Sports Medicine & PRP Therapy
Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy designed for athletes who refuse to let injuries end their season. Accelerated healing, zero surgery, real results.
You have been pushing through the pain for months, but it keeps getting worse with every training session and competition.
Traditional rest-and-rehab protocols have stalled. Your body needs a biological boost to get back on track.
Your doctor recommended surgical intervention, but you want to explore regenerative alternatives before going under the knife.
Every week off the field or court means lost fitness, lost rankings, and missed opportunities you can never get back.
If any of this sounds familiar, PRP therapy may help accelerate your return to peak performance.
Platelet-Rich Plasma harnesses the concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate tissue repair at the cellular level.
Your blood is processed to isolate platelets at 5-10x normal concentration, releasing PDGF, TGF-beta, and VEGF growth factors directly at the injury site.
Growth factors stimulate collagen production, recruit stem cells, and promote new blood vessel formation to speed healing naturally.
PRP modulates the local inflammatory environment, reducing chronic inflammation that prevents proper healing in overuse injuries.
Every injection is guided by real-time ultrasound imaging, ensuring the PRP reaches the exact tissue that needs repair.
PRP therapy addresses a wide range of sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions. Each protocol is tailored to the specific tissue and injury.
Partial ligament tears and sprains of the knee that respond to regenerative stimulation before considering reconstruction.
Lateral and medial epicondylitis caused by repetitive strain. PRP targets the degenerated tendon to promote repair.
Partial thickness tears and tendinopathy of the shoulder that benefit from concentrated growth factor delivery.
Chronic heel pain from fascial degeneration. Ultrasound-guided PRP promotes tissue remodeling where it matters most.
Hamstring, quadriceps, and calf muscle injuries. PRP can reduce recovery time and lower the risk of re-injury.
Achilles tendinitis, patellar tendinopathy, and other chronic tendon conditions resistant to conventional treatment.
Comprehensive evaluation of your injury, training demands, and competitive timeline by our sports medicine specialist.
A small sample of your blood is collected in specialized tubes designed for optimal platelet concentration.
Your blood is processed in a medical-grade centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich fraction with concentrated growth factors.
The PRP is injected precisely into the injured tissue using real-time ultrasound guidance for maximum accuracy.
Personalized post-treatment plan including graduated return-to-sport protocol, physical therapy, and follow-up monitoring.
Every athlete heals at their own pace, but here is a general timeline for PRP recovery. Your specialist will customize this based on your specific injury.
Rest the treated area. Mild soreness and swelling are normal. Light walking and gentle range-of-motion exercises as tolerated.
Gradual introduction of low-impact activities. Physical therapy begins. Growth factors are actively stimulating tissue repair.
Sport-specific exercises begin. Increasing intensity as tissue strengthens. Most patients notice significant improvement by week 4.
Full training resumes with monitoring. Follow-up evaluation to assess healing. Most athletes return to competition during this phase.
Cancun offers the perfect environment for sports rehabilitation: warm climate, ocean swimming, and outdoor training facilities, all while receiving care at a COFEPRIS-regulated clinic.
Natural vitamin D and warm temperatures support faster healing and enable outdoor rehabilitation year-round.
Saltwater swimming provides natural low-impact rehabilitation, building strength without stressing recovering joints.
COFEPRIS-regulated clinic with specialists trained in sports medicine and regenerative therapies. World-class care at a fraction of US pricing.
Bilingual staff, airport transfers, accommodation guidance, and a dedicated patient coordinator throughout your stay.
“After 8 months of chronic Achilles pain, PRP therapy at Regeneris got me back to marathon training in just 6 weeks. I finished my next race pain-free.”

Understanding the differences helps you make an informed decision with your specialist.
| Factor | PRP Therapy | Surgery | Cortisone |
|---|---|---|---|
| Recovery time | 4-8 weeks | 3-12 months | Immediate (temporary) |
| Addresses root cause | Yes, promotes tissue repair | Yes, structural repair | No, masks symptoms |
| Invasiveness | Minimally invasive injection | Surgical incision, anesthesia | Simple injection |
| Risk of complications | Very low (autologous) | Moderate (infection, scarring) | Tissue weakening with repeat use |
| Long-term results | Tissue regeneration | Structural correction | Temporary, may worsen over time |
| Repeat treatments | 1-3 sessions typical | Usually one-time | Limited (3-4 per year max) |
| Return to sport | Gradual, guided protocol | Extended rehabilitation | Quick but risky |
Your exact cost depends on the injury, the number of joints treated, and the recommended protocol.
One PRP injection for a single joint or tendon

Most athletes begin light activity within 1-2 weeks and return to full training between 4-8 weeks, depending on the injury type and severity. Your specialist will create a graduated return-to-sport protocol specific to your discipline.
The injection involves mild discomfort similar to a standard injection. Local anesthesia is applied to the treatment area, and ultrasound guidance ensures precision. Most athletes describe the sensation as pressure rather than pain.
Most sports injuries respond well to 1-3 PRP sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart. The number depends on injury severity, tissue type, and your body's healing response. Your specialist will recommend a protocol after the initial assessment.
In many cases, PRP therapy can help athletes avoid or delay surgery, especially for partial ligament tears, tendinopathy, and muscle injuries. However, some injuries do require surgical intervention. Your specialist will provide an honest assessment.
Yes. PRP therapy is not prohibited by WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency), the IOC, or major professional sports leagues. It uses your own blood, so there are no banned substance concerns.
Cortisone reduces inflammation temporarily but does not heal tissue and can weaken tendons with repeated use. PRP stimulates actual tissue repair by delivering concentrated growth factors. PRP addresses the root cause, while cortisone only masks symptoms.
Most patients can travel the same day or the day after treatment. We recommend staying in Cancun for 24-48 hours post-injection for the initial follow-up. Our team can assist with accommodation recommendations.
Absolutely. We regularly coordinate with team doctors, physical therapists, and athletic trainers. We provide detailed treatment reports and recovery protocols that your home medical team can follow for seamless continuity of care.
