Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a classic stalled tendon — persistent outer-elbow pain that grip and lifting make worse.
Why regenerative therapy applies
Image-guided PRP is well suited to lateral epicondylitis, delivering concentrated platelets into the degenerated tendon to restart healing.
Are you a candidate?
Best for chronic tennis elbow that hasn't resolved with rest and bracing.
We turn patients away when the evidence says a therapy won't help. If a different path — or no treatment — serves you better, we'll say so at your consultation, before you've spent anything.

?Questions patients ask
Straight answers.
Does PRP work for tennis elbow?
Yes — image-guided PRP is a well-established option for chronic lateral epicondylitis, often after rest and bracing have failed.
Should I just wait and see if it gets worse?
Waiting is the one thing that works against you. These therapies do the most for early-to-moderate joint and tendon disease — the window where tissue can still respond. Once a joint collapses to bone-on-bone, the evidence for regeneration drops and surgery becomes the honest answer. If you're a candidate today, you may not be in two years. A free consultation gives you a clear read on where you are right now.
How much does treatment cost?
Stem cell therapy at Apex starts at $4,500 per joint (typically $4,500–$7,500); physician-performed PRP from $1,500; exosome therapy from $4,500. Stem cell protocols include PRP and a red light package in one inclusive fee. Your exact price is set at your free consultation, with HSA/FSA and financing available.
Is it covered by insurance?
No. U.S. insurers classify regenerative therapy for orthopedic and systemic conditions as investigational, so it is out of pocket. IV ketamine is usually self-pay. We keep care accessible with transparent pricing and financing.
Is it safe?
Serious adverse events are rare. The most common effects are temporary soreness or swelling for a few days. Every treatment is physician-performed under sterile, image-guided technique, and we screen candidacy carefully first.
