PRP TREATMENT

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy is a groundbreaking, non-surgical treatment option that relieves pain from tendon injuries, osteoarthritis, and other musculoskeletal conditions by naturally promoting long lasting healing using your own blood platelets.

Using PRP Injection Therapy to Reverse Muscular Damage

Athletes and active individuals who suffer chronic pain from tendon injuries, osteoarthritis, and other musculoskeletal conditions can now benefit from PRP Injection Therapy. PRP is a safe, non-surgical procedure which uses platelets from your own blood to repair damaged tissue, calm osteoarthritic symptoms and decrease inflammation. PRP therapy has been used as a successful pain relief and muscle repair treatment for many years, and it’s now available to you.

Achieve your health and wellness goals with the latest in powerful soft tissue applied regenerative therapies.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a procedure during which a patient’s own blood is drawn and processed to contain a much higher concentration of platelets than would normally be present. Platelets, which play a critical role in clotting, contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors, which reduce pain and promote healing. By concentrating these platelets into a preparation, which can be fine-tuned to the individual needs of each patient, your physician is able to deliver a mega dose of healing cells right where they’re needed.

 

ESWT® + PRP: How It Works

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) are both used for the treatment of soft tissue injuries.

A recent University of Georgia Study on horses Reveals that the application of ESWT to PRP  immediately following therapeutic injection of PRP into injured soft tissue structures increases the concentrations of growth factors released from the platelets by 226.4%.

the amount of growth factors than PRP alone!

However, this is only true when using Focused Shockwave as it is the only source that can deliver a medium energy density (mJ/mm2) with a high dose (mJ/pulse) in order to properly stimulate the growth factors.
