How May We Serve You?

Great Question! Here Is How We Are Different:

1. We Are Mobile, Bringing Expert Care To Your Doorstep Or Via Telehealth, Saving You Time In Getting Ready And Travel Time To A Location. We Save You Money By Decreasing Overall Visits. Our Care Is Laser-Focused One-On-One Care For A Full 60 Minutes.  
2. At A Brick-And-Mortar Clinic And As A Non-Medicare Patient, You May See A Therapist Or Chiropractor For Maybe 20 Minutes Before Being Handed Off To Somebody Who Is Not Qualified To Provide Care Outside Of Passive Care (Ice, E-Stim, Ultrasound, Laser). Either Way, You’re Not Learning How To Proactively Get Better To The Fullest Extent, Which Ultimately Determines When It Is Appropriate For Any Treatment  To Be Stopped. Less Focused Care Equals More Visits And More Of Your Money Being Spent. Because You Were Not Thoroughly Taught How To Be Independent To Prevent Re-Injury, You Will Spend More Money In The Future On The Same Issue.
3. Our Goal Is To Get You Back To Life As Quickly As Possible By Teaching You How To Be Independent Starting Day 1. Your Body Can Heal Itself If Given The Right Exercises And Guidance. Instead Of Fishing For You, We Teach You How To Fish.

Mobile Spine Specialist Encourages You To See Your Doctor If You Have Any Doubts About Your Condition. That Being Said, Here Is A List Of Scenarios Where You Should Seek Out A Physician Immediately If Any Of The Below Are Occurring With Spinal Pain:

After An Injury, We Often Seek A Label On The Structure Causing The Problem Because The Unknown Is Worrisome.  Unfortunately, What We See On Imaging Does Not Necessarily Point To The Structural Cause. 

Pain Can Come From Muscles, Tendons, Ligaments, Bones, Blood Vessels, Discs, Or Any Structure Supplied By Nerves.  Chronic Pain Lasting 3-6 Months Can Even Cause Changes To Your Nervous System, Making You Feel Pain With Normal Movements.  Any Random Person May Have Abnormal Findings (Disc Bulges, Rotator Cuff Tears, Arthritis) On An Imaging Exam Such As An X-Ray Or MRI, But At The Same Time, Express They Have No Pain. 

We Provide You With The Most Important Finding. Can Your Pain Be Resolved Effectively, Conservatively, And Quickly In As Little As 1-3 Visits Through Methodical Testing.  Imaging Only Tells Part Of The Story.  A Physical Therapy Exam Helps Fill In The Gaps.

Dizziness Is Often A General Term Used To Described Vertigo (The Feeling That Your Visual Environment Is Spinning) Or Imbalance (Feeling As If You Are “Tipsy” Or Intoxicated Without The Intake Of Alcohol Or Certain Medications).  Many Reasons Can Cause It, But If You Are Experiencing Any Of The Following With Dizziness, You Need To Seek A Physician Right Away:

• After An Episode Of Physical Trauma To The Head (If It Just Happened, Seek Emergency Services)
• Repeated Episodes Of Nausea Or Vomiting
• Signs Of Infection: Chills, Fever, Achiness, Malaise
• Feelings Of Fainting, Actual Fainting, Or Inability To Walk For Even Less Than A Day
• Heart Palpitations With Shortness Of Breath
• Loss Of Ability To Activate The Muscles Of Your Face, An Asymmetry Between The Two Sides Of Your Face
• Fullness Feeling Of The Ear, Ringing Of Your Ears, And/Or Loss Of Hearing

If Dizziness, Nausea, Or Vomiting Are Brought On Consistently With The Same Head Movements Or Same Change In Positions, And They Last Less Than A Minute, Feel Free To Schedule An Appointment With Mobile Spine Specialist Right Away. 

There Is A High Likelihood We Can Offer Resolution In 1-3 Visits.  If You Are Still Not Sure What To Do, Call Us To Discuss Your Situation.
