Conservative Treatment

“Conservative treatment” refers to non-surgical, non-invasive, or minimally invasive approaches used in healthcare to manage and treat various conditions. This approach aims to address symptoms and promote healing without resorting to surgical procedures or aggressive interventions. Conservative treatment methods are often considered first, especially for conditions that may respond well to less invasive measures.

Chiropractic Care:

Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, with special emphasis on the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques, including manipulation of the spine, to adjust joints and relieve pain. Network Spinal is another chiropractic technique targeting the nervous system and is also passive. Chiropractic is a very effective passive therapy for reducing pain and inflammation.

Passive Therapy VS Active Therapy:

The terms passive and active apply to all physical therapies, and refers to the state you are in during therapy. Passive therapy techniques are those that do not require the patient to exert physical effort to participate in treatment. Instead, passive therapies rely on the therapist to administer all of the necessary care manually. Active therapy like kinesiology means you are self-actuating the movement, activating your own muscles to push, pull or move.

Example of passive treatments

Physiotherapy (Passive Physiotherapy e.g. I.M.S.)

Passive physio treatments include IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation, aka dry needling) and manual tissue and joint manipulation, ultrasound and electrical stimulation. These are passive treatments because you remain in a relaxed position to receive them. Passive physiotherapy treatments can be incredibly effective for relaxing muscles, pain management, reducing inflammation and regaining function more quickly.

Example of active treatments

Clinical Exercise

It is a system of exercises developed to assist in injury rehabilitation, normally administered by a physiotherapist or kinesiologist. Emphasis is on core stability, posture control and movement, making it perfect for individuals who have been injured or are physically challenged by their condition.

When To See An Auto Injury Doctor
There are certain car accident injuries that may not appear for several hours or days after the accident. This is often caused by adrenaline and other endorphins, which can block pain and increase your energy level as a method of powering through the emergency, thus masking your injuries.

Hidden car accident injuries can be soft tissue damage or something even more serious. The only way to know for sure is to visit an auto injury doctor as soon as possible after your accident.

Reviews

My mom had her wrist broken and was in so much pain, I was very worried. So I took her to the doctor at Neo Medical Group at once. He examined her hand, and told us that the best solution for an injury now is Joint Reconstruction. The price of this treatment is surprisingly low, and they took good care of my mom there. She feels great and is thankful to your professional doctors.

Wonderful doctor Curtis L. Beauregard. Clearly explains what he can do to improve function and what cannot be done. Easy manner, listens well.

I was treated like a human and not just shuffled thru like most other places. I appreciate the staff greatly. My respects to Dr. Beauregard.

For the last 5 years I had been suffering from acute pain in the elbow. My grandson decided to take me to the trusted doctor to check if it is an injury or what exactly. In Neo Medical Group, they told me that due to my age I have a severe condition which needs to be treated with Arthroscopic Debridgement of the Elbow. And this treatment really helped, I never felt better.

Great Facility!! Amazing staff!! Won’t be disappointed
