Injuries and excessive physical activity can lead to violations of the integrity of bones, damage to joint bags, tendons and muscle fibers. The introduction of prepared autoplasma into the area of damaged tissue helps to restore the musculoskeletal system, eliminate pain and return the motor properties of the joints. Plasmolifting in traumatology allows to speed up rehabilitation after injuries, installation of prostheses and surgical interventions. Athletes most often resort to plasma therapy: this method helps them to speed up the healing process and return to training soon. Thus, sprains, dislocations and other injuries are cured as quickly and effectively as possible.
Plasmolifting of joints
Currently, the treatment of joint diseases can be more effective, and without taking significant doses of painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. The method that restores musculoskeletal functions is plasma therapy, or plasma lifting of joints. The effect of the procedure on such pathologies as joint inflammation, arthrosis, osteochondrosis, bone tissue defects, muscle fiber spasms is extremely positive. The huge advantage of Plasma LIFT is that it allows you to cure the disease without resorting to surgical treatment, and there is no need to stay in an inpatient clinic. The patient leads his usual lifestyle, periodically visiting the clinic for another procedure, as well as to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment. PRP accelerates tissue regeneration, improves their nutrition due to the activation of metabolic processes and accelerated development of the capillary network at the injection site. This treatment is safe, it does not provoke the development of an allergic response of the body, and is also suitable for patients of almost any age.
Plasmolifting of the knee joint
PRP is recognized as quite effective in knee diseases: arthrosis, arthritis, and for the treatment of meniscus of the knee joint. The procedure is prescribed mainly in stages I and II of the disease, but even in more advanced forms, patients feel significant relief after Plasma LIFT. The liquid part of the blood, enriched with platelets, which is administered as injections, helps restore the volume of synovial fluid, relieve pain, and strengthen joint tissues. At the same time, foci of inflammation and pathological changes in tissues are reduced or disappear. Let us remind you that plasma therapy involves the use of exclusively internal hidden resources of the body. This technique does not involve the use of chemical and toxic drugs, which makes the treatment of the knee joint safe and effective. As a result, pain and inflammation subside, which cannot but affect the quality and fullness of the patient's life.
Plasmolifting for arthrosis
Arthrosis is a disease associated with metabolic disorders in the joint. Most often, arthrosis affects the knee and hip joint, less often the elbow and shoulder joint. Sometimes even less common arthrosis of the finger phalanges develops. Plasma LIFT restores normal metabolism in the joint, eliminating pain and significantly facilitating movement and joint function. The result after a course of treatment largely depends on the patient's age and the stage of the disease. The initial stages of arthrosis can be cured completely. Advanced stages, especially in elderly patients, acquire a stable remission character after PRP: pain is eliminated, the joint becomes mobile.
Plasmolifting of the spine
Bone tissues in our body are prone to renewal, but over time these processes slow down significantly, turning into destructive processes. Autologous plasma injections are successfully used to strengthen bone tissue, as well as for spinal diseases, arthrosis and arthritis. The patient's own plasma eliminates signs of inflammatory reaction and accelerates tissue regeneration.
Osteochondrosis therapy with Plasma LIFT is probably the most promising method today. After the plasma therapy regimen, not only does the pain in the spine disappear and muscle spasm is relieved, but the surfaces of the bones and discs are also restored.
Wear and tear of discs and age-related changes in them, incorrect position of the spine and increased load on it over time weaken the discs and facet joints of the vertebrae, which leads to degenerative disorders. This process provokes back pain, creates functional discomfort.
PRP allows you to restore mobility in the spine, return its flexibility and cushioning function. The tissues of the spinal column begin to receive nutrients and moisture, which significantly improves the condition of patients.
The duration of treatment and the number of procedures can only be determined by a doctor, depending on the condition of the spine and the severity of the pathology.
Plasmolifting in orthopedics
Perhaps, most people periodically suffer from painful sensations in the back, from joint pain. Such pain can be associated with orthopedic pathologies, trauma, with degenerative disorders in bone and cartilage tissue. Often the disease lasts a long time and without adequate treatment, which subsequently significantly complicates the fight against the pathological process. The only way out in such situations is surgical treatment, since the problem can no longer be solved conservatively. For this reason, doctors insist that any disease, including musculoskeletal pathology, should be treated in a timely manner.
Even if there is minor pain and especially limited mobility in the joint, you should seek help from a specialist.
The procedure is considered an excellent preventative measure and is also used to prevent degenerative tissue disorders associated with age or long-term chronic joint pathologies.
Plasma therapy demonstrates the following effect:
- eliminates muscle spasms;
- relieves joint pain;
- expands the limited range of motion in the joint;
- restores the volume of fluid in the joint;
- strengthens local immunity in the joint;
- activates the restoration of cartilage and bones;
- strengthens tissues, improving tissue metabolism;
- reduces the recovery period after implant placement, surgeries, injuries, and damage to bone, muscles, and tendons.
The introduction of plasma in orthopedic diseases can allow to minimize the list of used drugs, for example, to relieve pain or remove the inflammatory process. Thus, the risk of negative side effects is reduced. The duration of treatment of the disease when using Plasma LIFT is reduced several times.
