Low back pain is the third most common reason for a trip to the doctor’s office. Whether you are an industrial worker with a heavy lifting job….or you carry groceries or lift your child… or you just want to move about your day in comfort…back or neck pain can impact your life 24 hours a day...every day.

Sources of spine-related pain – from the tailbone to the base of the skull – are often varied and complex, often requiring supportive diagnostic testing. You need someone who cares about you as a WHOLE person, evaluating how you move and use your spine throughout the day. You need a “hands on” expert, someone who can treat mechanical sources of pain with a watchful eye and careful hand, restoring pain-free living as quickly as possible. Our Spine Team may use any of the following resources to treat every aspect of your spine-related pain upon completion of a comprehensive evaluation:

• Manual therapy and mobilization
• Aquatic therapy
• Strengthening, conditioning, flexibility focused therapeutic exercise
• Electrical stimulation for muscle re-education
• Deep thermal modalities such as ultrasound
• 3-dimensional traction
