Platelet Rich Plasma
What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment that uses the healing components of your own blood to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. PRP is especially effective in treating orthopedic conditions, sports injuries, and degenerative joint issues such as osteoarthritis.
At Zen Medicine, we offer PRP therapy as part of our integrative approach to pain management and tissue recovery -- providing safe, non-surgical solutions for long-term healing.
Conditions Treated with PRP
Joint Pain
Osteoarthritis, chronic joint pain, and degenerative joint conditions respond well to PRP therapy.
Sports Injuries
Ligament, tendon, cartilage injuries, and muscle strains benefit from accelerated healing.
Tissue Recovery
Post-surgical healing and chronic inflammation respond to PRP's regenerative growth factors.
How PRP Therapy Works
The PRP procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes about an hour:
- Blood Draw -- A small sample of your blood is taken.
- Centrifugation -- The sample is spun in a centrifuge to isolate a high concentration of platelets and plasma.
- Targeted Injection -- The PRP solution, rich in growth factors and healing proteins, is injected directly into the injured or affected area.
Over the following weeks and months, the PRP stimulates tissue regeneration, boosts collagen production, and enhances cellular repair.
