    Auto Injuries: The unintended collision of one motor vehicle with another, a stationary object, or person, resulting in injuries, death and/or loss of property.
  • Sports Injuries
    Sports Injuries: Sports injuries result from acute trauma or repetitive stress associated with athletic activities. Sports injuries can affect bones or soft tissue such as ligaments, muscles, and tendons.

  • Arthritis
    Arthritis: Arthritis is inflammation of one or more of your joints. The main symptoms of arthritis are joint pain and stiffness, which typically worsen with age. The most common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Carpal Tunnel
    Carpal Tunnel: Carpal tunnel syndrome is a hand and arm condition that causes numbness, tingling and other symptoms. Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by a pinched nerve in your wrist.
  • Headaches/Migraines
    Headaches/Migraines: A migraine headache can cause intense throbbing or a pulsing sensation in one area of the head and is commonly accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.
  • Numbness/Tingling in Arms/Legs
    Numbness/Tingling in Arms/Legs: Numbness and tingling are unusual prickling sensations that can happen in any part of your body, but they are generally noticed in hands, feet, arms, and legs.
  • Scoliosis
    Scoliosis: Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown.
  • Sprains/Strains
    Sprains/Strains: A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments — the tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect two bones together in your joints. The most common location for a sprain is in your ankle. A strain is a stretching or tearing of muscle or tendon. A tendon is a fibrous cord of tissue that connects muscles to bones. Strains often occur in the lower back and in the hamstring muscle in the back of your thigh.
  • Tendonitis
    Tendonitis: Tendonitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon — any one of the thick fibrous cords that attaches muscle to bone. The condition causes pain and tenderness just outside a joint.
  • Allergies
    Allergies: Allergies occur when your immune system reacts to a foreign substance — such as pollen, bee venom or pet dander
  • Asthma
    Asthma: Asthma is a condition in which your airways narrow and swell and produce extra mucus. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.
  • Constipation/Digestive disorders
    Constipation/Digestive Disorders: Constipation is generally described as having fewer than three bowel movements a week. All diseases that pertain to the gastrointestinal tract are labeled as digestive diseases.
  • TMJ/Jaw Pain
    TMJ/Jaw Pain: The temporomandibular (tem-puh-roe-mun-DIB-u-lur) joint (TMJ) acts like a sliding hinge, connecting your jawbone to your skull. TMJ disorders can cause pain in your jaw joint and in the muscles that control jaw movement.
