Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) & OZone Therapy

Unlock the healing power of your own body!

What is PRP therapy?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is utilized by drawing whole blood and centrifuging it to separate the red blood cells from the plasma. The PRP portion is then extracted and injected into the affected tissues.

The injection solution of autologous plasma with higher platelets, chondrocytes, exosomes, and cytokines is intended to help promote healing and reduce inflammation of the region and is indicated for the treatment of symptoms associated with inflammatory, exudative, and degenerative processes due to the subacute and/or chronic phase of healing within herniated discs.

What is autologous?
Cells are produced within the individual. This is why the procedure is so safe because your own plasma (with all its healing properties) is being used to help your body ignite the healing process.

PRP Effectiveness
Research is showing signs of reactivation of dormant/damaged cells. PRP is a great alternative to addictive pain medications, steroids (cortisone), hyaluronic acid injections, and spine surgeries. PRP is non-invasive, so you don’t need to worry about a long recovery time. Most patients can return to normal activities the following day.

Why platelets?
Platelets are naturally produced by the human body and possess healing properties that help your body repair itself. PRP contains a high concentration of platelets and other growth factors that promote regeneration and can accelerate the repair of damaged discs. This is derived from the patient’s own blood and is 100% natural. PRP acts as an agent that works to heal, rather than masking the symptoms of pain.

WHAT IS OZONE THERAPY?

While most of us associate ozone with the protective layer in the Earth’s stratosphere, this remarkable gas has found a groundbreaking application in medicine—Ozone Therapy. This innovative approach aims to enhance the body’s oxygen utilization and activate the immune system, unlocking a new realm of health benefits.

Dating back 150 years, Ozone Therapy has a rich history in disinfection and disease treatment. Even during the First World War, its application to wounds demonstrated not only its powerful disinfectant properties but also its ability to improve blood flow and induce anti-inflammatory effects.

Advancements in technology have propelled Ozone Therapy beyond its gaseous state, making it injectable. This breakthrough method proves highly effective, especially in treating joint pain caused by arthritis. Furthermore, it has shown remarkable results in promoting healing and reducing scar tissue resulting from surgery or injury.

Ozone benefits
A solution indicated for the treatment of symptoms associated with inflammatory and degenerative processes due to acute trauma, postoperative pain, repetitive or chronic overuse spine injuries and arthritic conditions. It provides the following benefits:

  • Long-term degenerative joint relief
  • Improves tissue oxygenation
  • Pain reliever
  • Increased metabolism
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Cellular rejuvenator
  • Improves circulation
  • Germicide (Bacteria, viruses, fungi)
  • Scar tissue softening and pain relief

One of the safest substances to inject into problem areas because of its antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. We typically use ozone as an additive to our PRP injections because of the safety factors that ozone possesses.
