Musculoskeletal Plasma Therapy utilises a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints by using the body’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems. It’s a regenerative treatment that has been in use for decades and continues to be a part of comprehensive approaches to musculoskeletal care.
Musculoskeletal plasma, is used to treat a variety of conditions, including:
Chronic tendon pain: Such as achilles tendonitis, tennis elbow, hip and shoulder tendon pain, and plantar fasciitis
Osteoarthritis: Effective for hip, knee, or small joint arthritis
Ligament, Tendon, and Muscle Injuries: PRP can promote healing in these areas
Plasma can be used for cosmetic purposes on any part of the body including face, neck, chest and limbs to treat:
- Skin quality
- Stretch marks
- Scars and acne scars
- Skin tightening
- Collagen production
- Hair Restoration
- Women's Health (‘O spot’ and ‘G spot’)
- Plasma is collected into a sterile syringe
- The skin is prepared using an antiseptic agent
- The Plasma filled syringe is then guided into the joint.
- Several joints or injured tissues can be injected in one visit
- We suggest 3 treatments 1-4 weeks apart then every few months to a year if required.
This treatment is generally not considered painful, but some discomfort may be experienced depending on the individual’s pain threshold and the area being treated. A local anesthetic or a numbing cream may be used to minimise discomfort during the procedure. It’s common to feel some soreness at the treated site for a short period after the injections, which is a normal part of the healing process.
