Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
Life takes a toll—physically and mentally. Whether from daily stress, injury, or wear and tear over time, your body holds the strain in joints, tissues, and tendons that don’t bounce back like they used to.
PRP therapy harnesses your body’s own healing power to repair damaged tissue at the source. Using concentrated platelets drawn from your own blood, this regenerative treatment jumpstarts recovery, reduces pain, and restores healthy movement—naturally and effectively.
Let your body heal from the inside out with advanced PRP therapy at Deep Relief.
What is Platelet - rich Plasma (PRP)?
PRP therapy is a regenerative treatment that focuses on repairing the deeper layers of tissue at the cellular level. It targets damage caused by overuse, inflammation, or injury—restoring strength where your body needs it most.
Unlike surface-level solutions, PRP works from within, using your body’s own concentrated platelets to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and regenerate healthy tissue. The result? Long-term relief from pain and improved function that lasts.
Benefits of Deep Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP)
This type of medical service offers natural, targeted healing by using your body’s own platelets to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and restore function—without surgery or long-term medications.:
- Stimulates tissue regeneration and healing at the cellular level
- Reduces inflammation and chronic pain
- Accelerates recovery from injuries, including ligament, tendon, and muscle damage
- Enhances collagen production for stronger, more resilient tissues
- Improves joint function and mobility
- Helps slow progression of degenerative joint conditions like osteoarthritis

These benefits also support better mental health. Chronic pain and physical limitations can take a toll emotionally—so when your body starts to heal, your mind follows.
PRP therapy reduces pain and restores function, helping you feel stronger, more capable, and less burdened by daily discomfort. By addressing the root of physical issues, PRP promotes not only recovery—but also a renewed sense of balance and wellbeing.
Is PRP Massage Right For You?
PRP therapy is one of the most effective regenerative treatments for addressing chronic joint pain, soft tissue injuries, and lingering inflammation. Whether your discomfort stems from overuse, aging, or a past injury that never fully healed, PRP targets the root cause by stimulating your body’s natural healing process. Many clinics now offer PRP as a non-surgical option for those seeking long-term relief and tissue repair.
If you’re dealing with persistent pain, limited mobility, or slow recovery from an injury, PRP therapy could be the solution. It’s ideal for individuals looking to avoid steroids or surgery and prefer a natural, minimally invasive approach that uses their own biology to heal damaged tissue.
While PRP is generally safe, it may not be recommended for individuals with certain blood disorders, active infections, or severe platelet dysfunction. A consultation with a medical provider is the best way to determine if you’re a good candidate. At Deep Relief, our team will review your health history and goals to tailor a treatment plan that supports your recovery.

- PRP Treatment FAQ -
Do I need PRP therapy?
You may be a good candidate for PRP therapy if you’re dealing with chronic joint pain, tendon or ligament injuries that aren’t healing, or inflammation that keeps returning. Common signs include stiffness, swelling, limited mobility, or pain that persists despite rest, physical therapy, or standard injections.
PRP is also ideal for those seeking alternatives to steroid shots or surgery, as well as individuals with slow post-surgical recovery or recurring sports injuries. If you’ve tried other treatments without success, PRP may help your body repair from within.
Does PRP hurt?
PRP therapy is generally well-tolerated and not considered painful for most people. The procedure involves a simple blood draw, followed by an injection of your own platelet-rich plasma into the targeted area. Some patients describe the injection as mildly uncomfortable, similar to a flu shot or standard blood work.
You might experience soreness or tenderness at the injection site for a day or two, especially if it’s in a joint or deeper tissue, but this is usually short-lived.
At Deep Relief, we can apply a topical numbing agent or use local anesthetic to minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth, manageable experience.
How does PRP help with pain?
PRP relieves pain by addressing its root cause—damaged or inflamed tissue. It works by delivering a concentrated dose of your body’s own healing platelets directly to the site of injury or degeneration.
These platelets contain growth factors that promote new cell growth, reduce inflammation, and accelerate tissue repair. Unlike painkillers, which only mask symptoms, PRP stimulates actual healing, leading to longer-lasting relief.
Over time, as inflammation decreases and healthy tissue regenerates, pain naturally subsides. At Deep Relief, we use PRP to help patients move beyond temporary fixes and experience real, lasting improvement.
How often do I need PRP treatments?
The effects of PRP therapy can last anywhere from six months to over a year, depending on the condition being treated, your overall health, and how your body responds.
Some patients experience long-lasting relief after just one session, while others benefit more from a series of two or three treatments spaced out over several weeks.
For chronic conditions like arthritis or recurring tendon injuries, maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months may be recommended.
The regenerative benefits of PRP often grow over time as your tissues continue to repair and strengthen.
Is PRP Good for You?
PRP therapy can be an excellent option for many people, especially those dealing with chronic pain, slow-healing injuries, or inflammation that hasn’t responded well to traditional treatments.
Because PRP uses your own blood—concentrated with healing platelets—it’s a natural, minimally invasive approach that supports your body’s ability to repair itself. Unlike steroids or painkillers, which only mask symptoms, PRP targets the root cause by promoting actual tissue regeneration.
For the right candidates, PRP can lead to improved mobility, reduced pain, and faster recovery without the risks of surgery or long-term medication use.
However, it may not be appropriate for everyone. People with certain blood disorders, active infections, or severely advanced joint degeneration may not be ideal candidates.
A consultation with a qualified provider, like the team at Deep Relief, can help determine whether PRP is a good fit for your specific health goals and condition.
Will my insurance cover PRP?
In most cases, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is not covered by insurance.
Some private insurance companies may consider coverage on a case-by-case basis, especially when PRP therapy is deemed medically necessary and other conventional treatments have failed. In such instances, obtaining a letter of medical necessity from your healthcare provider and undergoing a pre-authorization process with your insurer may improve the chances of coverage .
Is PRP Safe After Injury?
Yes, PRP therapy is often used specifically to treat current injuries and is considered very safe because it uses your own blood.
It’s commonly used for soft tissue injuries like tendon strains, ligament tears, and muscle damage, and it can even support healing after surgery. PRP reduces inflammation and speeds up tissue repair without introducing foreign substances.
However, there are some exceptions—such as active infections, blood disorders, or certain medications—where extra caution is needed. At Deep Relief, we review your medical history and condition carefully to make sure PRP is both safe and effective for you.
