PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Injections

A PRP injection with Prime Health can help reduce inflammation, provide significant pain relief and repair damaged and painful joints and sports injuries. Keep You Moving.

Overview

At Prime Health we know if you experience a painful sports injury or are living with chronic pain caused by osteoarthritis and tendinitis, seeking specialist treatment which will help alleviate the pain quickly and speed up your recovery is your priority.

PRP injections are used to help you recover from painful sports injuries, including tennis elbow, or help manage chronic pain caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis and tendinitis. This groundbreaking orthobiologic technology uses your own blood to promote and stimulate the healing process in joints, muscles, cartilage, ligaments and tendons.

The benefits of a PRP injection:

  • It can enhance and stimulate cell regrowth in the affected or injured area.
  • It’s a non-surgical approach that poses lasting pain relief.
  • It can reverse joint damage and minimise, and in some cases even eliminate, disease progression.
  • It can reduce the need for surgery.
  • At Prime Health centres, PRP injections are administered by highly experienced orthopaedic consultants.

What is a PRP injection?

PRP, Platelet-Rich-Plasma, is injected into painful joints or injured tendons, muscles or ligaments. It uses a concentration of your own platelets, which are spun from a blood sample and injected into the affected area which then stimulates and accelerates the body’s natural healing process.

At Prime Health we recognise that the management of sports injuries and musculoskeletal and joint pain can be complex, and often no single approach will be adequate on its own. Across our centres, our highly experienced multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals offer a wide range of musculoskeletal pain management treatments and solutions.
