Dealing with hand or wrist pain that just wonโt quit? You may have heard of PRP, but what is it really?
๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐๐?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. Itโs a non-surgical treatment that uses your own blood to help your body heal. We draw a small sample from your arm, spin it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, then inject that concentrated plasma directly into the injured tendon, ligament, or joint.

PRP is packed with growth factors that signal your body to heal itself. Itโs a biologic treatment, which means it works with your natural healing process.
