๐Ÿ’ก What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?

PRP therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a concentration of your own platelets to promote healing in injured joints, tendons, and ligaments. Itโ€™s a safe, minimally invasive option for patients looking to avoid surgery and get back to their normal activities faster.

โ€œPRP taps into the bodyโ€™s natural healing process,โ€ explains Dr. David Goodwin, orthopedic sports medicine specialist. โ€œIn many cases, it offers a meaningful alternative to surgery with less downtime and excellent results.โ€

If you're struggling with joint pain or a sports injury, PRP could be the next step in your recovery.

Advancing Knee Care in Our Community

Dr. David Goodwin recently visited a local physical therapy clinic to lead an engaging, hands-on session with therapists focused on knee treatment optionsโ€”including the MISHA Knee System.

By building strong partnerships with physical therapists, weโ€™re able to better support our patients before, during, and after treatmentโ€”ensuring a smoother, more confident recovery journey.

The MISHA Knee System is a joint-preserving solution for active individuals with knee osteoarthritis, designed to reduce pain and help you return to the activities you love.

This advanced technology is now offered by Dr. David Goodwin and Dr. Randall Peyton in our South Riding and Sterling locations.

If you're experiencing knee pain, ask us if MISHA or other treatment options could be right for you.

When it comes to orthopedic care, experience and trust matter.

Patients continue to share positive outcomes with Dr. Griffith and Dr. Underwoodโ€”two providers dedicated to delivering personalized, high-quality care.

From successful rotator cuff repair surgery with Dr. Griffith to exploring non-surgical alternatives with Dr. Underwood, patients feel supported at every stageโ€”from diagnosis through recovery.

๐Ÿ’ฌ One patient shared how their shoulder surgery was more manageable than expected and how their knee replacement recovery was clearly explained and guided throughout the process.

If you're experiencing shoulder injuries, knee pain, or want a second opinion on treatment options, our team is here to help you make the best decision for your health.

โญ Patient Review Spotlight โญ

Weโ€™re grateful when patients take the time to share their experiences with our team. One patient recently had this to say about Howie, our occupational therapist:

โ€œAfter two appointments at a different PT facility, where the therapists focused on every area except for the finger that required treatment, I was relieved to meet with Howie. He offered appropriate, targeted treatment, and he was extremely personable and kind. Highly recommended!โ€

At Arthritis & Sports, our therapy team focuses on personalized, targeted treatment so patients receive the care they actually need. Thank you, Howie, for providing such thoughtful and compassionate care!

If youโ€™re dealing with a hand, wrist, or finger injury, our specialists are here to help you recover and get back to doing what you love.
