If you’ve ever struggled with joint pain, tendon injuries, or lingering discomfort from sports or everyday activities, you know how limiting it can be. Even mild aches can affect your mobility, reduce your quality of life, and make routine activities feel challenging. Fortunately, regenerative medicine offers new options that harness your body’s natural healing abilities to help you recover more efficiently.
What is PRP Therapy?
Platelet rich plasma (PRP Therapy) is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a concentrated sample of your own platelets to promote healing in injured joints, tendons, and ligaments. At the Colbert Institute of Anti-Aging, Dr. Colbert offers personalized PRP therapy in Lake Mary, Florida, and Southlake, Texas, helping patients reduce pain, restore function, and regain mobility. Unlike traditional treatments that only mask symptoms, PRP targets the source of the injury, often resulting in faster recovery and longer-lasting relief.
PRP Therapy vs. Traditional Treatments
PRP targets the root of joint and tendon injuries, unlike treatments that only mask symptoms. Compared with corticosteroids, surgery, or standard physical therapy, PRP offers:
- Fewer side effects – Uses your own blood, reducing risks.
- Faster recovery – Minimally invasive, often allowing return to activities within days.
- Long-term healing – Stimulates tissue repair for lasting improvement.
PRP provides a natural, effective alternative for faster, sustained relief with minimal downtime.
Common Conditions Treated with PRP
PRP therapy can support healing for a wide range of joint and sports-related injuries, offering a natural, regenerative alternative to traditional treatments. Common conditions include:
Tendon injuries – Such as tendinitis, tennis elbow, or Achilles tendon problems, where inflammation and micro-tears slow recovery.Dr. Colbert evaluates each patient individually to determine whether PRP therapy is appropriate and develops a personalized treatment plan based on the severity of the injury, overall health, and activity goals. This tailored approach ensures that patients receive the most effective care to restore function and return to their favorite activities safely.
How PRP Therapy Works
PRP therapy is a safe, minimally invasive treatment that uses your own blood to promote healing. A small blood sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets and growth factors, which are then injected directly into the injured tissue. These growth factors stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and can accelerate recovery. Most patients tolerate the procedure well, with minimal risk of complications, and can often resume normal activities within a few days.
Why Choose PRP Therapy and Who Benefits Most
PRP therapy offers a natural, minimally invasive alternative to conventional treatments by targeting the root of joint and tendon injuries. It can accelerate healing, reduce pain, and restore function while often providing long-term relief for chronic conditions. Recovery is typically faster than surgical interventions, allowing patients to return to daily activities sooner.
PRP therapy can benefit a wide range of patients, including:
- Weekend warriors – Address lingering sports injuries and overuse strains.
- Professional athletes – Promote faster recovery and maintain peak performance.
- Adults with age-related joint degeneration – Reduce stiffness and improve mobility.
- Patients with chronic injuries – Prevent worsening of conditions and maintain long-term function.
