Treating Back and Joint Pain: A Unique Solution
At sometime during their lives, nearly 80% of the population will experience recurrent episodes of back pain, with chronic neck and extremity joint pain occurring nearly half as often. In many cases, as a result of injury, family history, lifestyle and occupational stress, these painful conditions can become debilitating on a day to day basis. Treatment options can include chiropractic care, prescription medication, physical therapy, epidural, trigger point, and facet joint injections, and ultimately surgical intervention.
Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA) is an extraordinary procedure offering a solution to patients who suffer from unresolved acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain, and long-term pain syndrome, such as fibromyalgia. If you are one of these patients, MUA may provide meaningful pain relief, allowing you to resume normal activities and avoid more invasive procedures. The MUA procedure directly confronts the cause of chronic joint and muscle pain by allowing for the restoration of joint ranges of motion (with manipulation) while at the same time reducing fibrotic adhesions (with stretching and joint mobilization). For many chronic cases, these two methods may not have been effective due to guarded restrictive pain and spasm that prevents the full joint motion to be performed. By combining twilight sedation (from new advances in anesthesia) that removes painful muscle guarding in debilitating chronic conditions along with the clinically proven manipulative and stretching technique in MUA, these procedures once used independently are now combined with excellent results. Together they have a synergistic result of increased joint motion, increased function, and decreased pain. For more information on the MUA procedure, please call or speak directly with Dr. Randy at the office and he would be more than happy to answer your questions.
