Therapy in Calgary

Regenerative Injection Therapies (RIT) have been researched and practiced by doctors as early as the 1950s, and continue to evolve and improve to this day. These injections have been shown to be beneficial for tissue regeneration, as well as joint, muscle, and spinal pain. At Dr. Schlee’s clinic in Calgary, we offer multiple types of Regenerative Injection Therapy in a safe and controlled environment.

Ozone possesses the potential to treat ailments such as infections, arthritis, circulatory disorders, lung and heart diseases, as well as many other compromising conditions. Ozone moves through the circulation to areas of the body where it promotes healing of injured tissues, stimulates the immune system and minimizes inflammation.
