Helping you get back faster
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma and is commonly used as a regenerative treatment for musculoskeletal injuries.
In cases where surgery may be too aggressive and physical therapy may be too conservative, PRP serves a very nice niche to try to encourage healing.
The process of collecting PRP is performed by taking a sample of your own blood and utilizing a specialized centrifuge to separate red and white cells from plasma.
The plasma is full of growth factors and healing factors, which are then injected into an area of injury to utilize your body’s innate capability to heal itself.
PRP Is Commonly Used to Treat:
Knee Arthritis
Hip Arthritis
Shoulder Arthritis
Rotator Cuff Injuries
Meniscus Injuries
ACL Injuries
Tennis Elbow
Golfer’s Elbow
Hamstring Injuries
and more!
