Regenerative Medicine for Joint Pain

Regenerative Medicine: How PRP Can Help Knee and Shoulder Pain

Joint pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care, especially when it affects daily activities like walking, lifting, or sleeping comfortably. At Pain Medicine Group, we specialize in regenerative medicine treatments designed to repair tissue—not just cover up symptoms. One of the most effective and natural options we offer is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, a minimally invasive treatment that uses your body’s own healing power to reduce pain and improve function.

What Is PRP?

PRP is created from a small sample of your own blood. This sample is placed in a centrifuge, where the platelet-rich portion is separated. These platelets contain growth factors that stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and support long-term healing. Because PRP comes from your own body, the risk of allergic reactions or complications is extremely low.

PRP for Knee Pain

Knee pain can come from arthritis, tendon injuries, overuse, or ligament strain. PRP targets these problems at their source using your body's own healing properties. When injected into the knee joint, PRP helps improve cartilage health, reduce inflammation, and support healing of injured tissues. Many patients report decreased pain, better mobility, and an improved ability to participate in daily activities or exercise—all while avoiding surgery!

PRP for Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain often results from arthritis but can also be a result of rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, or bursitis. PRP accelerates healing in these soft tissues by improving blood flow and stimulating repair - esentially using your body's own healing mechanisms to reduce pain. Whether pain developed from sports, repetitive use, or just plain aging, PRP offers a natural option that focuses on restoring shoulder strength and stability.

Why Choose PRP at Pain Medicine Group?

Our specialists have advanced training in regenerative medicine and use fluoroscopy-guided injections to ensure precise delivery of PRP to the targeted area. This increases the effectiveness of each treatment and supports faster, more predictable results.
