Platelet Rich Plasma Injections

One of the most exciting new treatments in orthopedics and sports medicine involves making the most of the body’s natural healing processes. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment is becoming a more popular option for accelerating the body’s healing process. Platelet-rich plasma injections have been getting a lot of attention in the news media.  College and professional athletes use PRP injections to accelerate healing.

This cutting-edge treatment is now available to everyone. Nowadays, it is being used to treat many orthopedic conditions, including chronic tendonitis and muscle strains.

PRP injections may be effective for a period of 6-9 months. PRP injections treat conditions such as:

• Tendonitis
• Achilles Tendonitis
• Sprains
• Bursitis
• Pulled Hamstrings
• Jumper’s Knee
