Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSKUS)
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSKUS) offers a powerful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions with unparalleled precision and comfort. Unlike traditional imaging methods, MSKUS provides real-time, dynamic visualization of your body’s bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments, allowing for a comprehensive assessment of function and pathology without the need for radiation or contrast agents. This cutting-edge technology is not only cost-effective but also enhances the accuracy of guided interventions like injections and biopsies, leading to better patient outcomes. Whether you’re dealing with tendon issues, joint disorders, muscle injuries, or sports-related conditions, MSKUS helps pinpoint the exact problem, enabling targeted and effective treatment plans tailored to your needs.

AltPoint Percutaneous Needle Electrolysis (PNE)
PNE involves the insertion of a fine needle that delivers a low-intensity electrical current directly to the damaged tissues. This treatment induces controlled inflammation, removing degenerative tissue and stimulating localized healing. The potential benefits of PNE include accelerated tissue repair, reduction of pain, and improved function in patients suffering from chronic and acute musculoskeletal injuries (3, 4).
​
The AltPoint PNE device combines PNE with ultrasound guidance, ensuring precision in targeting damaged tissues and enabling the clinician to monitor tissue healing. This case series examines seven patients treated with AltPoint PNE for various musculoskeletal injuries, with outcomes measured by pain reduction, functional improvement, and ultrasound-confirmed tissue healing. These results provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of this modality.
Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is a cutting-edge treatment modality that offers significant benefits for patients experiencing musculoskeletal pain, injuries, and systemic conditions. By delivering microcurrents with precise frequency pairs, FSM can enhance cellular energy, accelerate metabolism, and promote rapid healing across various tissues, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. This therapy not only reduces pain and inflammation but also has the unique ability to dissolve scar tissue, recalibrate the nervous system, and stimulate the body's natural repair processes for injuries such as those affecting intervertebral discs, meniscus, rotator cuff, and fractures. Additionally, FSM can be used in conjunction with regenerative medicine, improving the effectiveness of treatments like PRP and stem cell therapy, ultimately providing patients with a comprehensive and highly effective approach to recovery and wellness.

Photobiomodulation (Laser Therapy)
Photobiomodulation (Laser Therapy) is a highly effective treatment modality that offers numerous clinical benefits for both orthopedic and neurologic conditions. This non-invasive therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into tissues, promoting cellular regeneration, reducing inflammation, and accelerating the healing process. For orthopedic conditions, Photobiomodulation can significantly enhance the recovery of injuries such as tendinitis, ligament sprains, and muscle strains by improving blood flow and stimulating tissue repair. In neurologic conditions, it helps to alleviate nerve pain, reduce neuropathy symptoms, and support the recovery of nerve function by encouraging cellular repair and decreasing inflammation in affected areas. Patients experiencing chronic pain, acute injuries, or degenerative conditions can benefit from the safe, painless, and effective outcomes provided by Photobiomodulation, leading to improved mobility, reduced discomfort, and a faster return to daily activities.
​
Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
Shockwave Therapy (Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy - ESWT) is a powerful and non-invasive treatment option that offers significant clinical benefits for both orthopedic and neurologic conditions. This therapy uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, effectively treating conditions such as tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and calcific shoulder tendinopathy. For orthopedic conditions, Shockwave Therapy promotes the regeneration of damaged tissues, enhances blood circulation, and breaks down calcium deposits, leading to pain relief and improved function. In neurologic conditions, ESWT can help alleviate chronic pain and support nerve regeneration by reducing inflammation and enhancing cellular repair. Patients dealing with chronic pain, persistent injuries, or degenerative conditions can experience significant relief and faster recovery with Shockwave Therapy, ultimately improving their quality of life and enabling a quicker return to normal activities.

Dry Needling/Acupuncture
Dry needling and acupuncture are highly effective treatment modalities that offer numerous clinical benefits for both orthopedic and neurologic conditions. By targeting specific trigger points and acupuncture points in the body, these techniques help to release muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve overall function. In orthopedic conditions, dry needling and acupuncture can alleviate chronic muscle pain, treat tendinitis, and accelerate the healing of injuries by enhancing blood flow and reducing inflammation. For neurologic conditions, these modalities can help manage nerve pain, reduce symptoms of neuropathy, and support the recovery of nerve function by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. Patients experiencing chronic pain, muscle tightness, or nerve-related conditions can benefit from the precise and targeted approach of dry needling and acupuncture, leading to reduced pain, improved mobility, and a quicker return to daily activities.
​
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy encompasses a range of hands-on techniques, including joint mobilizations, joint manipulations, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (such as the Graston technique), and biomechanical alignment correction, all of which offer significant clinical benefits for treating orthopedic and neurologic conditions. Joint mobilizations and manipulations help restore normal joint function, reduce pain, and improve range of motion by gently moving joints through their natural pathways or applying precise adjustments. The Graston technique, a form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, effectively breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions, promoting tissue healing and reducing pain associated with chronic conditions. Correcting biomechanical alignment addresses the root cause of many musculoskeletal issues, helping to alleviate strain on muscles, joints, and nerves, which can significantly reduce pain and improve overall function. Patients suffering from conditions such as chronic pain, sports injuries, arthritis, and nerve compression can benefit greatly from these targeted manual therapies, leading to enhanced mobility, reduced discomfort, and a faster recovery process.

Balance Testing/Training
Balance testing and training using BTrackS™ offers a highly effective approach to improving balance and stability, particularly for individuals with orthopedic and neurologic conditions. Utilizing advanced technology, including force plates and sophisticated software, BTrackS™ objectively measures key parameters such as sway, weight distribution, and postural stability. This comprehensive assessment provides valuable insights into a patient’s balance abilities, allowing for early detection of balance deficits that may otherwise go unnoticed until they lead to falls or injuries. With these detailed results, personalized intervention strategies can be developed, tailored to address specific needs, whether it's for fall prevention, orthopedic rehabilitation, or managing balance impairments related to neurological conditions like stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or vestibular disorders. Additionally, for athletes, BTrackS™ helps identify subtle balance asymmetries that can impact performance, enabling targeted training to optimize agility, coordination, and power.
