PRP Therapy for Knee Pain: Regenerative Relief for Chronic Knee Pain, Without Surgery

At Wisteria Health, we offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to help patients manage persistent knee pain caused by arthritis, injuries, or inflammation. PRP uses your body’s own healing properties to reduce pain and promote tissue repair, without the need for invasive surgery or long-term medication use.

What Is PRP?

PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is a concentration of platelets and growth factors derived from your own blood. When injected into the knee joint, PRP works to reduce inflammation, stimulate tissue healing, and improve joint function. This treatment is especially well-suited for patients seeking non-surgical solutions to common knee conditions such as mild to moderate osteoarthritis, meniscus or ligament injuries, patellar tendinitis, and chronic joint inflammation or overuse-related pain.

Who Is a Candidate for PRP?

You may be a candidate for PRP if:

  • You have chronic knee pain that hasn’t responded to physical therapy or medications

  • You want to delay or avoid joint surgery

  • You’re recovering from a sports or activity-related injury

  • You have early to moderate signs of joint degeneration

The Process

  1. A small blood sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to isolate platelets

  2. The PRP solution is injected into the affected knee using ultrasound guidance

  3. Over time, the injection promotes healing and reduces pain and stiffness

  4. The procedure typically takes 30-45 minutes and is performed in our outpatient setting with minimal downtime

  5. Most patients return home within hours

Number of treatments: Most patients need 1-3 injections, spaced several weeks apart

Recovery time: Light activity the same day, with gradual improvement over 4–6 weeks

Pain relief: Some patients see results after one session, with continued improvement as inflammation decreases and tissue heals

We often pair PRP with physical medicine or rehabilitation services for comprehensive recovery support.
