​
What Is PRP Therapy?
​
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy is a regenerative medical treatment that uses a small sample of your own blood to stimulate tissue repair and healing. After the sample is drawn, it is processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelets — the cells responsible for healing and tissue growth. These concentrated platelets are then injected into injured or inflamed areas, triggering the body’s natural repair process. If you’re looking for a natural alternative to surgery or long-term medication, PRP may be the perfect option for you.

​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The PRP Preparation Process​
​
-
Blood Draw: A small sample of your blood (less than a standard lab draw) is collected in a sterile tube.
-
First Spin (Soft Spin): The centrifuge separates platelets and plasma from red and white blood cells.
-
Second Spin (Hard Spin): The plasma is spun again, concentrating platelets into a rich layer.
-
Preparation: The platelet-rich layer is isolated and gently mixed to form a highly potent PRP solution.
-
Injection: The PRP is injected into the target area (such as a joint, tendon, or ligament) under sterile conditions.
-
Healing Phase: The platelets release natural growth factors, stimulating repair, reducing inflammation, and accelerating recovery.
