One of the most exciting new treatment approaches available for joint pain, muscle pain and tendon or ligament injury is the use of the patients own platelet rich plasma - extracted in a blood sample and then injected back into their own painful area.
Platelets contain very high numbers of growth factors and natural anti inflammatory chemicals or hormones - all of which are vital in the repair and regeneration process.
The PRP technique involves taking a small blood sample from the patient in a special syringe, placing the syringe in a centrifuge and then spinning until red cells and white cells separate away from the platelets and the plasma.
The platelet and plasma mixture is then injected back into the area of an inflamed muscle or an inflamed tendon - often producing dramatic and quick benefits.
