Looking for a non-surgical, less invasive treatment for chronic joint or ligament pain?

Prolotherapy is an injection-based treatment designed to stimulate cellular growth and trigger the body's own natural healing response. It helps to strengthen and repair injured or weakened ligaments, tendons, and joints that contribute to ongoing pain and instability.

Benefits of prolotherapy include:
✔️ Reduced pain and inflammation
✔️ Improved joint stability
✔️ Enhanced mobility and function
✔️ Support for long-term tissue healing
✔️ Minimally invasive alternative to surgery

At East-West Rheumatology, Dr. Zarbalian takes a comprehensive approach toward managing musculoskeletal pain. He uses prolotherapy as an effective modality for patients experiencing conditions such as osteoarthritis, ligament injuries, tendon pain, or chronic joint discomfort.

Every patient is unique and Dr. Zarbalian's treatment recommendations are based on thorough evaluations of his patient's symptoms, medical history, and personal health goals.

Dr. Zarbalian recently attended a 2-day Chinese herbal medicine seminar led by Dr. Mazin Al-Khafaji, a master herbalist and recognized as one of the leading clinicians and teachers in the field of dermatology and Chinese medicine.
The focus of the seminar was on Eczema and Rheumatoid Arthritis – two increasingly prevalent and complex conditions – through the refined lens of Chinese medicine. We are pleased to incorporate these new insights into our clinical approach to further enhance integrative care for rheumatologic conditions.
By incorporating these practices, targeted herbal prescriptions can reduce arthritic pain, swelling, and stiffness while regulating inflammation and supporting immune balance—ultimately improving quality of life.
