PRP Injections
PRP Injections for Injury Recovery and Joint Pain
PRP injections are a regenerative medicine treatment that uses your body's own healing components to support recovery from certain musculoskeletal injuries and chronic pain conditions.
At WOS Performance Clinic, Dr. Erin Wos utilizes PRP injections as part of a personalized treatment approach designed to help active individuals recover from injury, improve function, and return to the activities they love.
As a board-certified Sports Medicine Physician, Dr. Wos carefully evaluates each patient to determine whether PRP injections may be an appropriate treatment option based on their diagnosis, goals, and overall health.
What Are PRP Injections?
PRP injections, or Platelet-Rich Plasma injections, use a concentrated portion of your own blood that contains a high concentration of platelets and growth factors.
After a blood sample is collected, it is processed to isolate and concentrate the platelets. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the targeted area to support the body's natural healing response.
Because PRP injections use your own blood, the treatment is minimally invasive and designed to work with your body's existing repair mechanisms.
Conditions Commonly Treated with PRP Injections
PRP injections may be considered for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including:
Tennis elbow
Golfer's elbow
Achilles tendinopathy
Patellar tendinopathy
Rotator cuff injuries

Every patient receives a thorough evaluation to determine whether PRP injections are appropriate for their specific condition.
Precision Matters
Successful treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis.
At WOS Performance Clinic, PRP injections are performed by a Sports Medicine Physician with expertise in musculoskeletal medicine and ultrasound-guided procedures. Diagnostic ultrasound is used to evaluate injured tissues and guide treatment with precision.
This targeted approach helps ensure that treatment is directed exactly where it is needed.
PRP Injections as Part of a Comprehensive Recovery Plan
While PRP injections can be a valuable treatment option for certain conditions, they are often most effective when combined with a broader recovery strategy.
Depending on your needs, treatment may also include:
Diagnostic ultrasound to guide treatment decisions
A personalized recovery roadmap, including home-based exercise guidance
Movement and biomechanical assessment
Coordination with trusted rehab and physical therapy providers when indicated
Activity modification
Injury prevention strategies
Performance optimization
Our goal is not simply to reduce pain, but to help you recover fully and return to the activities that matter most.
