Platelet-rich plasma therapy

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing. Blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which contains a high concentration of platelets. These platelets release growth factors that encourage tissue repair and reduce inflammation. The concentrated PRP is then injected into the affected area, such as a joint or tendon, to accelerate healing. PRP therapy is commonly used for musculoskeletal injuries, sports injuries, and some chronic conditions, offering an innovative, minimally invasive option to support recovery.
