We provide expert care and innovative solutions for a wide range of orthopedic conditions, helping you move better and live pain-free.
Your feet and ankles form a complex structure of bones, ligaments, and tendons that support your body’s weight and enable walking, running, and balance. When injured, even simple movements can become painful or unstable.
The hand, wrist, and elbow work together to provide both strength and precision. These joints, muscles, and tendons allow you to grip, lift, and perform fine motor tasks — essential for nearly every daily activity.
The hip is a powerful ball-and-socket joint connecting the thigh bone (femur) to the pelvis. It supports body weight, absorbs impact, and enables walking, bending, and rotation. Pain or stiffness here can limit mobility and stability.
The knee is the body’s largest joint, connecting the thigh bone, shinbone, and kneecap. It provides stability and flexibility for walking, climbing, and sports. When injured or worn down, knee pain can significantly reduce mobility.
The shoulder is a highly mobile ball-and-socket joint supported by muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It allows a wide range of motion for lifting, reaching, and rotation — but its complexity also makes it prone to injury and pain.
The spine and supporting muscles of the neck and back protect the spinal cord and allow for posture, movement, and flexibility. When strained or injured, they can cause pain that limits motion and daily function.
Physical therapy focuses on restoring movement and function through targeted exercises, manual techniques, and education. It helps strengthen muscles, improve joint mobility, and enhance overall recovery after injury or surgery.
Pain management specialists address acute and chronic pain by targeting muscles, joints, and nerves through personalized treatment plans. The goal is to reduce discomfort, restore function, and improve quality of life.
Work-related injuries often affect the muscles, joints, and spine, leading to pain and loss of function. Our team provides evaluation, treatment, and rehabilitation to help you recover safely and return to work.
