When you’re expe­ri­enc­ing this type of pain, every­day tasks can become very dif­fi­cult. Dr. Joseph New­ton and Dr. There­sa New­ton are board-cer­ti­fied in Neu­ro­mus­cu­loskele­tal Med­i­cine. Their prac­tice is focused on the diag­no­sis and treat­ment of mus­cu­loskele­tal pain.

When patients come to see them, Drs. Joseph & There­sa New­ton focus on the source of their pain.

Dr. Joseph New­ton explains, ​“For exam­ple, if a patient has back pain we look from their neck to their shoul­ders, back, hips, pelvis, knees, feet, etc. to see what might be con­tribut­ing to the back pain.”

Beyond this eval­u­a­tion, they assess non-struc­tur­al fac­tors such as diet, lifestyle, med­i­cine use, and hor­mone bal­ance, to see if they may play a role in the pain. If need­ed, they offer diag­nos­tic ultra­sound in the office to sup­ple­ment oth­er imag­ing tech­nol­o­gy like x‑ray and MRI.

Once the source or sources of the pain are deter­mined, the doc­tors work with you to form a treat­ment plan.

“We offer all options that may help them. This could include any­thing from tar­get­ed phys­i­cal ther­a­py, manip­u­la­tive med­i­cine, med­ica­tion, steroid injec­tion, vis­co­sup­ple­men­ta­tion, platelets (PRP), stem cells, pro­lother­a­py, nerve blocks, acupunc­ture, refer­ral for epidur­al or surgery, or oth­ers,” Dr. There­sa New­ton shares.

If you are suf­fer­ing from mus­cu­loskele­tal pain, you can sched­ule an ini­tial con­sul­ta­tion. No refer­ral is need­ed. Ini­tial con­sul­ta­tions are ordi­nar­i­ly one hour and fol­low-up appoint­ments are a half-hour to one hour.
