What Is a Back Problems Consultation?

A Back Problems consultation helps identify the underlying cause of discomfort, stiffness, movement limitation, or radiating nerve pain. Providers assess posture, movement patterns, functional limits, and neurological signs to understand whether symptoms are caused by muscle strain, joint dysfunction, disc problems, structural abnormalities, injury, or chronic inflammatory conditions.

The goal is to relieve pain, improve mobility, prevent worsening symptoms, and ensure safe next steps tailored to your unique condition.

What We Review During Your Consultation:
  • General back discomfort, stiffness, or reduced flexibility
  • Muscle spasms, strain, or overuse injuries
  • Radiating nerve symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or sciatica
  • Work, lifting, or sports-related injuries
  • Chronic back concerns including arthritis or degenerative changes
  • Red-flag symptoms requiring urgent or advanced evaluation
  • Treatment options and imaging recommendations
