Treating Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist and Hand Pain
With Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy and Prolotherapy
Serving the Phoenix Area from Scottsdale, Arizona

Our doctors apply regenerative therapies such as prolotherapy or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which can often help heal and restore damaged joints.

Overuse, injuries, seemingly benign sports like golf and tennis, and the cumulative effects of aging can cause pain, stiffness and swelling, and severely limit the range of motion, muscle strength and stability of your shoulder, elbow, hand or wrist.

Shoulder

The shoulder has an extremely wide range of motion. It is often injured by trauma that tears the rotator cuff or labrum or causes tendonitis or arthritis. Our doctors offer effective PRP therapy and prolotherapy treatment plans to stabilize your joint capsules, healing the tendons and cartilage in your shoulders.
