PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Joint Therapy is a cutting-edge treatment designed to promote healing, reduce pain, and restore function in damaged joints.

What is PRP Joint Therapy?
PRP Joint Therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a patient’s own blood, processed to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors that promote healing. This concentrated plasma is then injected into the affected joint to stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. The PRP therapy encourages the natural healing process by accelerating the regeneration of damaged cartilage, ligaments, and tendons within the joint, leading to improved mobility and reduced pain.
How PRP Joint Therapy Works
The process begins by drawing a small sample of your blood, which is then placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the rest of the blood components. The resulting platelet-rich plasma is injected directly into the damaged joint, where it triggers the body’s natural healing response. The growth factors in the PRP help to promote tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function. Most patients experience noticeable improvements in mobility and pain reduction within a few weeks after the procedure.
