Prolozone Therapy for Ankle & Achilles Pain
Ankle & Achilles
Whenever you sprain your ankle, you are much more likely to sprain it again in the future, and this can lead to chronic ankle instability.
This means that a sprained ankle can gradually trigger a cascade of degenerative condition.
Prolozone therapy could allow the joints to regenerate. So, anyone with an acute ankle injury, such as an ATFL tear, or chronic ankle pain conditions, such as osteoarthritis should consider Prolozone as an effective treatment to help stabilize the ankle joint and prevent premature degeneration.
Symptoms caused by Ankle Instability
- Ankle discoloration
- Ankle swelling
- Ankle pain
- Arch cramping
- Crepitation (cracking) with movement
- In mild cases, there may be a propensity for the ankle to continually turn inward
- Inability to move the ankle properly
- Loss of range of motion
- Loss of muscle strength
- Numbness in toes
- Pain even when no weight is put on the ankle
- Referral foot and toe pain
If the joints in the ankle are too much, it is likely that pain will appear. This is when patients have been diagnosed with joint instability.
Why is the joint unstable? Because the support structures, the ligaments and tendons, have been stretched and have become weakened.
Prolozone Therapy for Ankle Pain
Ligaments do not have blood supply, so therefore do not heal well on their own. Ankle instability can quickly become a chronic, painful condition.
This instability can also lead to destructive joint motions every time the ankle joint is used, wearing down the cartilage and causing further structural damage.
Our practitioners understand the need for ankle stability to prevent the long-term damage resulting from ankle instability.
Therefore, we utilize Comprehensive Prolozone therapy to restore the ligament strength and integrity which improves the ankle joint function.
Prolozone therapy is likely to reduce cartilage degeneration by reducing destructive joint motions and allows the ankle to heal.
Many times, MRI might show that nothing is wrong with the ankle. This is due to the fact that MRIs do not assess movement or abnormal movement, so partial ligament damage might not appear on an MRI study.
A proper assessment of the range of motion of the joint, as well as MSK ultrasound x-ray where we can assess the joint movement of your ankle and stress the joint to see what is the problem is on while you are having symptoms.
Excessive movement or soft end feel compared to the non-painful side while inverting the ankle is a sign of lateral ankle instability
Common Causes of Ankle & Achilles Pain
Ankle and Achilles pain can develop due to various conditions, such as:
- Achilles tendonitis or tendon tears
- Ankle sprains and ligament injuries
- Overuse or repetitive strain
- Arthritis in the ankle joint
- Cartilage wear and degeneration
If left untreated, these problems can lead to chronic pain, instability, and limited mobility.
How Prolozone Therapy Works for Ankle & Achilles Pain
Prolozone therapy for ankle and Achilles pain involves carefully injecting a mixture of ozone gas, vitamins, and minerals into the affected area. This process helps to:
- Increase oxygen supply to injured tissues
- Reduce inflammation and swelling
- Stimulate collagen and tissue repair
- Strengthen ligaments and tendons
- Improve ankle function and stability
Many patients experience pain relief and improved mobility within just a few sessions.

Some notable benefits include:
- Non-surgical and natural treatment option
- Minimal downtime with quick recovery
- Long-term pain relief and improved function
- Effective for tendon injuries, arthritis, and ankle sprains
- Supports faster recovery from sports-related injuries
FAQs
Chronic ankle sprains, instability, or arthritis can be hard to heal—especially if rest and rehab haven’t helped. Prolozone Therapy offers a powerful, non-surgical solution that targets the root cause by reducing inflammation and repairing damaged tissue, so you can get back on your feet naturally.
Yes! If you're dealing with tendonitis or recurring Achilles pain, Prolozone can help stimulate tissue repair, improve circulation, and ease discomfort. Many patients find lasting relief without relying on medications or facing surgery.
Not at all. The injections are quick and well-tolerated. You might feel a mild pinch or slight pressure, but there’s minimal discomfort and no major downtime. Most people return to daily activities the same day.
