Chronic joint pain, tendon injuries, and age-related wear and tear can make even simple daily activities challenging. Many people find themselves avoiding exercise, missing out on hobbies, or feeling frustrated by limited mobility. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy offers a natural, innovative solution that harnesses your body’s own healing cells to promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and improve function in affected joints and tendons.
At the Colbert Institute of Anti-Aging, Dr. Colbert provides personalized PRP therapy plans to support long-term joint health and restore quality of life. Serving patients in Southlake, Texas, and Lake Mary, Florida. Whether you are an athlete recovering from an injury or experiencing chronic discomfort, PRP therapy can help accelerate healing and reduce pain.
PRP Therapy Process
PRP therapy uses a concentration of platelets derived from your own blood. Platelets are rich in growth factors that play a key role in tissue repair and regeneration. During the procedure:
-
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
-
The blood is processed to concentrate the platelets.
-
The platelet-rich plasma is injected directly into the injured or affected joint or tendon.
This process stimulates your body’s natural healing mechanisms, supporting tissue repair and reducing inflammation without the use of synthetic medications or surgery.
Conditions Treated with PRP Therapy
PRP therapy is versatile and can be used for a variety of conditions, including:
- Arthritis and joint degeneration: Helps reduce inflammation and improve joint function.
- Tendon injuries: Supports repair of common injuries like tennis elbow, Achilles tendinitis, or rotator cuff tears.
- Sports-related injuries: Accelerates recovery from sprains, strains, and soft tissue damage.
- Chronic pain: Offers a non-surgical option for ongoing discomfort in knees, shoulders, hips, and other joints.
Dr. Colbert works with patients to assess their specific condition and create a targeted PRP plan. This individualized approach helps optimize outcomes and supports long-term mobility and pain reduction.
Benefits of PRP Therapy
PRP therapy offers several advantages over traditional treatments:
- Natural healing: Uses your own cells to stimulate repair and reduce inflammation.
- Minimally invasive: Avoids surgery and reduces downtime.
- Targeted treatment: Injections go directly to the affected area for maximum effectiveness.
- Long-term results: Promotes tissue regeneration, not just temporary relief.
Patients often notice reduced pain, improved joint function, and enhanced range of motion within weeks of treatment, though results may vary depending on the severity of the injury or condition.
What to Expect During Treatment
PRP therapy is typically performed in-office with minimal discomfort. The procedure usually takes about 30–60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Some mild soreness or swelling may occur in the days following treatment, which is a normal part of the healing process.
The team at the Colbert Institute provides clear guidance on post-treatment care, including activity modifications, physical therapy recommendations, and follow-up evaluations to monitor progress.
Combining PRP with a Holistic Approach
For optimal results, PRP therapy is often combined with other strategies to support joint health:
- Physical therapy and exercise: Strengthening surrounding muscles can reduce stress on joints and improve mobility.
- Nutrition and supplements: Anti-inflammatory foods and certain supplements can support tissue repair.
- Lifestyle adjustments: Maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding repetitive strain can enhance long-term results.
Dr. Colbert emphasizes a comprehensive approach, integrating PRP therapy with lifestyle, movement, and nutrition guidance to help patients at both the Texas and Florida location achieve lasting benefits.
Maintaining Joint Health Long-Term
While PRP therapy can accelerate healing and relieve pain, taking proactive steps between treatments helps protect your joints and maintain mobility over time. Simple habits like maintaining a healthy weight, staying active with low-impact exercises such as swimming or cycling, and incorporating stretching or mobility routines can reduce stress on joints. Additionally, supporting joint health with anti-inflammatory foods, adequate hydration, and proper ergonomics during daily activities can enhance the benefits of PRP therapy.
The Colbert Institute care team works with patients to create personalized preventive strategies that complement regenerative treatments, ensuring lasting improvements in joint function and overall quality of life.
