Chronic joint pain can limit your mobility and impact your quality of life—but it doesn’t have to define your future. At Old Town Med Spa, our physician-led team provides advanced PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy for joint pain. This innovative, non-surgical treatment uses your body’s natural healing power to repair tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore function. Whether you’re managing arthritis, recovering from a sports injury, or struggling with overuse pain, PRP can help you move freely again—without surgery or long-term medication use.
What is PRP Therapy for Joint Pain?
PRP therapy involves concentrating platelets from your own blood, which are rich in growth and healing factors. After a simple blood draw, the plasma is separated and injected directly into the affected joint or surrounding tissue. These growth factors stimulate repair, reduce inflammation, and promote long-term recovery.
By jumpstarting the body’s own healing response, PRP offers a natural alternative to steroid injections, painkillers, or invasive procedures.

-
Reduced joint inflammation and pain

-
Minimally invasive, outpatient procedure
-
No general anesthesia or long recovery time
-
Less reliance on medications or surgical options

Longer-lasting results with continued care and activity support
PRP and PRFM are not FDA-approved treatments, meaning they have not been reviewed by the FDA for safety or effectiveness.
What to Expect from Your PRP Treatment
-
Consultation – Your provider reviews your history, imaging, and specific pain concerns.
-
Blood Draw & PRP Preparation – A small sample is collected and processed to separate the healing plasma.
-
Targeted Injection – PRP is carefully injected into the joint or tissue using advanced imaging guidance.
-

Most patients begin to notice relief within several weeks, with continued improvement over 2–3 months. Depending on your condition, multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results.
