Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) consists of concentrated platelets and growth factors that promote healing and regeneration of injured tissues. PRP is derived from your own body and is 100% natural. PRP injections are an increasingly popular alternative to surgery and addictive medications. A small sample of blood is drawn into a specialized collection system and then centrifuged at high speeds to isolate the growth factors and platelets.  These therapies are a safe, nonsurgical treatment option for most chronic pain conditions. 

Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) uses electrical signals to interrupt the perception of pain traveling from the painful area to the brain. SCS systems, in place of pain, patients feel a soothing, massage-like sensation called "paresthesia." . SCS may provide long-lasting pain relief and can be used with other therapies.
