What is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy for Sports Injuries?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge treatment designed to accelerate the healing of sports injuries using your body’s own platelets. This therapy is commonly used to treat muscle strains, tendon injuries, and joint pain by promoting natural tissue repair.
During the process, a small amount of blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and plasma, resulting in a high concentration of growth factors. These growth factors are then injected into the injured area, stimulating cellular repair and enhancing recovery.
