Northwest Wellness has always believed the body has an incredible capacity to heal, especially when given the right support.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy as a new service for patients who need something more when conservative care alone isn’t enough.
What is PRP?
PRP uses a small sample of your own blood, carefully processed to concentrate platelets, cells rich in growth factors and signaling molecules that help coordinate tissue repair. This platelet-rich plasma is then precisely applied to areas such as joints or tendons to support the body’s natural healing response.
How PRP aligns with our philosophy:
PRP doesn’t replace chiropractic care, massage therapy, or naturopathic medicine, it complements them.
It’s often considered when pain or dysfunction persists despite good movement, soft-tissue work, rehab, and lifestyle support.
Common areas we evaluate for PRP include:
• Knee osteoarthritis
• Shoulder pain or degeneration
• Tendinopathies and chronic soft-tissue injuries
When appropriate, PRP may be performed with ultrasound guidance to support accuracy and safety.
What to know:
• PRP is autologous (from your own body)
• Results are gradual, not instant
• It’s not a quick fix, but a biologically thoughtful option
If you’ve been doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, PRP may be a conversation worth having.
Curious if PRP is right for you?
