Your journey begins with a personalized consultation with our experienced sports medicine physician to determine the most suitable treatment for you. If you believe you may benefit from our regenerative services and are not yet a patient, you can easily self-refer by booking a complimentary discovery call with our Registered Nurse.
Discover Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy involves the injection of a natural sugar solution to stimulate healing in chronically painful tendons or ligaments. This therapy triggers a beneficial inflammatory response, releasing growth factors that aid in tissue repair. Treatment duration varies based on individual response, typically requiring an average of 6 sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart for optimal results. Rest assured, our Aurea Medical team will support and guide you through every step of the process.
Unveiling Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP therapy uses a concentrated portion of your own blood plasma to promote natural healing within injured tissues or joints. This process harnesses the body’s innate ability to heal by releasing growth factors through a carefully administered injection. After collecting your blood, we use a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, creating the Platelet-Rich Plasma for the injection. Treatment plans are personalized, generally requiring three sessions approximately 6-12 weeks apart for best results.
Exploring Hyaluronic Acid Injections
At Aurea Medical, we offer two unique types of hyaluronic acid (HA) injections. HA is a smooth, gel-like substance that mimics the natural hyaluronic acid found in your joints. The injections work to lubricate and cushion the joint, significantly reducing pain and improving mobility. Ideal for individuals suffering from knee osteoarthritis, HA injections offer a luxurious, minimally invasive option for those seeking relief, better shock absorption, and smoother joint function. HA also comes in a less viscous, soft-tissue adapted form, that can be used to create a pain-relieving film over painful tendons and ligaments. Typical uses for this include tennis elbow and injured ligaments after ankle sprains.
Your Initial Appointment Experience
Following your complimentary discovery call with our Registered Nurse, you’ll meet with our esteemed sports medicine physician to chart the best course for your care. Should your condition be better suited to alternative treatments beyond prolotherapy, hyaluronic gel, or PRP, we will provide you with tailored options. If regenerative treatments are recommended, our clinical team will meticulously guide you through every step, including scheduling, pre and post-care, pricing, and financing options.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative therapy that harnesses the healing properties of a patient’s own blood.
During PRP treatment, a small sample of blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets and growth factors.
Once injected into the injured area, PRP stimulates tissue repair and regeneration by promoting cell growth, collagen production, and tissue remodeling.
This process accelerates healing, reduces inflammation, and supports long-term tissue health, making PRP a valuable treatment for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions like osteoarthritis.
If you have sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions like tendon injuries affecting the ankle, knee and elbow, plantar fasciitis, ligament sprains, arthritis and meniscal injuries, PRP injection therapy treatment may be an option.

Hyaluronic Acid Gel Injections
For individuals who are wanting to preserve their joints and stay active for life, or for those who have mild to moderate symptoms of osteoarthritis, hyaluronic gel injections form the baseline treatment strategy for joint protection.
Acting as a lubricant to enable joints to move smoothly over each other and as a shock absorber, viscosupplementation with hyaluronic gel injections can effectively relieve pain for conditions such as knee arthritis and osteoarthritis of numerous joints.
At Aurea Medical, we integrate hyaluronic acid gel injections into our holistic approach to managing osteoarthritis.
We frequently combine HA gel with regenerative treatments to achieve an even greater synergistic effect.

Prolotherapy
At Aurea Medical, we offer prolotherapy as a specialized treatment for tendon injuries, designed to accelerate healing and restore function with precision and care.
Prolotherapy involves the injection of a natural solution, typically containing dextrose or other substances, into targeted areas of damaged tendons.
This solution stimulates the body’s natural healing response, promoting tissue repair and strengthening the injured tendon over time.
Benefits of Prolotherapy:
Enhanced tissue healing and repair
Reduced pain and inflammation
Improved joint stability and function
Long-lasting relief from chronic tendon issues
Avoidance of surgery or prolonged medication use

Hydrodissection Therapy
If you’re experiencing nerve entrapment, scar tissue pain, or restricted mobility, our Calgary medical clinic offers hydrodissection therapy—a minimally invasive treatment designed to relieve nerve compression and improve function. This technique involves injecting a sterile fluid around the affected nerve to separate it from surrounding tissues, reducing inflammation and restoring mobility.
Hydrodissection is highly effective for conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome, and nerve-related pain in the neck, shoulders, or limbs. Our experienced medical team uses ultrasound guidance for precise, safe, and targeted treatment.
Conveniently located in Calgary, our clinic specializes in advanced pain management and regenerative medicine. Book your consultation today to see if hydrodissection is right for you!
