Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy
Orthobiologics uses the body’s own resources to initiate healing. In the Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy process, the patient’s blood is drawn and separated to concentrate the healing components that already exist in the patient’s own body. Those concentrated healing components are then injected directly into the injured tendon or muscle. Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy has been used for decades to speed up healing and help people return to their activities more quickly. It is a safe and effective treatment for joint and muscle injuries and Dr. Wainer has been performing this therapy for over a decade.** Advantages of PRP Therapy: • Less side effects compared to steroid injections or surgery • Completely natural and organic • Healing continues several months after injection • Promotes accelerated healing • Minimal or no down time • Minimally invasive in-office procedure
Not EVERY patient is a good candidate for Platelet-Rich Plasma
Therapy, but people who have exhausted other treatments,
including steroid injections, may decide on PRP Therapy as an
alternative treatment to resolve their pain without surgery.

A small amount of blood is
drawn from the patient
The blood already contains
the necessary components
A centrifuge separates the
blood components
The platelet-rich plasma is
extracted
The PRP is injected directly
into the muscle or tendon
The PRP kick-starts the
healing process
The illustration above shows the steps involved in the Platelet-Rich Plasma
Therapy procedure. This regenerative procedure speeds up the healing process in
most patients, and many patients continue to see improvement up to three
months after the injection. Without the worry about side effects from medication
or the recovery time from surgery, patients who receive PRP therapy often
experience a reduction in joint or muscle discomfort and a gradual return to
their daily activites.
