If you are experiencing chronic pain, inflammation, or slow-healing injuries, PRP therapy may be the right solution for you.
PRP may help treat conditions such as Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and ligament strains.
Regenerative medicine can help reduce inflammation and discomfort associated with arthritis and joint degeneration.
Persistent pain caused by overuse injuries, inflammation, or tissue damage may benefit from PRP therapy.
Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy, also known as Prolotherapy, is a regenerative medicine treatment that uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate tissue healing and repair. Platelets contain growth factors that help accelerate the body’s natural healing response and support regeneration of injured tissue.
PRP therapy works by enhancing the healing environment within the injured area — similar to providing nutrients and fertilizer to help tissue repair more effectively and efficiently.
Compared to more invasive procedures, PRP therapy offers patients a natural and minimally invasive healing solution.

PRP uses your own blood platelets to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
The procedure is performed in-office with little downtime and no surgery required.
Growth factors within the platelets help support faster recovery and improved tissue healing.
During treatment, a small sample of your blood is collected and processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets.
The platelet-rich solution is then carefully injected into the area of pain or injury to promote healing and tissue regeneration. In some regenerative medicine treatments, stem cells harvested from bone marrow or fat tissue may also be used to help repair cartilage, bone, and other skeletal tissues.
If you’re suffering from foot pain caused by Morton’s Neuroma or another foot and ankle condition, our New York podiatrists are here to help.
With four convenient NYC locations — Wall Street, Times Square, Grand Central, and Upper East Side — we provide advanced minimally invasive treatment options designed to help you return to healthy, active living.
Sometimes scar tissue builds up in a tendon and causes the tendon to lose its elasticity. At that point, chronic Achilles tendinitis can be treated by removing the scar tissue using a minimally invasive procedure like Tenex. This uses a wand that transmits ultrasonic energy to break through the scar tissue leaving healthy tissue behind. Downtime is minimal and return to normal activity is about a week.
Grab a resistance band (or even a stretchy t-shirt)! Place the band or shirt around the ball of your foot. Pull the two ends of the band or shirt towards you until you feel a nice stretch in the back of your leg. Hold this stretch for 30 seconds, and relax for 10 seconds. Repeat this 5-10 times for both legs!
Achilles tendonitis rarely requires surgery. However, if treatment is delayed or neglected, there could be further damage such as a tendon tear. This would require surgical repair, and although we can do this with minimally invasive techniques, it is better to prevent damage when possible. Don’t ignore your pain. See your podiatrist as soon as possible.
