What Types Of Orthopedic Conditions Do We Treat?
Orthopedic injuries are the most common conditions we treat and affect people of all ages. It is important to realize that orthopedic injuries are the result of multiple different tissue pathologies including muscle, bone, and connective tissue. Orthopedic injuries do not just occur at the site of injury or pain. They may be the result of something happening at the spinal level or due to compensation/overuse because of a pathology elsewhere in the kinetic chain.
