Aching joints, muscular pain, arthritis, post-traumatic pain, headaches?? Find answers here...
Orthopedic or musculoskeletal medicine is the area of medicine directed towards chronic painful, mostly traumatic but sometimes metabolically induced conditions. This Includes the treatment of myofascial, spinal, joint, disc injuries and torn ligaments or tendon insertions. Frequently these conditions are accompanied by chronic painful muscle spasms or headaches, leg and arm pains.
In our practice we try to address these things non-surgically, but have access to the finest specialists in the Bay Area if surgical or other interventional diagnostic techniques are required.
Our approach is primarilybased in injection therapies for torn tissue (reinforcing injections), muscle injections in order to reduce spasticity (local anesthetic orBotox), vitamin/supplement use, dietary interventions, hormonal replenishment and exercise. Our armamentarium of
specialists include leading figures in the world of pain elucidation and treatment.
My background in this kind of medicine came from a long-standing affiliation with a major spine surgical center in the Bay Area. I've already seen the good, the bad and the ugly.
