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.
Common Causes of Hand & Wrist Pain
Proven Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction
Clinical evidence and in-practice results show strong success rates:
- 70-80% of PRP patients report long-term pain relief and improved function
- Combined PRP + ESWT reduces carpal tunnel symptoms in 4-6 weeks
- Studies show up to 95% functionality recovery in chronic hand/wrist conditions
- Our in-house patient satisfaction rate exceeds 90%, with significant symptom relief reported in as little as two sessions
All procedures are performed in-office using sterile technique, ultrasound imaging, and fine-gauge needles for optimal accuracy and comfort.
What Are PRP, Stem Cell, and ESWT Treatments?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Concentrated from your own blood, PRP is rich in growth factors that accelerate healing in tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. It is injected under ultrasound guidance to target inflammation and tissue damage with precision.
Stem Cell Therapy
Derived from your adipose (fat) tissue, stem cells support the regeneration of cartilage and soft tissue, ideal for degenerative joint conditions and tendon tears.
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT)
A non-invasive treatment using acoustic waves to stimulate circulation and healing. Cleared by the FDA for chronic musculoskeletal pain, ESWT is especially effective for tendon and soft tissue recovery.
Step-by-Step Treatment Process
- Consultation: Personalized exam with ultrasound imaging to assess injury or nerve compression
- Diagnostic Testing: Optional nerve conduction studies to evaluate nerve health and rule out advanced compression
- Customized Treatment Plan: Tailored regenerative protocol combining PRP, stem cells, and/or ESWT as needed
- In-Office Procedure: Quick, comfortable injection or ESWT treatment with optional sedation or numbing
- Recovery and Rehab: Most patients resume daily tasks the same day. We coordinate follow-up with hand therapists across West LA, including in Santa Monica and Culver City.
