Joint Pain
Discomfort, chronic pain, or inflammation arising from any part of a joint - including cartilage, bone, ligaments, tendons, or muscles.
Back Pain
Muscle aches in the back, including shooting, burning, or stabbing sensations or chronic pain.
Neck Pain
Pain that starts in or around the spine beneath your head, usually associated with radiating pain down one or both of the arms.
Hip Pain
Pain from hip joints, usually stemming from hip injuries. This does not necessarily need to come from your hip directly over the hip area; it can also be experienced in your groin or as pain in your thigh or knee.
Sports Injuries
These most commonly occur during sports or exercise, but are not limited to athletes. For example, factory workers get tennis elbow, painters get shoulder injuries, and gardeners develop tendinitis, even though they may not participate in sports.
Herniated Disc
A herniated disc occurs when a portion of the soft center of your spine pushes through a crack in its tougher exterior. Symptoms become apparent if the herniation compresses a nerve.
Pinched Nerve
A pinched nerve can occur in many areas throughout the body. It occurs when too much pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues, such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons. This results in pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the affected area.
Spine Compression
Spinal cord compression happens when pressure on the spinal cord causes the nerves within to swell, slowing down or blocking their blood supply. This stops the nerves from working normally.
Traumatic Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is a condition caused by a sudden, violent blow or jolt to the head or body, leading to temporary or permanent brain dysfunction. Effects can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage that affect cognitive, emotional, and physical functions.
