Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative, non-surgical approach to pain management, used in the treatment of most sports injuries and other musculoskeletal conditions. It is a type of regenerative medicine that provides fast, effective, and long-lasting relief from pain and discomfort.
At Advanced Sports & Spine, we offer stem cell and PRP therapy in Huntersville, Charlotte, NC, and Fort Mill, SC, for joint, spine, and tendon pain, lower back pain, herniated discs, sciatica, neck pain, sports injuries, and other musculoskeletal conditions. These procedures may help repair damaged tissues and optimize healing to improve mobility and functionality.
PRP therapy uses a concentrated portion of your own blood, which is rich in platelets and growth factors. When injected, these growth factors jumpstart the healing process by attracting your body’s natural reparative cells to the injured area. This accelerates tissue repair and helps to reduce pain.
How PRP Therapy Works, Step By Step
Every PRP treatment at Advanced Sports & Spine follows the same four stages, from your first exam through to the injection itself.
-
1
Consultation and exam
Our physicians examine the area of complaint, review your history and diagnostic findings, and confirm whether PRP is the right option for you.
-
2
A small blood draw
A sample of your own blood is drawn in the office, the same way it would be for routine bloodwork.
-
3
Concentrated with the Angelⓒ System
The sample is processed using 3-sensor technology to produce a precise concentration of platelets and growth factors, adjusted to your needs.
-
4
Injected where it hurts
The concentrated PRP is injected into the affected joint, tendon, or soft tissue as an outpatient treatment in our office.
Angel® System 3-sensor technology
Our Physicians Use The Angel® System Machine
Our board-certified physicians in Charlotte, NC, use the Angel® System to create the precise concentration of PRP needed for your pain management treatment. This state-of-the-art device features 3-sensor technology (3ST) that allows us to precisely customize the concentration of platelets and adjust the leukocyte (white blood cell) content to suit each patient’s needs.

The PRP and stem cells come from the patients themselves. The equipment Advanced Sports & Spine uses to process the PRP and stem cells is FDA cleared for that use.
How Much Is The Cost?

Is A PRP Injection Covered By Insurance?
Unfortunately, no insurance companies in the country cover PRP, so the treatments are self-pay.
