Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections harness your body's own healing ingredients and re-concentrate them in areas experiencing pain, inflammation, or in need of repair.
Why Choose PRP?
PRP is a safe and minimally invasive procedure to help manage chronic pain without the use of opioids or medication. PRP injections are particularly effective for soft tissue injuries, joint pain, and minor tendon and muscle tears.
Commonly Treated by PRP:
- Sports injuries
- Knee pain
- Wrist pain
- Tennis elbow
- Arthritis
- Tendonitis
- Shoulder pain
- Plantar fasciitis
- Meniscus tears
- Cartilage damage
- Tendon injuries
How Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy Works
PRP therapy uses a concentrated sample of your own platelets to stimulate healing and tissue regeneration. Platelets are rich in growth factors.
Minimally Invasive - PRP treatments are administered in-office and require little down-time.
Precision Treatment - Injections can be guided using ultrasound technology for incredibly safe and accurate delivery of plasma.
Powerful Healing - Platelets are harvested and spun from the patient's blood, then re-concentrated into an injectable plasma. The growth factors in the platelets help to amplify the body's repair and anti-inflammatory processes.
Dynamic Application - PRP is safe for treating most areas of the body, and even has application in bolstering sexual function in men and women.
