What Your Visit Looks Like
A consultation in English and a doctor’s exam, then a clear plan.
If the doctor recommends treatment, it starts right then.
Calming the Pain
Steroid-free injections of lidocaine diluted in saline to release the tissue that’s locked up and hurting.
Fixing What Caused It
Acute pain may be related to how you move. One-on-one PT and movement correction address movement patterns with the aim of reducing the risk of pain returning next month.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really be seen today?
Same-day care is available. Please call or walk in without an appointment. Patients with appointments are seen first, so the wait may be longer. Reception closes at 19:00 on weekdays and 13:00 on Saturdays.
What should I do for the pain until my visit?
Keep moving gently, whatever feels tolerable, and put a warm compress on the painful area or take a warm shower. Try not to stay in one position too long.
When is back or neck pain an emergency?
Go to an emergency department instead if you have loss of bladder or bowel control, rapidly worsening weakness or numbness in a limb, or pain with fever. Those need emergency evaluation, not an outpatient clinic.
