Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for musculoskeletal injuries

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), is a non surgical treatment option, where a patient’s own blood is used to stimulate healing and tissue regeneration for musculoskeletal injuries.

How Do PRP Injections Work for Injury Recovery & Healing?

A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient’s arm and spun, to separate the plasma. Then this plasma rich in platelets is injected under Ultrasound Guidance, into the injured site. 

PRP enhances your body healing potential, regeneration of tissue, slowing down osteoarthritis and ultimately decreasing pain.
