National Spine & Pain Centers has the only physicians in the region currently trained in PRP therapy. They can determine if this advanced, non-surgical treatment is right for you. How does PRP therapy help? The body’s first response to soft tissue injury is to deliver platelet cells Packed with growth and healing factors, platelets initiate repair and attract the critical assistance of stem cells PRP therapy’s natural healing process intensifies the body’s efforts by delivering a higher concentration of platelets To create PRP therapy, a small sample of your blood is drawn (similar to a lab test sample) and placed in a centrifuge that spins the blood at high speeds, separating the platelets from the other components The concentrated platelet rich plasma (PRP) is then injected into and around the point of injury, jump-starting and significantly strengthening the body’s natural healing signal Because your own blood is used, there is no risk of a transmissible infection and a very low risk of allergic reaction. www.prplysate.com www.eternessehyd.com dr.leroy rebello.
