Dear Valued Client,
We start with a comprehensive evaluation to establish the root cause of your pain. We then come up with a treatment plan created specifically for you and your condition. We use a combination of hands-on, manual techniques along with exercise and modalities to get the best results. 26% of the projected total adult population aged 18 years and older will have doctor-diagnosed arthritis. What is Soft Tissue Pain? Soft tissue pain is pain in most of the other parts of the body besides bone.
