Neck & Low Back Pain

This can be caused by a variety of factors, including muscle strain, degenerative joint disease, and herniated discs.

Joint pain

Cause of Joint Pain can range from mild to severe and can affect any joint in the body, including the hips, knees, shoulders, elbows, and hands.

Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine may include orthobiologic treatments such as BMAC (bone marrow aspirate concentrate) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). These treatments use components obtained from the patient’s own bone marrow or blood and may be considered as part of an individualized treatment plan for selected musculoskeletal conditions.

Compression Fractures

This is most common in the spine, and it is often seen in people with osteoporosis, a condition that causes the bones to become weak and brittle.
