CHRONIC NECK AND BACK PAIN

WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT

qb.jpg

  1. A detailed and high-quality examination. Orthopedic tests, functional movement screening, range of motion testing, myofascial pain assessments, and more.

  2. A collaborative effort by doctors and therapists, toward a common goal.

  3. Diverse methods of treatment. After building a goal oriented game-plan for getting a patient’s problem resolved, we combine physical rehabilitation methods compiled from current data and research available for the patient’s condition.
