Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
In recent years, a new method of treating chronic pain in tendons, ligaments and joints has become widespread in developed countries – injections of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Today, this technique has a large evidence base according to numerous studies.
The healing of injuries can be delayed due to insufficient blood supply to the affected area. Tendons, ligaments and joints have poor blood supply compared to bones, skin and other tissues. This makes them prone to repeated injuries, in particular, microtraumata during certain professional or sports activities, and causes prolonged healing time and consistent pain.
Platelets are a natural factor for healing damage in the body. They contain eight fundamental protein growth factors that have been shown to be actively secreted by platelets to initiate the healing process and cause capillary growth, repair of connective tissue fibers and cartilage, and ultimately pain reduction.
The idea behind platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections is to create a high concentration of the said protein growth factors in areas and tissues where the body cannot create it due to low blood supply. PRP is made from the patient’s own blood. After centrifugation, blood cells such as erythrocytes and leukocytes are removed, leaving the liquid part of blood (plasma) with a high concentration of biologically active blood components, i.e., platelets.
PRP injections are delivered under ultrasound guidance.

An excellent clinic that specializes in the treatment of chronic pain. A professional approach, modern equipment, and attentive staff create a comfortable environment for patients. The treatment results exceed expectations – the pain has significantly decreased, and the quality of life has improved. I recommend it to anyone looking for effective help in dealing with pain.
Hello, my mother has had headaches (migraine) for over 20 years, and it got to the point where she was taking painkillers several times a day, leading to dependence and the feeling that nothing would help. However, after consulting many doctors and spending a lot of time and money, her condition only worsened because they were treating something entirely different, which only caused side effects. We decided to try the drug Azhovi, or rather botulinum toxin. We chose the SPRAVNO Pain Medicine Center because of their democratic prices, direct supplies, and confirmation of the quality and originality of the drug. Most importantly, the professionalism of Vadym Vasylovych Biloshytskyi, who established the correct diagnosis and prescribed treatment with Azhovi. The treatment is still ongoing, but already from the start, 80% of the pain has disappeared, the quality of life has changed, blood pressure has normalized, and muscle tone has improved.
I sincerely thank the doctor and the SPRAVNO staff! I recommend it.
For about 10 years, I have been suffering from migraines and tension headaches. The pain has become daily and unbearable over time. During the day, I could take 4-5 painkillers; some helped, some no longer did. I consulted various neurologists, who prescribed triptans and simply advised me to get pregnant, saying “the migraine might go away.”
I had already given up on the idea that someone could help me and was just relying on painkillers. Over time, I realized that it was impossible to live my whole life taking painkillers, as they were causing headaches too, and I started looking for a solution again.
I found the Spravno clinic, made an appointment for a consultation with Marina Vadymivna Biloshytska, and since then my life has been divided into before and after! I am happy to write this))
I have been undergoing treatment for half a year and have wonderful results; I haven’t taken painkillers for over a month now—this is already a small victory..!))
Marina Vadymivna is a fantastic professional, an excellent doctor, caring and attentive! In my years, I have rarely met such sincere and caring doctors; Marina Vadymivna is just like that.) She found an approach to my body, supported me through all stages of treatment, never left me with questions in my head, and selected a medication purely based on individual indicators..!
I am very grateful to the clinic; the administrator is always friendly and has connected me with the doctor whenever needed.
Marina Vadymivna Biloshytska is a neurologist whom I recommend from the bottom of my heart!
I want to express my immense gratitude to this clinic, especially to doctor Biloshytska M. V. Patients are treated here as unique individual cases, not just another conveyor belt patient, whose illness (and everything related to it) is not delved into. Attention to detail, masterful work (I go for botulinum toxin injections), and always a caring attitude. Of course, there is little joy when you have something that brought you to a pain medicine clinic, but it is pleasant to return here.
Thank you, Ruslan Yevheniyovych, for your help! A wonderful doctor, very attentive and knows his stuff.
Good afternoon, underwent a procedure for treating the trigeminal nerve at the center, very pleased with the staff, the facilities and the attentive care. Special thanks to Vadim Vasilievich. I highly recommend this center for examinations and procedures, very grateful
I have already been to see Dr. Biloshytska M.V. several times, and the doctor helped me get out of the critical condition I was in. Thank you very much for the help and treatment!
I recommend the SPRAVNO clinic and especially Dr. Biloshytska M.V. as a great specialist, as she helped me a lot.
I want to express my immense gratitude to the professionals in their field: neurosurgeon Vadim Vasilievich Biloshytsky and neurologist Marina Vadimivna Biloshytska, as well as the “SPRAVNO” clinic for their responsible and conscientious attitude towards their work and patients, for their high qualifications, and for their help in solving the problem. We succeeded!
I highly recommend them!!
