The Power Duo:How OMT + PRP/Prolotherapy Work Together to Realign and Reinforce

In the world of functional medicine and sports rehab, two powerful treatments are changing the game for those suffering from joint instability, chronic pain, or injury: Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or Prolotherapy.

Individually, they’re effective. Together, they’re transformational.

💡 Why Alignment Matters First

OMT is a hands-on technique that gently restores the natural alignment and movement of the body. When joints, fascia, and muscles are out of sync, it puts strain on the ligaments — often leading to pain, poor posture, and impaired mobility.

By using OMT, we restore symmetry, reduce restriction, and reset the body’s mechanical foundation.

🩸 Then Comes Reinforcement

PRP and Prolotherapy are regenerative treatments that stimulate healing at the cellular level. We inject the body’s own platelets (in PRP) or natural proliferative substances (in Prolo) into weakened ligaments or tendons.

The result? These structures become stronger and more stable — able to hold the alignment achieved through OMT.

🚶 Better Stance, Better Gate, Better Life

Together, this duo can:

  • Improve athletic performance

  • Prevent recurrent injuries

  • Restore natural movement patterns

  • Reduce chronic joint pain

  • Support posture and balance

Whether you're a competitive athlete or someone who wants to walk pain-free again, this approach supports both form and function.

Dr. Jana Bunsic of abundance wellness Center in East Tennessee is one of a small group of physicians nationwide combining these techniques. Utilizing cutting-edge science and creativity for customized and individualized Restorative solutions.

Telemedicine is also available for consultation to see if you are a candidate for osteopathic Manipulation, prolotherapy, or platelet rich plasma therapy.

Your body can heal when all of the factors are aligned. Seek the expertise you need, you are so worth it!
