What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?

PRP (also known as platelet-rich plasma) treatments are a form of regenerative medicine that utilise healing factors in our own blood to help the body repair itself through local injections into the injured tissues.

The PRP procedure is similar to prolotherapy injections but also involves an initial blood draw followed by spinning the blood and concentrating the patient’s own plasma and platelets – the healing portion of our blood.

PRP has received considerable interest due to it being a simple, safe, and minimally invasive method that harnesses the healing power of growth factors.

I'd tried physio for the first time at another practice a few months ago and left very underwhelmed. A friend peer-pressured me into giving it another go with their practitioner, Mary Wong Colebrook.. what a difference. Took the time to explain what was going on with my back, laid out a plan as to how we're going to remedy it, used every minute of my appointment. Highly recommended.read more

Prior to today (1 year ago) I had a number of visits with Ian regarding a hip injury and found him to be very thorough in treating the injury and taking the time to explain how the treatments and exercises were going to help me.Today was my first visit for another injury and Ian was great in describing the possible reasons for my problem and his thoroughness in his first treatment and also his concern and direction in telling me to contact my doctor to order up some exams to make sure some of his concerns were looked into further.Thanks Ianread more
