Regenerative PRP Care You Can Trust
Chronic joint or tendon pain doesn’t have to determine your daily comfort. At MI Express Primary & Urgent Care, our team provides PRP therapy designed to support long-term healing by using your own concentrated platelets.
For individuals researching alternatives like plasma injection for knee or modern treatments such as plasma rich protein injections knee, PRP offers a more targeted, biologic approach backed by ultrasound-guided accuracy.
What Is PRP Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a safe, regenerative treatment that leverages your body’s natural healing power. By concentrating your platelets and injecting them into injured joints or tendons, PRP:
- Reduces inflammation and pain
- Promotes tissue repair and regeneration
- Improves joint function and mobility
- Offers a non-surgical alternative for musculoskeletal injuries
Ultrasound guidance ensures PRP joint injections are delivered precisely for the best results.
Conditions PRP Therapy Can Help
Our PRP injections are effective for a variety of musculoskeletal issues, including:
- Knees: Arthritis, tendon injuries
- Shoulders: Rotator cuff injuries, arthritis
- Elbows: Tendonitis, repetitive strain injuries
- Other MSK Issues: Minor joint injuries, plantar fascia pain
Note: PRP therapy is not offered for back or spinal injuries.
Is PRP Therapy Right for You?
PRP may be a good option if you:
- Have persistent joint or tendon pain not fully relieved by conservative care
- Are seeking regenerative, non-surgical solutions
- Are ready to schedule and pay in advance for therapy
Important: Bring all imaging reports (X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound) for review to ensure PRP is appropriate.
How PRP Therapy Works
- Blood Collection: A small sample is drawn from your arm.
- Platelet Concentration: The blood is processed to concentrate healing platelets.
- Targeted Injection: Concentrated platelets are injected into the affected joint or tendon using ultrasound guidance.
- Healing & Recovery: PRP stimulates tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and gradually restores function.
Treatment Protocol: Most patients benefit from 3–5 injections spaced 4 weeks apart for optimal results.
