Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy Kailua Kona HI

In recent years, doctors have learned that the body has the ability to heal itself. Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that can harness those abilities and amplify the natural growth factors your body uses to heal tissue.

What if the secret to pain relief was already in your body?

As a naturopathic physician, Dr. Daniel Caputo, understands that your body already has the tools to repair itself and sometimes, it just needs a boost to help facilitate the healing process. Dr. Daniel offers platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy at his office in Kailua-kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. PRP therapy uses the platelet-rich plasma in your blood to heal damaged tissues and relieve pain.

What is PRP therapy?

PRP therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that harnesses the platelet-rich plasma in your blood to heal damaged tissues. Plasma itself helps circulate red blood cells and white blood cells throughout the body, while platelets carry transforming growth factor (TGF) to stimulate new cell growth.

When injected back into the injured site, PRP therapy reduces pain and stimulates tissue repair without addictive medications or surgery. It’s most often used to treat advanced chronic pain, joint degeneration, sports injuries, and debilitating injuries.

Advantages of PRP therapy include:

  • Increasing recovery time
  • Does not require the use of anesthesia or hospital stays

  • Non-surgical so no risks of surgery

  • The patient’s own blood is used lessening any risk of transmissible diseases or allergies

  • Chronic pain

  • Chronic tendonitis

  • Golfer’s elbow / Tennis elbow
