**90% of adults will experience back pain and 67% will have neck pain at some point in their life. These conditions are among the most common reasons for doctor visits and are major causes of disability/lost work days. The majority or back and neck problems do not require surgery; some are self-inflicted due to lifelong bad habits and others are because of accidents, muscle strains and sports injuries. At FCPT, we strongly urge you to have an evaluation at the first sign of symptoms. Seeking treatment early significantly reduces further injury and possible surgery. At FCPT, we specialize in the conservative treatment of the neck and back. We will provide a thorough consultation to determine the source of the problem.** |
Joint/Extremity Pain
 |
**Caused by an injury affecting any of the ligaments, bursae, cartilage, bones or tendons surrounding/within the joint. At FCPT we treat any condition involving pain/injury within the upper and lower extremities.** |
Muscle and Ligament Strains/Sprains
Pre and post Orthopedic Surgery
 |
**Studies show those who rehabilitate prior to a surgical intervention drastically reduce the recovery time and pain intensity following surgery thus increasing a quicker return to prior activities and function. Post surgery rehab is critical in decreasing pain, swelling, scar tissue and missed work hours while increasing range of motion and strength to allow for a speedier return to a functional lifestyle. ** |
Arthritis
 |
**Inflammation of the joint. 100 forms of arthritis that are similar in symptoms. Usually involves damage to or destruction of joint parts (a joint is where two bones connect)** |
Tendonitis
 |
**Inflammation, swelling and irritation of a tendon. Painful condition felt most at the tendon (fibrous band that attaches your muscle to bone) insertion point. Usually a result of overuse.** |
Plantar Fasciitis
 |
**Painful foot condition caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia (thick ligamentous connective tissue that runs from the heel to ball of foot). Worst in morning or if sitting for prolong periods of time and felt usually at bottom of foot. |
Sciatica
 |
** Pain resulting from irritation of sciatic nerve, typically felt fro low back to behind the thigh and radiating below the knee. Usually irritated by a disc pressing on the nerve or disruption/inflammation of the nerve. ** |
Rotator Cuff Injuries
 |
**Group of muscles which work together to provide the shoulder joint with dynamic stability and helping to control the rotation of the joint. Usually a tear of the muscle(s) or inflammation of the structures leads to diagnosis of this condition.** |
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
 |
**Disorder caused by compression at the wrist of the median nerve that supplies the hand, causing numbness and tingling. Median nerve is responsible for sensation and movement in the hand.** |
Vertigo/Vestibular Dysfunctions
 |
