A short conversational video/transcript featuring Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter and a colleague describing joint injection procedures and regenerative options. Dr. Schacter endorses his own PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy as a primary option for active middle-aged to older adults (he defines "middle age" roughly as 40–75). The speakers mention practical steps in joint injections (landmarks, ultrasound, ethyl chloride skin spray to numb the site).

So what the first thing we're doing is finding the joint space to make sure that we know exactly where we're going. We use landmarks to identify. We can also use ultrasound. This is a little cold spray. It's called ethyl chloride, to help numb the skin so he doesn't feel the needle stick quite so bad.
So my own prp, we're walking the walk, and we're talking the talk here at Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics. I really feel that this is. This is our best option for a lot of joint pain in the active, middle age, young, adventurous, patient. And middle age, I think should incorporate anywhere between 40 to 75. I think 75 is the new young. So come on in. Let's talk about.
Your joint pain. Let's get you fixed up.
