Scoliosis Pain Relief Without Surgery

Scoliosis pain relief is quite possible without surgery.   Even when scoliosis is structural and with a significant curve there are many treatment options that can be quite effective.   This is because other structures such as muscle, nerve, and ligament often are the source of the pain, even spinal curvature is obvious.  In fact quite often the soft tissues surrounding the spine and the effects of scoliosis on the rest of the body hurt more than the cure itself. At Piedmont Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, PA we offer scoliosis spinal care for patients in Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, and surrounding areas.  We make use of musculoskeletal ultrasound, electrodiagnostics, and other less well known studies such as medical thermal imaging to diagnosis the root cause of your pain and then apply specific treatment options that try to restore tissue to normal.  The goal is always to improve function and quality of life while reducing pain, weakness, or numbness.   Learn more about diagnosis and treatment options for scoliosis at piedmontpmr.com.

Resolving Painful Migraine

Resolving painful migraine is a challenge but with consistent, dedicated effort it is achievable.   The first step is to recognize that all migraine is not alike.  In fact most migraines are actually mixed headaches.   Mixed headache means that there are multiple factors involved; the migraine, or headache, is actually not just one headache but the result of several headaches.    Common factors include cervicogenic (derived from the musculoskeletal structures of the neck), vasomotor (derived from either the vascular tree, sympathetic nervous system, or both), temporal mandibular related, tension, sinus, hormonal, and postural mechanical.   There are other factors as well.   By carefully teasing out which of these factors contribute to your migraine or headache a treatment plan that addresses each factor one at a time can then be crafted.  Learn more about diagnosis and treatment options for Migraine in Greenville, Spartanburg, and Anderson at piedmontpmr.com.
