conditions
-
rotator cuff tears
Rotator cuff tears involve damage to the group of muscles and tendons surrounding the shoulder joint, often caused by injury or overuse, leading to pain, weakness, and limited shoulder mobility.
-
herniated discs
Herniated discs occur when the soft inner core of a spinal disc protrudes through its outer shell, pressing on nearby nerves and causing symptoms such as back pain, sciatica, and numbness or tingling in the arms or legs.
-
meniscus tear/repair
Meniscus tears involve damage to the rubbery cartilage discs in the knee joint, typically caused by twisting or sudden movements, resulting in pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg. Post-surgical meniscus repair rehabilitation specialists.
-
labral tears
Labral tears occur when there is damage to the cartilage ring (labrum) surrounding the socket of the shoulder or hip joint, often due to trauma or repetitive stress, leading to pain, instability, and limited range of motion.
-
Pinched nerves
Pinched nerves happen when a nerve is compressed or irritated by surrounding tissues, such as bones, muscles, or discs, resulting in symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness along the nerve's pathway.
-
lower back pain
Low back pain refers to discomfort or stiffness in the lower region of the spine, commonly caused by muscle strain, injury, poor posture, or degenerative conditions, and can range from mild to severe, impacting daily activities.
-
shoulder pain
Shoulder pain can arise from various sources, including rotator cuff injuries, labral tears, arthritis, bursitis, or shoulder impingement syndrome, leading to discomfort, stiffness, weakness, and limited arm movement.
-
hip pain
Hip pain can result from conditions such as osteoarthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, labral tears, or muscle strains, causing discomfort, stiffness, reduced mobility, and difficulty with weight-bearing activities.
-
Headaches and Migraines
Headaches are characterized by pain and discomfort in the head or neck region, often accompanied by other symptoms such as sensitivity to light or sound. They can be caused by various factors, including tension, stress, poor posture, muscle tension, or misalignment of the spine.
-
Sport Related Injuries
Sport-related injuries refer to any physical damage or trauma sustained during athletic activities or exercise. These injuries can affect various parts of the body, including muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, and joints. Common sport-related injuries include strains, sprains, fractures, dislocations, tendonitis, and overuse injuries.
-
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that causes pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and arm. It occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes compressed or squeezed at the wrist. This can happen due to repetitive motions, such as typing or assembly line work, or conditions like arthritis or diabetes. Treatment may involve wrist splinting, medications, therapy, or in severe cases, surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve.
-
Pregnancy -related discomfort
Pregnancy-related discomfort encompasses a range of physical symptoms experienced by expectant mothers. These may include back pain, pelvic pain, swelling, nausea, fatigue, and difficulty sleeping. Hormonal changes, weight gain, and the body's adjustment to accommodate the growing fetus contribute to these discomforts. While discomfort is common, it's essential to consult healthcare providers for personalized guidance and management strategies tailored to each individual's needs and pregnancy stage.
-
TMJ disorders
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders involve dysfunction or pain in the jaw joint and muscles that control jaw movement. Symptoms include jaw pain, clicking or popping noises, difficulty chewing, headaches, and locking of the jaw. Causes may include jaw injury, arthritis, teeth grinding, or misalignment. Treatment may involve lifestyle changes, pain management, dental splints, physical therapy, or in severe cases, surgery. Early diagnosis and intervention can help alleviate symptoms and improve jaw function.
