PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy)

PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy)

PRP therapy is a modern treatment used to support tissue healing and reduce pain in joints and tendons. The goal of treatment is to stimulate the body’s natural healing process and improve joint function.

What is PRP therapy? PRP therapy involves using a sample of the patient’s own blood. The blood is processed to isolate plasma that contains a high concentration of platelets.

Platelets contain growth factors that help stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
