ACP (Autologous Conditioned Plasma)
Once the venous blood collection procedure is completed, the patient’s blood is processed in a centrifuge. The separated plasma is removed. The platelets contained therein produce protein and messengers, which stimulate cell growth and tissue repair. This is mainly used in chronic inflammatory reactions, such as inflammation of the Achilles tendon, tennis elbow and inflammation of the patellar tendon, as well as in acute muscle injuries. The ACP is injected into the lesion. This triggers the body to replace the inflamed and damaged tissue with healthy tissue.
Generally, 3 injections are required at one-week intervals.
The cost of this therapy is not covered by insurance.