Everyone heals differently, but most patients see noticeable improvements within 3–6 sessions. Some start to feel better after just one or two visits as the body responds to the regenerative effects of ozone and nutrients.
"I have been attending Proback for several months now and my experience has been truly amazing, the staff are lovely and a pleasure to deal with, you really can tell it is a family run business you are not just a number and that they genuinely want to get you better and they are not just after your money.You are greeted by the reception team Nessa, Claudia, Melinda & Kyra to name a few who are all lovely and a pleasure to deal with, the practice manager Dipa goes above and beyond to make sure you are looked after the whole reception team are all a pleasure to deal with.The Chiropractors, Osteopaths and Physiotherapists themselves are very knowledgeable and lovely also, they actually listen to what symptoms you are experiencing and any feedback you give them regarding your symptoms and changes in your symptoms as your treatment progresses.I have been suffering lower back issues since around 2013 and have been unable, to work since early 2018 due to being in constant unbearable pain. I even had back surgery in 2019 which initially seemed very positive however I could tell something was still wrong after around 6 months but no one would listen to me, I even got told I should see a phycologist, however 18 months after the back surgery I developed almost constant debilitating lower back pain and started experiencing almost constant muscle spasms accompanied by buttock pain on my right side, in late 2022 I started noticing a weakness below the knee causing me to severely twist my right ankle at the end of 2022. At the end of 2023 I started developing sciatica-like symptoms then at the beginning of the 2024 I also started to lose the ability to walk and I was reliant on crutches for several months. I have lost count how many consultants I have actually seen telling me there is nothing obviously wrong with me and I need to focus on rehab exercises. At this point I had already done over 5 years of rehab exercises under the care of multiple Osteopaths, Physio and even a PT after being told my symptoms were not spinal. However, after doing some research, I suspected something called Piriformis Syndrome might be contributing to my symptoms again no one would listen to me, after getting fed up of being told there is nothing obviously wrong with me and that it’s my head. I decided to visit Proback it’s the best decision I have made in a long time.When having shockwave therapy usually initially see Arlind the Managing Practitioner, he is very knowledgeable and such a lovely guy usually followed one of the Proback Practitioners which is usually Shola who is amazing or occasionally Damanie or Ophelia who are all very knowledgeable and lovely. Damanie even added something to my treatment plan which helped prove one of my contributing issues was indeed Piriformis Syndrome and also reduce my pain dramatically. I have more recently also started to also have Prolozone therapy which is normally administered by Dr Christian the lead practitioner and Mudasir who is one of the Physiotherapists they are both very knowledgeable and lovely, Dr Christian also makes your feel very welcome and at ease with humorous side. More recently Samra and Blessy who are also Physiotherapists been treating me they are also lovely. I have noticed my pain has been reduced by over 90% when combining the Prozone Therapy with the Shockwave and Decompression Therapy. I even got told by an old friend I move young man now not someone more elderly like I used too.My health issues are very complex and I am not fully pain free yet I recently had a few weeks where I felt the best I had in over 10 years. Together with Proback we have now managed to pinpoint the key areas that are causing my remaining issues. ]At the end of the day, you have to also put the work in also if you want to get better, you can’t expect many years of ongoing issues to suddenly disappear with just a few treatments. I have few setbacks along the way however I am confident that with Proback’s help I am now very close to being pain free without any serious mobility issues.I can honestly say I have had better results with Proback over several months than I have had over the last 5 years with multiple consultants, chiropractors, osteopaths and physios etc. THANK YOU."

"During the lock-down period this year (2020) I often suffered severe sciatica pain in my right leg. It manifested itself by pain radiating down the back of the thigh and calf, the ankle and foot felt strangulated and often the sole of the foot was numb. The team at Proback gave me an individualised treatment programme with shockwave, decompression treatment and exercises. This relieved the pain gradually and the feeling in my foot came back. It means I have my life back! I am very grateful to all of the Proback team. The team at Proback is very professional, has been always friendly and empathetic and I have no hesitation in recommending them."
