Prolozone Therapy
If you suffer from pain in the pelvis or bladder region, you probably know that safe, natural treatments are hard to find. Many pain medications have addictive qualities or undesirable side effects, and many physical procedures are invasive and require a long healing time. Patients who want to treat their pain without medicine or surgery often feel like they have few choices.
At Coyle Institute, we offer patients Prolozone therapy, a regenerative treatment using injected ozone (O₃) to reduce pain and inflammation. Prolozone therapy combines ozone with nutrients to stimulate healing at the source of the pain. Unlike IV ozone therapy, Prolozone is injected into the area of discomfort, such as the pelvis, joints and bladder region, with exceptional results.
Prolozone therapy is used to treat patients with several conditions, such as:
- Interstitial Cystitis (IC)
- Pelvic floor dysfunction
- Chronic joint or muscle pain
- Bladder pain and inflammation
Why Prolozone? There are many reasons. It's a natural, non-surgical, and well-tolerated treatment. The benefits outshine those of conventional pain treatments, helping patients enjoy reduced discomfort and an improved quality of life.
How Prolozone Therapy Works
Prolozone therapy uses Ozone gas (O₃) injected at the site of pain or discomfort. Ozone gas consists of three oxygen atoms. This is different from regular oxygen (O₂), which consists of two oxygen atoms. Injecting ozone gas into the area increases oxygenation and circulation at the cellular level. This decreases pain by calming inflamed nerves and tissues, and stimulates the body’s healing processes through the proliferation of cells in injured parts of the body.
This creates anti-inflammatory effects similar to those of medication, but unlike medication, these effects are all-natural and regenerative. Prolozone has been a trusted method of treating pain and healing injured areas since the 1990s.
What to Expect from Treatment
Prolozone therapy is an in-office procedure that usually takes about 30 to 40 minutes. There's no anesthesia or hospital stay required, and most patients need minimal downtime. In fact, many people can resume normal activities immediately after Prolozone is administered.
Some patients get only one treatment and then are finished, while others return for multiple treatments in our office. The number of treatments required depends on the severity of the condition and your response to the treatment.
Following Prolozone therapy, many patients report:
- Reduced pelvic or bladder pain or discomfort
- Fewer flare-ups
- Less urgency
- Improved quality of life

Pain Relief & Inflammation Treatment
Prolozone therapy works especially well for inflammatory pelvic conditions, including interstitial cystitis, because it targets the root causes of the problem - not just the symptoms. For those who suffer from IC and who haven't responded to medications or physical therapy, Prolozone therapy offers hope.
For patients who already have a whole-body care plan at Coyle Institute, Prolozone therapy integrates well when combined with other therapies. If you have had surgery or trauma, Prolozone may also support healing and improve the quality of life.
