Pain
Management and Rehabilitation for Keyport, NJ
Currently
known to local residents as ‘the pearl of the bayshore,’
Keyport, NJ has been the bearer of many names over its four centuries
of history: the ‘fishing point,’ ‘mechanicsville,’
and ‘key port.’ The last of these owes to the town’s
history of sea-faring ways and boatbuilding, professions which affect
the longstanding character of the town’s residents to this
day.
Monmouth
Pain and Rehabilitation provides an essential and revolutionary
service for Keyport residents– effective pain
management without the heavy use of drugs and without
surgery. We’re looking to the future in finding ways to
help patients overcome painful injuries, conditions, and illnesses
without inflicting further damage on the body (and thereby allowing
for years of better health in general).
Even
better, we’re doing this in a way that makes the pain management
and rehabilitation process easier for patients. We provide your
medical doctor, physical therapist, chiropractor, and acupuncturist
in one location. There is no further need to drive from one rehab
office to the next, often with mixed results and disjointed treatment
plans. Our team works together as a cohesive unit to provide thoughtful,
well-planned, and effective programs of rehabilitation and pain
management for the following conditions:
Because
we offer acupuncture, we also are
able to help boost immunity and fight respiratory illnesses; overcome
anxiety and stress; and fight pain without
drugs.
Our
staff includes physicians who specialize in Physical Medicine and
Rehabilitation; such specialists are experts in the resolution and
rehabilitation of the conditions listed above. Additionally, our
physicians offer a number of minimally invasive, interventional
techniques, the majority of which are performed right in our pain
management office. In many cases, these procedures allow patients
to find pain relief without relying on drugs. These include:
• Epidural Steroid
Injections: By injecting a long-lasting steroid in
the epidural space, patients can find serious, localized relief
from Lower
Back Pain; Arthritis;
Degenerative
Disc Disease; Disc
Injury; Leg Pain; Numbness
and/or Tingling; and many other conditions.
•
Joint
Injections: Facet
Joint Injections in the neck, upper back, or lower back (the
cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spines, respectively) can help relieve
neck and back pain related to arthritis or mechanical problems.
Sacroiliac Joint Injections
are especially helpful for patients with lower back pain related
to the sacroiliac joint. Image-guided Peripheral Joint Injections
may be used for patients with tendonitis or arthritis affecting
the shoulder, elbow, or knee joints.
•
Viscosupplementation: For knee
pain and osteoarthritis in the knees, viscosupplementation works
by replacing lost fluid, thereby providing much-needed lubrication
to allow the bones of the knee joint to move smoothly over each
other and to provide better shock absorption.
Our
medical team also administers Trigger
Point Injections, Sympathetic
Blocks, Radiofrequency
Ablation, and Discograms.
Physical
Therapy for Keyport, NJ
The
key to any successful plan of rehabilitation or pain management
is to target the cause of pain and/or disability. Physical therapy,
using therapeutic
exercise programs and other methods of enhancing the healing
process, is a big part of this effort. Physical therapy is meant
to help patients begin heal, reduce pain, and regain movement and
strength. Many of these issues are both physical and have a social
component as pain and disability affect every aspect of life.
Our
physical therapy department provides the above-mentioned therapeutic
exercise (in some cases incorporating our newly-expanded selection
of PowerPlate
whole body vibration machines) as well as laser therapy, electrotherapy,
spinal decompression, and ultrasound.
Chiropractors
and Keyport, NJ Pain Sufferers
It’s
important to note that the human body cannot be separated into distinct
areas of functioning. Because all areas of health of are intertwined,
it’s important to address one of the most crucial parts of
wellness: the health of the nervous system. The nervous system is
responsible for directing all of the activities of the body. When
issues within the spine interfere with the normal functioning of
the nervous system, pain and general havoc will reign within the
body.
The
chiropractors at Monmouth Pain and Rehabilitation work to ensure
that all interferences (or subluxations) within the spine are addressed.
Our office specializes in a type of chiropractic known as Chiropractic
BioPhysics. This type of chiropractic care is concerned with the
health of the entire spine/musculoskeletal system in order to promote
the wellness of the entire body and relieve pain.
Acupuncture
In
order to provide truly well-rounded pain management and rehabilitation,
we strive to find ways to address every aspect of patient care,
including the physical, emotional, and social. Acupuncture is a
time-tested, ancient method of relieving pain and dealing with negative
emotional states. Monmouth Pain and Rehabilitation is proud to be
combining the very newest and best in medical pain management with
Acupuncture for Keyport patients.
