and decreasing pain.

Traditional approaches with anti-inflammatory drugs and surgery often fail to stabilize the joint and relieve pain permanently. Prolotherapy has the unique ability to directly address the cause of instability and repair the weakened sites, resulting in permanent stabilization of the joint. When precisely injected into the site of pain or injury, these techniques create a mild, controlled inflammation which stimulates the body to lay down new tendon or ligament fibers, resulting in a strengthening of the weakened structure. When the joint becomes strong, pain will be relieved.

By adding nutrients straight to the blood, we are able to skip the digestive system and achieve therapeutic plasma concentrations that are not possible through diet or oral supplementation. Vitamin infusion IV’s packed with vitamins and minerals designed to help improve your overall health and wellness. IV... Read More

IV therapy is the practice of administering nutrients directly into the venous system. By adding nutrients straight to the blood, we are able to skip the digestive system and achieve therapeutic plasma concentrations that are not possible through diet or oral supplementation. Vitamin infusion IV’s packed with vitamins and minerals designed to help improve your overall health and wellness.

IV Therapy appointments are usually 45 minutes long, but depending on the size of your vein, this time frame may be shorter. We ask that our patients to have eaten within 3 hours before getting their IV, and have consumed 1L of water.

Nathan Merritt
(He/Him/His) MTAA #2021-74600

I, Nathan Merritt graduated from Massage therapy school back in 2016 out of Ontario. The initial moment that peaked my interest for massage was back in 2011 when I was competing in Red Bull Crashed Ice. Prior to my event starting I was extremely sore and didn’t feel ready. Within a 30 minute sport style massage treatment, I was feeling a night and day difference! From that moment on, I had an interest in being able to provide something like that for people and athletes alike.

After now practicing massage therapy here in Alberta for nearly 2 years, I’ve learned a lot of things. My goal with each client that walks through my door is to find your bodies point of symmetry. Imbalances are very common in each individual and they vary drastically. My ideology is to get your body back to its best point of “symmetry”. Through regular massage, treatment plans, strengthening, stretching and a mobility routine, we can work towards improving and maintaining most body and mind situations. At the end of the day, it’s a team effort always. I look forward to working with you.
