Looking for best chiropractor care? Many people turn to chiropractic adjustments when suffering ongoing back pain, but chiropractic care encompasses much more than spinal manipulation. A knowledgeable chiropractor understands the interdependent nature of the body’s systems, and pays attention to joints, vital organs, nerves and fascia that can affect the structures of the spine and contribute to pain throughout the body.
Chiropractic treatment is an evidence-based approach for treating mechanical back pain and myofascial pain disorders.
Modern chiropractors offer a variety of services and have a number of treatment options to help patients eliminate pain and discomfort.
At NYDNR, we take an individualized and holistic approach to chiropractic treatment. Our chiropractic approach is founded primarily on European manual therapy methods developed by renowned rehabilitation pioneers Karel Lewit and Vladimir Janda.
We use non-traumatic methods to treat abnormalities of the spine, joints and internal organs. Non-traumatic therapy eliminates the risks of bone fractures, ligament and tissue damage, damage to internal organs, and damage to the spinal cord.
Our mission is to go beyond pain treatment, to get to the source of your pain and resolve it, so you can enjoy the very best pain-free quality of life. To find the best chiropractor in NYC, contact NYDNRehab in midtown Manhattan.
and a faulty diagnosis can make treatment a total waste of time.
Failure to accurately diagnose a condition in its early stages can lead
to chronic problems and sometimes devastating results.
Diagnostic musculoskeletal sonography (MSUS) provides the perfect tool for the rehab practitioner. Yet many doctors and physical therapists have no experience with MSUS, are unaware of its advantages, and have no idea how to use it as a diagnostic tool.
Below is a prime example of how ultrasound can take the guesswork out of diagnosis.Successful Treatment
A bad physical therapy experience is one of the primary causes of unnecessary surgery.
We have equipped our clinic with the latest research-grade technology to arrive at objective and accurate diagnoses, and to objectively measure our patients’ progress.
Most importantly, we are the only facility in the US where structural medical diagnosis is reflected in functional treatment, and vice versa.
In this instance, an athlete was originally diagnosed with minor quadriceps muscle strain and was treated for four weeks, with unsatisfactory results. When he came to our clinic, the muscle was not healing, and the patients’ muscle tissue had already begun to atrophy.
Upon examination using MSUS, we discovered that he had a full muscle thickness tear that had been overlooked by his previous provider. To mitigate damage and promote healing, surgery should have been performed immediately after the injury occurred. Because of misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment, the patient now has permanent damage that cannot be corrected.
The most important advantage of Ultrasound over MRI imaging is its ability to zero in on the symptomatic region and obtain imaging, with active participation and feedback from the patient. Using dynamic MSUS, we can see what happens when patients contract their muscles, something that cannot be done with MRI. From a diagnostic perspective, this interaction is invaluable.
