At the Rhode Island Spine Center we believe
that healthy people generally are not hampered
by spinal problems. Therefore, our approach
is focused not only on rapid relief of pain
but also helping our patients to learn to be
healthier so that this can permeate all
aspects of their lives.
We place our emphasis on the following approaches:
Manipulation and manual therapy - treatment
techniques that have been shown to be among the most
effective for the relief of spinal pain
Rehabilitative exercise that is designed to
improve the overall functional ability of the body
to engage in everyday activities and prevent
future problems
Teaching our patients strategies to
overcome spinal pain
Cooperation with medical physicians and
other specialists in caring for patients
