Your Path to Optimal Health

PLATELET-RICH PLASMA THERAPY

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous treatment—meaning it is created entirely from your own blood. During preparation, your plasma is gently separated and enriched so that the concentration of platelets becomes approximately 5–10 times higher than what is typically found in circulating blood. Platelets are small, disc-shaped cells that carry powerful growth factors, proteins, and cytokines, all of which naturally support the repair and regeneration of bone and soft tissues.

PRP contains a diverse array of these growth factors, each derived from your body’s platelets. Working together, they help guide the healing process in several meaningful ways: reducing inflammation, supporting healthy cell growth, and signaling the body’s immune and repair systems to respond more effectively. Depending on the specific cytokines present, multiple metabolic pathways are activated—each contributing to improved cell recovery and overall tissue healing.

This natural, biologically guided process allows PRP to enhance healing while remaining gentle, safe, and uniquely tailored to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

  •  PRP is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment using the platelets in your own blood to stimulate growth and healing properties in your joints. Your blood is drawn and “spun” to separate the platelets which is then injected into the affected joint. PRP has been used over the years to stimulate healing in both bones and soft tissue areas. 

  • The benefits of PRP are astounding, and many of our patients experience advantages such as:

    • Decreased pain during exercise and at rest

  •  Blood is drawn from your arm and put into a centrifugal spinner that separates the platelets from the whole blood. The platelets are then injected into the site for repair and decreased inflammation. 

  • PRP injections can be painful, however the pain is mainly soreness at the injection site and should improve in 24 to 48 hours.  There are no physical restrictions after the procedure.  Patients report seeing improvements in one to two weeks post treatment with peak results in six to twelve weeks. 

  • We offer injections for a range of joints and common areas of discomfort, including the elbows, hips, shoulders, knees, and wrists (such as carpal tunnel). Treatment areas are determined based on your specific symptoms and needs.
