Orthobiologics
Defined as the development of bone and soft-tissue replacement materials, by biological and biochemical means, to enhance musculoskeletal healing and mitigate common complications. This emerging branch of medical science gives healthcare providers several options for decreasing patients’ symptoms and while substantially decreasing recovery time. It can relieve joint pain without surgery. A breakthrough method is one form of orthobiologics which can promote the body’s own musculoskeletal healing tendencies. This procedure has massive potential for alleviating symptoms associated with plantar fasciitis, knee and shoulder disorders, ligament sprains and other injuries and conditions.
What is Platelet Rich Plasma?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a solution that is made by drawing and separating a patient’s own blood. Blood is made of plasma, which is primarily a liquid, as well as white blood cells, and platelets. PRP is made by a process called centrifugation. The platelets are separated from the other blood cells and rejoined with plasma. This process yields a highly concentrated solution.
Platelets are most known for their ability to assist in clotting and their large composition of growth factors. These growth factors are very important in healing injuries. Therefore, this concentrated solution is able to promote tissue healing in an injured area by being injected back into the patient’s own body.
