FAQs
The Restore360 Visit at PRO Institute is a comprehensive diagnostic process designed to identify your specific issues thoroughly and create a personalized Restoration Plan tailored to your unique needs. Unlike conventional approaches that focus solely on the immediate problem, Restore360 takes a holistic view of your overall health and condition. This ensures that all contributing factors are considered, promoting the best possible outcomes after your procedure. By addressing the root causes and supporting your full recovery, the Restore360 Visit helps you achieve lasting results and optimal well-being.
PRO Institute offers a thorough, personalized approach with a Restore360 Visit. We use Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to measure muscle, fat, and hydration levels to help you understand how body composition affects joint health and recovery. We include inflammatory marker labs to check internal health factors to better assess restoration needs. We include a detailed questionnaire to track progress and adjust care. Every Restore360 Visit includes an in-depth ultrasound-guided exam to provide precise imaging for diagnostics. Lastly, our patients spend an average of 45 minutes with the physician for result reviews and personalized treatment planning for optimal recovery and joint health.
At PRO Institute, we utilize a hematology analyzer to measure platelet counts and compare the concentration of platelets before and after centrifugation. This ensures the PRP preparation meets therapeutic dosing thresholds, typically 5 – 15x baseline platelet concentration.
Currently, most major insurance companies do not cover orthobiologics, like PRP (https://pro-institute.com/service/prp-injections/)or stem cell injections.(https://pro-institute.com/service/stem-cell-therapy/) However, we do offer clear pricing and financing options through CareCredit or Cherry.
The cost of regenerative medicine varies based on the specific treatment and the individual condition being addressed.

Some pain is completely normal, and most patients report moderate pain and discomfort at the injection site for 48-72 hours which is typically managed with Tylenol and heating packs. After that, you’ll notice that the pain begins to subside. If the doctor has prescribed any medications, those will help. However, it’s important to note that anti-inflammatory medications should NOT be used before or after your procedure. In addition, Dr. Poovendran may also recommend physical therapy.
Physical therapy after a PRP or stem cell procedure supports and enhances the body’s natural healing process by restoring mobility, reducing pain, and improving strength. It helps prevent stiffness and re-injury through guided, progressive exercises tailored to your condition. By improving blood flow and reinforcing proper movement patterns, PT maximizes the long-term success of the regenerative treatment. Together, these therapies promote faster, safer recovery and better overall function.
Age is NOT a blanket disqualification for PRP or stem cell. Factors like overall health and the specific type of therapy are considered more important than age alone. At PRO Institute, we have successfully treated a range of ages, even those well into their 80’s.
In most cases, yes. In fact, the most consistent finding in all cell therapy research is that the procedures are safe with minimal risk.
The best way to know if you’re a candidate for cell therapies is to come in for a consultation. We will review any prior imaging studies, as well as conduct a diagnostic ultrasound of the area. The doctor will also review your health history, and determine the best course of treatment.
