PRP Therapy (Platelet Rich Plasma)

PRP Therapy: Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment
PRP uses the patient’s own growth factors obtained by separating patients blood components and removing the RBC’s through the process of double centrifusion. The healing properties of PRP therapy are attributed to the increased concentration of growth factors and secretory proteins that enhance the healing process on a cellular level. PRP therapy has gained recent popularity because many professional athletes find that the benefits of this therapy allows them to return to the playing field with rapid healing of their condition.
Common Musculoskeletal conditions treated with PRP:
- Shoulder Disorders (Arthritis, Bursitis and Rotator Cuff Repairs)
- Tendonitis such as Tennis Elbow
- Achilles tendon problems
- Heel spur syndrome
- Osteoarthritis of the knee including anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries
- Hip arthritis
- Knee pain
- Arthritic conditions
- Low back pain
- Pelvic pain and instability
- Back and neck injuries
- Ankle sprains
- Tendonitis
- Ligament sprains
Because the goal of PRP therapy is to resolve pain through healing, it could prove to have lasting results. Initial improvement may be seen within a few weeks, gradually increasing as the healing progresses. Research studies and clinical practice have shown PRP therapy to be very effective at relieving pain and returning patients to their normal lives.

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy and who is it for?
Hormone replacement therapy is a medical treatment used to treat aging-related diseases, such as osteoporosis, menopause in women and andropause in men.
HRT can be beneficial for men when testosterone starts to lower, causing andropause. When receiving HRT, men can lose weight, gain muscle, improve energy and prevent age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis*.
For women, Hormone Replacement Therapy should be initiated when a woman starts seeing signs of menopause. HRT can help women with the symptoms of insomnia, depression, irritability, low energy levels and weight gain.*.
