PRP therapy is a straightforward and easy to perform procedure, centering on injecting portions of a patient’s blood directly into injured areas. This process catalyzes the body’s instincts to repair muscle, bone and other tissue. “Most enticing”, Dr. Markarian says, is that “the technique accelerates healing which shortens rehabilitation time”.

“Harnessing the body’s own cells to heal injured areas is the best possible treatment scenario”, says Markarian. “Injecting released growth factors back into the patient’s area of injury, is like turbo-charging the body’s own healing program”, says Markarian.

Once the patient’s platelets and growth factors clot in the vial and are injected into the injury site, plasma cells perform several important functions in the body’s healing process, increasing stem cell binding properties, assisting the concentration of growth factors and promoting accelerated tissue regeneration. This activity creates a scaffold, or platform, in the injury site which allows all three activities to act in harmony with the body’s own healing signals. Since the injection is anatomically exact to the patient’s own body chemistry, there is no risk of rejection.

“This new medical breakthrough represents improved healing opportunities for patients of all ages”, Markarian said. “Now, individuals can avoid arthroscopic interventions early in these diagnostic situations and opt for progressive, in-office, non-invasive procedures”.

Shoulder Pain – Rotator Cuff Tendinosis/Tendonapathy, Triceps Tendonities
