Osteoarthrities
The most common form of arthritis is known as osteoarthritis, which occurs when the cartilage lining of a joint wears down. This happens due to aging, injury and obesity, with pain and stiffness being the most common symptoms. In more advanced cases, there is friction between bones, causing pain at rest or pain with loss of joint mobility.
Typically the knees, hips and spine (neck and low back) are involved and bone spurs can also develop causing bony deformity and irritation of the spinal nerves.
Although there is no cure for osteoarthritis there are effective treatment solutions. Our program is aimed at improving the quality of life by slowing down the disease process, decreasing pain and enhancing mobility. This allows you to get back to doing the activities you love.
Injury Rehab & Management
Injuries can range from the common sprains/strains and joint pains (think “I pulled my back” or “I twisted my ankle”) to more serious ones which can lead to loss of physical function/work and chronic pains. For simple injuries, recovery can take a few weeks but it is important to seek treatment to prevent delayed healing or complications. For more serious injuries rehab is often required in order to restore strength and mobility. Pain management and further injury prevention also become very important.
Common causes of injury are work accidents, sports injuries, repetitive strain injuries and postural strains.
Don’t live in pain. Our safe and effective program targets the source of your problem with the goal of full tissue resolution/healing in the least amount of time possible.
Motor Vehicle Accident
At OrthoPlus, we understand that you are not only dealing with physical injuries, but also with the added headache of dealing with paperwork from your insurance company. We help all patients with their needs so that they can focus on a speedy recovery.
Many symptoms that an individual experiences in a car crash are related to whiplash and better known as Whiplash Associated Disorder. Neck and backaches are typical as well as headaches, shoulder pains and dizziness. Even if your injuries are minor in nature it is well advised that an individual receive an assessment to determine if treatment may be necessary in order to decrease the risk of future pains and complications. We custom tailor our treatments according to the level of injury you have sustained.
There are no out of pocket expenses that you would be responsible for as we directly bill your insurance company for the necessary treatments.
Low Back
In the majority of cases, back pain results from lifestyle issues, whether from sitting too long, bending or lifting improperly, and being in poor physical condition. You can have LBP with or without radiating leg or foot pain (known as sciatica), which typically occurs in one leg as nerves become irritated. This can also produce numbness or tingling in the affected leg.
Back pain can be a persistent problem throughout life, leading to decreased activities and lower quality of life. Our goal is to restore your mobility and return you to the activities you love. Remember, no referral is necessary.
