I have a slight pain in my elbows and I don’t understand what is causing it. What should I do?
A small pain in both elbows without any recent trauma or overuse would worry me a bit that something not related to your elbows may be a problem. I would start with seeing your PCP for evaluation, possible blood tests, review of any medications, etc. Dr. Simone READ MORE
What is electrical stimulation?
Many of us have and continue the use of EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) primarily to help rehab damaged muscles. More recent research has shown not much benefit and it is better to provide specific massage therapy and focused stretches and exercises to help get things back to normal. United Health Care recently said they will not pay for the therapy due to the research. That being said, I have personally seen some relief using it when people have very severe muscle spasms but I have used it probably once on those patients and then, with my advice and other treatment, don't need it again. Hope that helps, Dr. Simone READ MORE
How does spinal manipulation work?
Spinal manipulation, as defined by modern chiropractors, is a procedure to try to restore motion to joints that are restricted - - due to many possibilities. Restricted joints often cause pain in the joints themselves or cause pain in the ligaments and /or muscles near the joint. But spinal manipulation is often a small part of what a modern chiropractor does to treat ailments. READ MORE

Can a chiropractor help me with a pain in the back of my thigh?
Yes, but I would recommend you see one who practices sports chiropractic. The ACA Sports Council has a list of specialists on their website at http://www.acasc.org/ Good luck, Dr. Simone READ MORE
I have a frozen shoulder. What should I do?
This is a really tough disorder to treat. It usually takes a lot of time. Physical therapy and acupuncture appear to shorten the time from my experience. But, again, a really tough one--one I've suffered from. Dr. Simone READ MORE
Experiencing numbness and pain after elbow fracture treatment. Why is this happening?
Hi, sorry to hear that. If it is soon after the fracture, you have to be concerned about swelling and pressure on the nerve(s). If there was surgery, you have to worry about swelling, but also trauma to the nerve during surgery. Regardless, you don't want this to go on. Either go back to your doctor or get a second opinion. Dr. Simone READ MORE
Why does my back feel sore?
That happens quite frequently due to normal disc degeneration in the lower back. The joints will move closer together due to the degeneration and that may cause pain. Often, sleeping with a pillow under the knees will decrease the pain. It is best to sleep on your side with a pillow under your head, hugging one and having one between the knees.
