As a Bariatric Physician and member of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians, Dr. Kerendian is currently supervising a new sophistication in weight management by providing comprehensive nutritional and medical evaluation, treatment, and strategies for long-term prevention. Since 2006, Dr. Kerendian has helped his patients lose over 55,000 pounds by applying his revolutionary weight loss methodology.
But Dr. Kerendian’s leadership doesn’t stop at weight loss. Dr. Kerendian has established himself as a forward-thinker in pain management as well.
Through the use of an innovative brand of pain treatments including prolotherapy and trigger point injection therapy, Dr. Kerendian has helped hundreds of patients deal with the underlying causes of pain, rather than simply masking pain symptoms. With prolotherapy, Dr. Kerendian is able to stimulate a local inflammatory process around the damaged ligaments and tendons which increases the blood and nutrient supply to areas of pain allowing the tissues to repair themselves naturally.

Should you massage a pulled muscle?
Hi, That is a great question, and who doesn't love a great massage? We like it because it promotes circulation and relaxation to our stiffened muscle fibers. However, it is important to be vigilant as to when to move to the next step if the massage is not improving your issue. There are a multitude of reasons why you have muscle pain, and a multitude more reasons where the muscle isn't the problem and the muscle is hurting or spasming because it's reacting to another issue that your body needs help with such as joint issues, or connective tissue wear and tears or fascia stiffness or others. For this reason, it is important to report to an osteopathic physician who is best of both worlds as a physician with chiropractors' skill sets. Osteopathic Physicians can appropriately diagnose and treat you as a whole rather than concentrate on a specific body part. READ MORE
