Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to accelerate healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints.

How PRP Works

A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, which contain growth factors that promote tissue healing. The concentrated PRP is then injected directly into the injured area under ultrasound guidance.

Conditions Treated with PRP

PRP therapy has shown promising results for tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff injuries, knee osteoarthritis, and chronic tendon problems. It's particularly effective for conditions that haven't responded to traditional treatments.

What to Expect

The procedure takes about 30-45 minutes. Most patients experience some soreness for a few days, followed by gradual improvement over 4-8 weeks. Multiple treatments may be recommended depending on the condition.
