What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy has been clinically proven to treat pain and encourage healing in the body. This procedure injects a high dose of platelets, concentrated from your own blood, directly into damaged or diseased tissue. These platelets have the ability to stimulate the body’s normal healing process with the ultimate goal of this technology being to restore the damage and achieve the highest level of function possible.

Disclaimer: Bone marrow cell therapy is a promising approach for a number of orthopedic conditions, but it’s not for everyone. Patients with a history of lymphoma or leukemia, certain blood diseases, and multiple medical issues are often not candidates. During your initial consultation, our medical team will review your medical history and injuries with you to help you determine if you’re an ideal candidate.

THE PROCEDURE

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is concentrated from blood and then used to speed up the body’s natural healing process of musculoskeletal problems. PRP injections are prepared by taking the patient’s own blood and concentrating platelets to stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells.  A number of disc diseases, nerve inflammation, and damage to the sacroiliac joints have seen improvement with PRP therapy.

SPINAL CONDITIONS THAT MAY BENEFIT FROM PRP THERAPY

  • Lumbar disc disease

  • Cervical disc disease
  • Degenerative Disc Disease
  • Nerve inflammation
  • Arthritic facet joints
  • Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain

The Benefits of Intradiscal PRP

Intradiscal PRP offers substantial pain relief and significant improvement in function, enabling patients to return to even higher levels of activity than were possible before their procedure. This is an effective and efficient non-invasive procedure that can prevent more aggressive spinal fusion surgery and has the potential to cure the disc instead of alleviating symptoms. Intradiscal PRP is for patients who have not achieved pain relief through more conservative approaches.
