Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy and ACL Injuries

PRP Therapy Offers the Possibility of Rapid Recovery From ACL Pain

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) is giving new hope to anyone with a painful anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. ACL tears are extremely common and account for nearly half of all reported knee ligament injuries. In America, between 100,000 and 200,000 people every year present with ACL ruptures, with sports being a major factor.

The anterior cruciate ligament is a key ligament that essentially stabilizes the knee joint but is susceptible to tearing injuries.  Sufferers frequently resort to surgical intervention to restore as much function as possible.  However, the full, pre-injury function is often not possible with conventional treatment.

Ligament injuries used to be hard to successfully treat, and post-surgical failure rates have been estimated to be as high as 90%.  Now, PRP treatments can provide an alternative, more hopeful solution.

Are you suffering from anterior cruciate ligament pain?  Would you prefer a natural solution rather than invasive surgery?  Contact NuLife Institute now at (305) 400-0005 for a FREE consultation.

How does PRP Therapy work? The process is science and medicine at its most compelling. A small quantity of the patient’s own blood cells is taken and placed into a centrifuge to separate the blood platelets from the other elements. The platelets contain essential growth factors – natural components that aid healing.

Once isolated, the concentrated platelets are injected into the injury site, where the regenerative properties they contain stimulate the body’s own curative response.

Pain-Free and Rapid Post-Treatment Improvement

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy is a low-intervention, almost pain-free remedy. Many patients experience improvement in their symptoms after only one or two treatments.  What’s more, PRP fits into a busy lifestyle – unlike major knee surgery – with the majority of treatments administered in less time than it takes to eat lunch.

It’s also the preferred treatment of injured professional sportspeople.  With PRP therapy, professional athletes often experience an accelerated healing process and the possibility of returning to competing at a high level.
