PRP therapy

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy is a regenerative medicine treatment that uses the body’s natural healing potential to treat various damaged tissues in the body. Platelets are the blood cells that allow the blood to clot. In addition, platelets also help to initiate a healing response at the injury site. Platelets release numerous growth factors and other proteins which assist with the healing process.

This healing quality of platelets is the basis for PRP therapy. The patient’s own blood is used to extract platelets and concentrated healing factors, as platelet-rich plasma, or PRP. This PRP is injected directly into the site of an injury to stimulate a powerful healing response. By enhancing the body’s natural healing capacity, PRP injections may lead to a rapid, efficient, and more thorough restoration of the tissue to a healthy state.

PRP injections have been used successfully in the following conditions –

• Patellar tendonitis/tendinosis

• Knee osteoarthritis

• Hip osteoarthritis

• Rotator Cuff tendonitis, tendonopathy or partial tears

• Golfers and Tennis elbow

• Achilles tendonitis or partial tears, and more
