Platelet Rich Plasma

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced, regenerative treatment now available at The Barn Door Veterinary Care. Widely recognized in human sports and orthopedic medicine, PRP is gaining popularity in veterinary care as a safe and natural way to support healing, reduce pain, and improve mobility in pets.

How PRP Helps the Body Heal-It works by:

• Delivering a high concentration of natural growth factors to injured or inflamed tissue.
• Stimulating the body’s own repair and regeneration processes
• Reducing inflammation and discomfort
• Supporting improved tissue strength and function over time
• Because PRP comes from the patient’s own blood, it is considered a natural and low-risk therapy

When reintroduced into the body, these bioactive proteins help:

• Stimulate tissue repair
• Reduces inflammation
• Accelerate recovery time
• Provide a natural alternative to long-term medications or steroids
• Because PRP uses your pet’s own blood, it’s a non-surgical, low-risk option that delivers the body’s own healing power directly where it’s needed most.

Conditions PRP Therapy Can Help Manage

• Osteoarthritis / degenerative joint disease
• Promotion of post-surgical healing
• Wound or burn care
• Corneal ulcers
• General cases of inflammation
• Soft tissue injuries

A Regenerative, Patient-Focused Treatment

PRP is often used as part of a multimodal treatment plan and may help reduce reliance on long-term medications or delay more invasive procedures. While results vary, many patients experience improved comfort, mobility, and quality of life.
