Assessment
Your pain is important and listening to you comes first. That is when I get to know you and what you are experiencing in your words.
Based on your case, a series of tests, ranges of motions and postural observations will be used to help me design the best treatment for you. In case of a complicated/ dangerous condition, I can refer you for MRI at Qscan.
