A science-based guide to photobiomodulation for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, covering the 630-850nm wavelength evidence, treatment protocols, at-home vs clinical devices, and who is most likely to benefit.
At a Glance PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate healing – it is a same-day, minimally invasive procedure costing $500 to $2,000 per injection.
