Platelet Rich
Plasma (PRP)
Your own biology, concentrated and precisely delivered. PRP harnesses the body's healing potential exactly where it's needed most.
Regenerative Medicine
Healing from
within
Platelet Rich Plasma therapy draws a small amount of your own blood, spins it in a centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors and platelets, and reinjects the resulting solution precisely where healing is needed. The platelets signal your body to initiate tissue repair — attracting fibroblasts, stimulating collagen production, and accelerating regeneration of damaged structures.
PRP has been used in medicine for decades and has an extensive research base supporting its use for joint arthritis, tendon and ligament injuries, TMJ dysfunction, chronic musculoskeletal pain, and more recently sexual health and pelvic floor function. At Starsiak Osteopathic Clinic, PRP injections are performed by Dr. Starsiak — who combines his osteopathic structural assessment with precise injection technique. Treatment typically involves 1–3 sessions spaced about a month apart.
Pricing: PRP treatments range from $450–$1,500 depending on the site and preparation — quoted precisely at your visit, before anything is scheduled. Direct-pay · HSA welcome. PRP is planned at your evaluation visit and scheduled for its own procedure day rather than done same-day.

From the Channel
Watch Dr. Starsiak explain PRP
Well supported: Knee osteoarthritis and chronic tendinopathies (tennis elbow is the best studied) — multiple randomized trials and meta-analyses show meaningful improvement for many patients.
Promising / condition-dependent: Other tendon and joint problems, TMJ, and hair restoration — smaller trials are encouraging, but protocols vary and results are individual.
Individualized or investigational: Sexual-health and incontinence applications — discussed candidly after evaluation, with the evidence for your specific situation reviewed together before anything is scheduled.
What it doesn't replace: Rehab and strength work, weight management for arthritic knees, or surgery when structural damage truly demands it.
