Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA)
Are you suffering from excruciating back pain or do you live with muscle stiffness? Have you tried many treatments without acceptable results? Manipulation Under Anesthesia or MUA, is a type of therapy that can help your back pain treatment.
Manipulation Under Anesthesia has been around since the late 1930's. Scar tissue is formed as a result of muscular injury. These injuries form Fibroblastic Adhesions. These adhesions limit flexibility and create muscle stiffness. The scar tissue looks like a string stretched tight with olive oil all beaded up on it. MUA breaks these beads loose, also known as adhesions. MUA is performed 3 times throughout a 3 day period. The process takes about 20 minutes each day. When MUA is administered, it sounds like popcorn as the adhesions are broken loose. MUA procedures are thousands of dollars less than traditional surgery and other more invasive treatments. There is no pain resulting from this process and most insurance covers this procedure. Countless recent case studies and medical research continues to show that M.U.A. is widely regarded as safe and effective and is gaining acceptance by the medical community at large.
Thd Doctors of Accident Medical & Chiropractic Pain Centers apply a multidisciplinary approach to the practice and also work in treating the following conditions:
- Myofascial Release
- Physical Therapy
- Pinched Nerves
- Leg Pain
- Sciatica
- Nutrition
- Arthritis
- Osteoporosis
- Trigeminal Neuralgia Headaches
- Fibromyalgia
- Herniated/Bulging Discs
- Whiplash
- Chronic Muscle Spasm
- Long Term Musculoskeletal Pain
The anesthesiologist uses a non-addicting anesthesia which wears off in approximately half an hour. He also provides transportation to and from the MUA center and hotel accommodations are available. During an MUA procedure, the spinal areas (cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum and hips) are all adjusted along with aggressive stretching of the shoulders, wrists, and ankles. Please contact the office to find out if your insurance covers the procedure. Dr. Goldberg's patients report that they feel younger and much more flexible after this procedure.
