Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection Treatment for Hip Arthritis

This non-surgical procedure relieves the pain of hip arthritis with an injection of the patient's own blood platelets. The concentrated platelets promote the natural healing of damaged ligaments, cartilage and tendons.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that occurs when the cartilage and bone in a joint break down over time.
