Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections.

Regenerative medicine harnesses your body’s own power to heal — offering a natural alternative to steroids, pain medications, and even surgery.

PRP injections use your body’s platelets to stimulate tissue repair, reduce pain, and restore function — helping you get back to doing the things you love.

At 417 Sports Medicine & Orthopedics, we offer this advanced regenerative orthopedic treatment designed to support healing, restore movement, and help you avoid surgery.

Nighttime gains are real!

Research shows that 40g of protein before bed (especially slow-digesting casein) can boost muscle repair and protein synthesis for up to 7.5 hours while you sleep — without disrupting your rest.

Train hard. Recover smart. Fuel your body even while you dream.

Want to move better, feel better, and recover smarter?

Foam rolling is a simple, effective way to improve mobility, reduce soreness, and support long-term joint and muscle health.

🔥 Before your workout:
Roll for ~5 minutes to activate muscles, boost blood flow, and improve movement.

⚡ After your workout:
Spend 5–10 minutes to ease soreness, speed up recovery, and keep your body performing at its best.

💡 Pro Tip:
Use light pressure before workouts, and go deeper after (if your body’s up for it).

Add it to your routine—you’ll feel the results.
