Orthopedic Injury Evaluation & Treatment

Orthopedic injuries involve the muscles, joints, ligaments, and connective tissue, and they often follow a fall, sports activity, a work incident, or a motor vehicle accident. In general, an evaluation aims to help identify the likely source of pain, restricted movement, or weakness so that a treatment plan can be discussed.

Evaluation

A Provider on our team performs orthopedic injury evaluations, which may also consider whether nerves are involved and what imaging studies show.

Digital Radiology Review Systems — used to review X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans.
Diagnostic Ultrasound — may be used to image muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Computerized Range-of-Motion Testing — used to measure range of motion.
EMG & Nerve Conduction Studies — may be used when an injury could also involve a nerve.

Treatment Support

TENS & Electrical Stimulation Therapy — a modality that may be used to help manage pain.
Therapeutic Ultrasound Therapy — a modality sometimes used alongside rehabilitation.

Results vary from patient to patient. We accept many insurance plans, including No-Fault coverage for motor vehicle accident injuries and Workers' Compensation for job-related injuries. Coverage varies by plan, so please call the office to confirm yours.
