This is why Dr. Stubbs takes the time to find out what movements or positions aggravate your pain, and the positions or movements make it better. We take that information and, with a thorough orthopedic and neurological evaluation, including any necessary imaging to develop a treatment plan specific to the individual. Our treatment plans are designed for you with attention to your lifestyle, work responsibilities, and hobbies.
