PRP Injections

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to deliver growth factors that promote tissue healing. PRP is effective for chronic tendon injuries, mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis, and muscle injuries in athletes. Most patients need 1-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

Cost: $500-$2,000/session (cash pay) | Sessions: 1-3 | Best for: Tendon injuries, mild OA
