PRP Treatment – Biological Therapy for Pain Relief and Improved Function

Do you suffer from pain in your joints, tendons, or muscles that hasn’t improved with conventional treatment?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a cutting-edge biological method that utilizes your body’s own growth factors to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and restore function. At Elit Ortopedi in Stockholm, all PRP injections are performed by experienced orthopedic specialists with millimeter precision using advanced ultrasound guidance.

Your Journey Begins with a Specialist Assessment

Before any treatment starts, you will always undergo a thorough orthopedic examination. We ensure that PRP is the right method for your specific condition – or if another intervention would yield better results.

What Can PRP Treatment Help With?

PRP is an effective and well-documented method for both chronic conditions and acute sports injuries. We primarily treat:

  • Osteoarthritis: Excellent results, particularly for knee and hip osteoarthritis.
  • Shoulder Issues: Rotator cuff tears or impingement syndrome.
  • Elbow Problems: Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow.
  • Tendon Injuries: Achilles tendinitis and jumper’s knee (patellar tendonitis).
  • Sports Injuries: Muscle strains and ligament injuries.

This treatment is a powerful alternative for those looking to avoid surgery or reduce the use of repeated cortisone injections.

How Does PRP Therapy Work?

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. The process is simple, safe, and entirely biological:

  1. Blood Sample: We draw a small amount of blood from your arm, just like a standard blood test.
  2. Centrifugation: The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets and vital growth factors.
  3. Injection: The highly concentrated plasma is injected directly into the injured area. We use ultrasound guidance to ensure the solution is delivered exactly where it will provide the most benefit.
  4. The Result: The body’s natural healing process is accelerated, inflammation subsides, and pain is relieved. Recovery time after the procedure is typically very short.
