PRP Therapy in Peoria, AZ

At AZ Orthopedic, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy as a safe, natural option to help manage pain and promote healing. PRP therapy uses your own blood’s platelets to support the repair of injured tissues and reduce inflammation. Designed to encourage your body’s natural healing process, this minimally invasive procedure can effectively treat joint pain, tendon injuries, and arthritis.

PRP therapy may be the solution you’ve been looking for if you’re struggling with chronic pain or an injury that just won’t heal. Contact AZ Orthopedic today to schedule a consultation and find out if PRP is right for you.

There are several benefits to PRP therapy for patients seeking relief and improved mobility. Here are five key advantages:

• Natural Healing Support
  As PRP uses your own blood, you are less likely to have allergic reactions or complications.

• Pain Reduction
  It can help decrease inflammation and ease pain in joints and soft tissues.

• Improved Function
  Many patients notice better movement and strength after treatment.

• Minimally Invasive
  The procedure involves only a simple injection, avoiding surgery and lengthy recovery.

• Versatile Treatment
  PRP can be used for various conditions including arthritis, tendonitis, and sports injuries.

PRP therapy at AZ Orthopedic follows a straightforward process designed with patient comfort and safety in mind:

• A small sample of your blood is drawn.
• After the blood is centrifuged, platelet-rich plasma is separated from the blood plasma.
• The PRP is injected into the targeted area of injury or pain.
• Usually, the entire process is completed in less than an hour.
• There is usually no delay in returning to daily activities after treatment.

PRP therapy is a good option for many people dealing with pain or injury. Ideal candidates typically:

• Have chronic joint or tendon pain not relieved by other treatments.
• Looking for a non-surgical treatment option for their symptoms.
• Want to improve healing after injuries like sprains or strains.
• Have mild to moderate arthritis symptoms.
• Are in overall good health without active infections or blood disorders.
