Living with knee pain can range from uncomfortable to downright debilitating. To ease your symptoms, you don’t have to turn to invasive surgeries or expensive medications. PRP injections offer a safe and effective third option to reduce pain caused by knee injuries or osteoarthritis.

We’re proud to offer PRP injections as a state-of-the-art knee pain treatment. 

About PRP Injections

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are a cutting-edge knee pain treatment option. Your blood contains platelets with growth factors, and with the help of these shots, more growth will be stimulated to regenerate cells and repair the damaged tissue at a faster pace. 

We’ll draw blood from your arm before separating its components in a centrifuge to filter out the platelets needed to perform the procedure. Then, we’ll numb your knee and insert the fluids into your joint. You can expect some stiffness in the following days, which will subside over time. 

Why Get PRP Injections?

If you suffer from a knee injury or osteoarthritis, PRP injections will effectively soothe your pain. Moreover, it improves physical function, so you won’t feel rigid after an extended period of not using your knee. Freed from pain and stiffness, PRP injections allow you to return to a high quality of life.
