Why Start with a Diagnostic Exam?
When it comes to musculoskeletal conditions, a clear diagnosis is essential. Without it, even the best treatment tools can miss the mark.
That’s why our team of skilled providers takes the time to perform a thorough, individualized evaluation that includes:
Orthopedic testing to rule in and rule out possible conditions (e.g., soft tissue tears, joint dysfunction, nerve involvement)
Functional movement analysis to assess how your body is compensating and identify mechanical imbalances
Detailed health history to account for past injuries, lifestyle factors, and physical demands
Red flag screening to ensure safe and appropriate care
It’s not just about where it hurts—it’s about why it’s happening and what needs to change to help you move forward with confidence.
