Regenerative (Plasma) Joint Injections for Pain Relief
Chronic joint pain can limit movement, disrupt daily life, and prevent you from staying active. Our regenerative joint injection treatments use your body’s own healing components of Plasma to support tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function naturally.
These treatments are designed for patients seeking a non-surgical option for joint discomfort and sports-related injuries.
What Are Regenerative Joint Injections?
________________________________________
Regenerative joint injections are minimally invasive treatments that use biologically derived components from your own blood to support healing inside the joint. These injections aim to:
-
Reduce inflammation
-
Support tissue regeneration
-
Improve joint lubrication and mobility
-
Promote natural recovery
They are commonly used in sports medicine and musculoskeletal care to help patients return to activity with less pain and improved function.

Is Regenerative medicine and treatment with Plasma backed by science?
Although regenerative medicine is a relatively new field, there is now a growing body of high-quality evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in reducing pain and improving function in patients with arthritis and tendon injuries. Several recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses have reported positive clinical outcomes. Key examples include the following:
-
Nadeau-Vallée M. (2025) – PRP in chronic tendinopathy
Systematic review & meta-analysis evaluating PRP injections for chronic tendinopathy patients who failed conservative treatment, showing pain reduction.
-
Bensa A et al. (2025) – PRP vs corticosteroids for knee osteoarthritis
Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials showing PRP injections may provide symptom relief and functional improvement compared to corticosteroids.
-
Elnewishy A. (2024) – PRP vs corticosteroids for chronic tendinopathies
Meta-analysis comparing PRP to steroids for chronic tendinopathy pain/function; provides pooled effect sizes and comparison metrics.

-
Want to avoid surgery
-
Are active or athletic
