Wikepedia defines the practice scope of physical medicine and rehabilitation as the process involving the management of disorders that alter the function and performance of the patient. Emphasis is placed on the optimization of function through the combined use of medications, physical modalities, physical training with therapeutic exercise, movement & activities modification, adaptive equipment and assistive device, orthotics (braces), prosthesis, and experiential training approaches.
Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation physicians may also perform electrodiagnostics, which are used to provide nervous system functional information for diagnosis and prognosis for various neuromuscular disorders. The common electrodiagnostic tests performed by physiatrists are nerve conduction studies (NCS) and needle electromyographies (EMG).
The health care providers at Due West Integrated Health combine proven and innovative medical, chiropractic and rehabilitative methods. Spinal decompression, light therapy, therapeutic ultrasound, electric stimulation and core strengthening/postural improvements are just a few of the methods the Due West Integrated Health staff utilizes in which to obtain a minimally invasive form of healing and wellness. Our medical team will utilize techniques such as diagnostic ultrasound, vascular testing, nerve conduction tests, and food/drug allergy testing to assess the appropriate care for our patients.
Our chiropractic and sport rehab staff check for a variety of neuromusculoskeletal conditions like protruding discs, injured/spasming muscles and pinched nerves that may be the root of many pains and disease processes. We also educate patients on proper exercise and stretching techniques to help them better handle daily physical stresses. We can also council patients on maintaining a proper ergonomic environment in the office, at work, at play or in the gym. We take the time to help in any way we can.
Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical and drug-free answer to disc related syndromes of the lumbar or cervical spine. Decompression Therapy has been shown to be highly effective in the treatment of:
• Herniated Discs
• Bulging Discs
• Facet Syndrome
• Degenerative Joint Disease
• Pinched Nerves
• Various Spinal Afflictions
• and more....
Spinal Disc Decompression uses computer-aided technology to apply gentle, non-surgical decompression to the spine, increasing circulation into the spinal discs and joints, helping to relieve pain and dysfunction. This FDA approved technology creates a negative pressure inside the disc, allowing the bulging disc to eventually return to its normal position. Decompression is a non-surgical treatment that has been shown to be effective in severe cases of disc protrusion, degeneration, arthritis and facet syndromes.
