PRP Treatment for Patients Travelling from Gibraltar
CellOrtho is a specialist regenerative orthopaedic clinic based in Nueva Andalucía, Marbella, approximately 30 minutes from Gibraltar. We regularly treat patients from Gibraltar who are looking for advanced, non-surgical alternatives to cortisone injections or joint surgery, delivered by an English-speaking specialist in a modern private clinic environment.
Why Patients from Gibraltar Choose CellOrtho
Gibraltar residents have access to GHA and St Bernard's Hospital for general healthcare, but specialist regenerative orthopaedic treatment is not widely available locally. Patients with knee osteoarthritis, shoulder pain, tendon injuries or sports injuries are often referred to the UK or offered cortisone injections as a first-line response.
CellOrtho offers a closer alternative. Our clinic in Marbella is just 30 minutes from the Gibraltar border, making it one of the most accessible specialist regenerative orthopaedic clinics for Gibraltar residents. All consultations and treatments are conducted in English by Dr. Arvin Yarollahi, an orthopaedic and sports medicine specialist licensed in Sweden, the United Kingdom and Spain.
What is PRP Therapy?
PRP therapy, or platelet-rich plasma therapy, is one of the most studied orthobiologic treatments available. A small blood sample is taken from your arm, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors and platelets, and then injected directly into the affected joint or tendon.
Because it is derived entirely from your own blood, the risk of adverse reaction is extremely low. The full process takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes, and most patients require between one and three sessions depending on the condition being treated.
Conditions We Treat
- Knee pain and knee osteoarthritis
- Shoulder pain, rotator cuff injuries and frozen shoulder
- Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow
- Hip pain and hip joint degeneration
- Back pain and disc-related conditions
- Sports injuries, tendon and ligament damage
