PRP therapy is an orthobiologic that uses your platelets to support healing. Platelets are tiny cells found in your blood best known for their ability to stop cuts from bleeding. These tiny cells also contain growth factors and specialized proteins that initiate the repair process.
PRP therapy is made from a sample of your blood and contains a high concentration of platelets. The team at Advanced Spine and Pain Clinics injects the PRP directly into the injured or damaged tissue.
Prolotherapy is an injection that contains a sterile solution that aims to strengthen weakened or injured tissue by stimulating your body’s repair response. The team uses prolotherapy to help strengthen connective tissue and form new collagen.
The team recommends a series of at least eight injections to get the best outcome.
