Diagnosis

Why Is Orthopedic Medicine The Best Choice For Me?

An orthodpaedic medical diagnosis is the best choice for people who suffer from musculoskeletal problems. Dr. Thomas Peterson received medical training in orthopaedic medicine, which is used to diagnose your problem at its root cause.

Orthopaedic Medicine recognizes that you may be experiencing pain somewhere other than from its primary source. This is called referred pain. For example, you may feel pain in your lower arm that is actually caused by a problem in your neck. Rather than treating your lower arm and providing temporary relief, we treat your pain at the source, so you experience healing that lasts.

Once I Get My Orthopaedic Diagnosis, What Happens?

Once your diagnosis is determined, we develop a treatment plan that gets to the cause of your problems; rather than just treating your symptoms with drugs that simply mask the underlying problem.

ESOMC’s Orthopaedic Medical treatment plan may include:

• Osteopathic Manual Therapy
• Prolotherapy
• Medical Acupuncture

Our goal is to restore you to your maximum level of functioning.
