MRI's are amazing technology...but they can be very misleading. There are literally hundreds of studies that take people who are pain free and the researchers will do an MRI on their knees, back, neck or shoulders and the MRI "finds" problems, but the patient is completely pain free. The MRI has been identified as one of the most wasteful medical expenses in the United States. It doesn't mean it can't be helpful, but it should rarely be the first test ordered.

Did you know that low back pain is the second most common reason for someone to see a doctor in the U.S.? Billions of dollars are spent on evaluating and treating back pain but research shows over and over again that starting Physical Therapy as soon as possible saves thousands of dollars for patients!

This is a touchy topic so we want to be respectful. We're not saying ALL Medicare Advantage plans are bad or they never work. But, our experience with these plans has shown us that 99% of people that have a Medicare Advantage plan don't actually know what they have. The bottom line is this, when you sign up for a Medicare Advantage plan you are giving up your personal right to traditional Medicare. They are now replacing Medicare for you. What this means is services like physical therapy which were covered now are extremely limited and require pre-authorization which Medicare never required. We've had instances of patients who were given 3 visits after a total knee replacement and then denied further physical therapy. Whereas traditional Medicare lets the physical therapist decide how many visits you need (often for a total knee it might be 12-20). We've also seen patient surgeries denied that would have absolutely been covered under traditional Medicare. This is definitely a buyer beware situation!

Shoulder pain limiting your range of motion? Back pain making it hard to sit, stand, or sleep? Manual therapy is a hands-on approach our therapists use to relieve pain, restore mobility, and speed up recovery. By directly addressing stiff joints and tight muscles, we can target the root of the problem — not just the symptoms.
