Came in looking for prp for my wrist tendonitis i have suffered with for 2 years, i was a bit skeptical but the pain was awful so i gave prp a shot. Within the first 3 months after the prp i noticed my pain going away and slowly my wrist is healing. These guys were amazing and extremely friendly.
Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm, becomes compressed at the wrist. This condition affects over 8 million Americans, especially those who rely on their hands for work — including office professionals, athletes, musicians, and medical staff in fast-paced cities like L.A.
Common Symptoms:
- Tingling or numbness in the thumb and first three fingers
- Weakness in hand or grip strength
- Pain that worsens at night or during repetitive motion
- Burning or “electric shock” sensations in the hand or wrist
Research-Based Outcomes:
Innovative Carpal Tunnel Treatments
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP uses growth factors from your own blood to reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, and improve nerve function — without surgery. Treatments are done in-office with ultrasound guidance for accuracy and comfort.
Stem Cell Injections
Using mesenchymal stem cells from fat or bone marrow, this therapy promotes regeneration of damaged tissues and nerves. Ideal for patients with chronic CTS or recurrent symptoms after surgery.
Corticosteroid Injections
Fast-acting anti-inflammatory treatment for short-term relief. Often used to buy time while long-term regenerative healing occurs.
Nerve Hydrodissection
A specialized ultrasound-guided technique that separates the median nerve from surrounding tissues using a gentle fluid injection, often with lasting relief.
Frequently Asked Questions About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
-
CTS is usually caused by repetitive motion, wrist trauma, or inflammation that compresses the median nerve. It’s common in people who type, lift, or use their hands for detailed tasks.
-
In mild cases, symptoms may subside with rest and wrist splints. However, moderate to severe cases often worsen without intervention.
-
Both options offer excellent outcomes with fewer risks and shorter recovery times compared to surgery. They are best for patients seeking a natural, minimally invasive approach.
-
PRP recovery is typically 1-2 days of rest, with results building over 4-6 weeks. Stem cell therapy may take slightly longer but has long-term benefits in tissue regeneration.
-
Treatments are performed with local anesthetic. Most patients describe mild discomfort and return to normal activities within a day.
-
