• Sciatica
  This condition is an irritation or compression of one or more nerve roots in the lumbar spine. Because these nerves travel to the hips, buttocks, legs and feet, an injury in the lumbar spine can cause symptoms in these areas. Sciatica may result from a variety of problems with the bones and tissues of the lumbar spinal column.
• Whiplash
  At first, you may feel pain and stiffness in the neck, and it may even feel better early on. But the pain and stiffness can return several days later and last for months, or even years. Typically, whiplash can result in discomfort in your head, chest, shoulders, and arms. It is important to seek medical help to assess whether or not you have suffered trauma of the neck if you have experienced an accident which resulted in a quick and abnormal jerking of the head.
• Pinched Nerve
  This injection relieves pain in the neck, shoulders, and arms caused by a pinched nerve (or nerves) in the cervical spine. Conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or radiculopathy can compress nerves, causing inflammation and pain. The medication injected helps decrease the swelling of nerves.

Physical Therapists

• Sports Medicine
  Whiplash, a sudden jostle or “whipping” of the head, results in trauma delivered to the soft tissues of the neck. These sudden changes of motion strain the muscles and ligaments of the neck beyond their normal range of motion. Auto accidents are the most common situation in which whiplash occurs. As a vehicle is stopped or is struck from behind, the seat belt’s design, although excellent at keeping the person’s body from being thrown forward, cannot protect the movement of the neck, and the head may snap forward, and back again. Whiplash damage can also occur from certain amusement park rides, from particularly traumatic sports injuries, or being struck or shaken violently.
• Physical Therapy
  Post laminectomy sundrome can be treated with medications, physical therapy, electrical nerve stimulation, spinal injections, or, in sever cases, another surgery.
• Frozen Shoulder
  Your shoulder joint is composed of three bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone). Your shoulders are the most movable joints in your body. They can also be unstable because the ball of the upper arm is larger than the shoulder socket that holds it. To remain in a stable or normal position, the shoulder must be anchored by muscles, tendons and ligaments. Because the shoulder can be unstable, it is the site of many common problems. They include sprains, strains, dislocations, separations, tendinitis, bursitis, torn rotator cuffs, frozen shoulder, fractures and arthritis.
