Overview

back pain

Our goal is to restore optimum functionality for all patients using multiple treatment options in addition to traditional medical approaches with medications. Using intervention treatment options such as minimally–invasive procedures or surgery, referral services to Complimentary Alternative Medicine (CAM) such as acupuncture, chiropractor and various movement classes, behavioral and mental health, as well as rehabilitative treatment such as Physical and Occupational Therapy allows a treatment plan that considers holistic approach to the patient's well–being. Our goal is to relieve acute pain, minimize progression to chronic pain, maximize function, decrease disability, and optimize treatment of chronic pain in such a manner to minimize suffering and maximize quality of life.
