Targeted injections for tissue repair allow for the isolation and treatment of specific problem areas. The injections utilize your platelet-rich plasma to ensure optimal results.

PRP

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment uses the platelets in your own blood to isolate growth factors. Studies have shown that by injecting your body’s own growth factor-rich plasma into your injured tissue, you can experience pain relief and improved function from acute issues, such as neck pain, as well as more chronic ligament, muscle, and tendon injuries.

While PRP can treat sports injuries and aid the body’s recovery from significant issues, PRP is generally more suited for minor injuries.

Relieve Pain

Physical therapy is an excellent option for pain relief for those looking for a less invasive option. This modality addresses pain without needing a doctor’s office or surgical table and is especially effective in conjunction with PRP-targeted tissue treatment.

Physical therapy services sometimes include a therapist administering laser therapy with a light force therapy machine. Whether it’s knee pain, shoulder pain, or other soft tissue injuries, a light-force laser system or cold laser therapy may effectively speed tissue healing.

However, according to a study by the National Library of Medicine, PRP therapy was shown to be more effective at lowering pain levels. Helping patients experience relief more quickly and more drastically than they did with laser therapy work.

Chronic Pain Relief

PRP is commonly used for joint or tendon pain caused by an acute injury or by overuse but has also been found to aid in managing pain associated with more chronic conditions, such as osteoarthritis and chronic back pain caused by degenerative disc disease. 

Joint Pain

PRP therapy is an effective and minimally invasive way to address joint pain. PRP utilizes growth factors and proteins from your blood to relieve inflammation and improve joint performance in people of all ages, and the treatment is quick, mostly painless, and fast-acting.
