What Resources and Contact Options Are Available on the Prolotherapy College Website?
Updated
The site at prolotherapycollege.org is the home of The American Osteopathic Association of Prolotherapy Regenerative Medicine, an affiliate of the American Osteopathic Association. It is organized mainly around professional resources—physician materials, training, board certification, membership, and practice opportunities—plus a phone line and a "Get in Touch" option for contact. If you are a patient looking for a treating physician, the site's own navigation does not list a "find a doctor" section, so plan to call or use the contact form to ask.
Physician and Professional Resources
The navigation groups the professional material under several headings:
- Physicians — a dedicated section for practicing physicians.
- Physician Resources and Educational & Physician Materials — reference and educational content for clinicians.
- Prolotherapy Board Certification — information on the certification pathway.
- Training — training-related information.
- Medical Practice Opportunities — listings or information about practice openings.
- Memberships — membership information for the organization.
- Exhibitor Information — details for organizations that want to exhibit, presumably at the association's conference.
- Partners and Links — affiliated organizations and external links.
There is also an Offices & Board of Trustees page for the association's leadership and a Testimonials page.
Patient-Facing Content
For visitors seeking background on the treatment, the site provides:
- What Is Prolotherapy? — defines prolotherapy as stimulation of fibrous connective tissue formation at a specific location through a regenerative modality.
- How Does Prolotherapy Work? — explains the mechanism: a precise injection of a mild irritant at the site of a torn or stretched ligament or tendon creates a mild, controlled injury that triggers the body's healing response, laying down new tissue and tightening the weakened structure. Repeated treatments build tissue gradually. The same inflammatory principle is described for varicose and spider veins, which contract and may become smaller or vanish.
- Conditions listed — whiplash injuries and neck pain; knee conditions, ankle and foot pain, and plantar fasciitis; shoulder pain and rotator cuff tears/tendinopathy; tennis and golfer's elbow and wrist pain; herniated disc pain; osteoarthritis pain; mid and low back pain; and varicose vein therapies.
- Candidacy — the site states each patient must be evaluated with patient history, physical exam, X-ray exam, and full laboratory workup before treatment, and that success depends on the history of damage, overall health and healing ability, and underlying nutritional deficiencies.
An updated informational brochure is offered for purchase.
Contact Options
- Phone: (302) 530-2489
- Get in Touch: a contact section on the site (the excerpt does not specify whether it is a form or email link).
The site does not publish pricing for membership, training, certification, or the brochure, and no login requirements are stated in the available material—confirm costs and access by calling or using the contact option.
Conference
The navigation references a 2027 Spring Conference, which is the event tied to the exhibitor information section. Details such as dates, location, and registration are not included in the available page content.
