PRP & Prolozone Therapy for Orthopedic Healing
Natural Pain Relief & Joint Regeneration Without Surgery
If you’re struggling with joint pain, tendon injuries, or lingering inflammation, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy and Prolozone offer a safe, natural, and effective alternative to surgery or long-term medication use. At Maui Longevity Rx, we specialize in using regenerative medicine to help your body heal—starting at the cellular level.
PRP
PRP is a concentration of platelets taken from your own blood. These platelets are rich in growth factors—natural signaling chemicals that stimulate the body’s healing response. PRP contains over 1,000 bioactive factors that promote tissue repair and recovery. When injected into damaged tissue, PRP works by stimulating local mesenchymal stem cells to migrate to the site of injury, where they help coordinate and accelerate the healing process.
This approach enhances the body’s ability to regenerate tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and soft tissue—making it a powerful treatment for both acute injuries and chronic musculoskeletal conditions.
🩸PDGF: Stimulates collagen synthesis and the remodeling of extracelluar matrix, ie scar tissue remodeling into healthy tissue.
🩸TGF-beta: Stimulates collagen production and prevents collagen breakdown, promotes bone growth and supports formation of new blood vessels. New blood vessels = more oxygen and nutrients = healthier happier cells!
🩸VEGF: Supports new blood vessel formation. After around age 30, our capillary beds start to shrink. That means that it’s harder for cells to get the nutrients they need. This speeds up the aging process! Promoting new healthy blood vessels is a great way to combat the age-related cellular decline.
🩸EGF: Works with TGF-beta and VEGF to support healthy blood vessel repair and formation and dramatically shortens the healing process. Also stimulates mesenchymal stem cells.
🩸IGF-1: Stimulates mesenchymal stem cells and supports bone growth and repair.
🩸FGF: Stimulates growth of cartilage cells and bone, activates mesenchymal stem cells and works with VEGF to support healthy blood vessel formation.
- Joint pain (knee, shoulder, hip, ankle, low back and neck)
- Osteoarthritis and early joint degeneration
- Torn meniscus or labrum
- Tendonitis and tendinosis (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, tennis elbow)
- Ligament injuries and sprains
- Bursitis and soft tissue inflammation
Prolozone
Oxygen-Powered Healing for Pain Relief and Joint Regeneration
Prolozone therapy is an advanced, non-surgical treatment that uses the healing power of ozone to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and stimulate tissue repair. At Maui Longevity Rx, we use Prolozone alongside PRP as part of our regenerative medicine approach to help patients recover from chronic joint pain and degenerative arthritis.
- Increase oxygen delivery to damaged tissues
- Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress
- Stimulates cartilage regeneration
- Relieve pain and improve mobility
- Combined with PRP, activates the platelets and increases growth factor release
Benefits of PRP & Prolozone for Orthopedic Care:
- Minimally invasive, non-surgical solution
- Speeds up recovery and reduces inflammation
- May delay or prevent the need for joint surgery
- Promotes long-term restoration of mobility and function
Combining PRP with Other Regenerative Therapies
PRP is often even more effective when combined with complementary treatments such as prolozone, peptide injections, stem cell or exosome therapy, or a functional movement plan. Our team creates a personalized strategy to support your recovery and long-term joint health.
Is PRP right for your injury?
Before any injection therapies, one of our orthopedic specialists, either Dr. Loren or Brittany Yahraus, PA-C, will perform an extensive exam that includes a physical exam and diagnostic ultrasound scan. The ultrasound enables them to look at the damaged area tactically and dynamically which helps provide details on the severity and nature of the injury. From that information, they will be able to guide you towards your best options for recovery.

Very rarely do I feel tightness in my lower back now. 95% of the inflammation is gone. I was tired of taking anti-inflammatory meds and exercises that didn’t work. Dr. Emily is very knowledgeable on PRP and will explain the process step by step.“

and more importantly is healing the damage. I also dislocated my shoulder this year 2021 and the Stem Cell treatment with a follow up PRP on that shoulder made it feel better than the arm that had no damage. Want to do the other shoulder too now because it’s so amazing what the healing results are from the treatment. Yes, it works! Yes, insurance doesn’t cover it because it works!! And there’s nothing to get you addicted too except feeling better. On top of it all the staff and Dr. Emily are amazing. The new Shockwave Therapy is a great addition to the PRP. I call it the Pain Relieving Jackhammer because that’s how it sounds and that’s what it does l! Breaks up the pain. I have been to 25 doctors and even went to Panama for a stem cell treatment over the past 11 years but the answer I have been looking for I found in Paia at IV Therapy Maui! Mahalo“
