Physical medicine and rehabilitation employs diverse physical techniques such as thermal agents and electrotherapy, as well as therapeutic exercise and behavioral therapy, alone or in tandem with interventional techniques and conventional pharmacotherapy to treat pain, usually as part of an interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary program.
Most often people come in with complaints of pain:
- Neck and shoulder
- Arm, wrist, and hand
- Hip and back
- Leg, ankle, and foot
These problems can be recent or long-term. They may be related to sports injuries, car accidents, or falls.
Treatments
Osteopathic Manipulation (OMT)
OMT is the therapeutic application of manual techniques by an osteopathic physician to address the changes in body structure to improve physiologic function.
OMT techniques range from gentle palpation to high-pressure or rapid, forceful manipulation.
Massage Therapy
Myofascial release refers to the manual massage technique that claims to release adhered fascia and muscles with the goal of eliminating pain, increasing range of motion and equilibrioception. Myofascial release usually involves applying shear compression or tension in various directions, cross fiber friction or by skin rolling.
Stem Cell & Platelet Rich Plasma Injections
An alternative to surgical pain management, this conservative treatment can help you with pain in your wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, and ankles.
Use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult stem cells is under preliminary research for potential orthopedic applications in bone and muscle trauma, cartilage repair, osteoarthritis, intervertebral disc surgery, rotator cuff surgery, and musculoskeletal disorders, among others. Other areas of orthopedic research for uses of MSCs include tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
