Our protocol is a combination of treatments that can create an increase of needed circulation to the disc, which should allow the spinal disc to heal and repair. The spinal disc is living tissue that has significant mechanisms for self-repair, and this is a proven physiological fact. It is this mechanism that the treatment seeks to tap into with our advanced technology. We use an exclusive, individualized process, utilizing FDA-Cleared medical technology and equipment designed to improve the blood flow and the oxygen/nutrient exchange in the spinal disc…which can give the disc the chance to heal, and in turn, eliminate the pain/numbness associated with your condition.
Acoustic Wave therapies (also know as Shockwave;ESWT;EPAT) are an advanced therapy treatment that utilizes acoustic shockwaves to break up soft tissue calcifications, enhance collagen synthesis, release growth factors, and activate your body’s healing system to reduce pain and help you stay active. This therapy can enhance blood circulation and accelerate the healing of stubborn musculoskeletal conditions in bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles.
High Powered Laser therapy helps relieve pain levels and repair tissue damage, among other valuable therapeutic benefits. By accelerating the healing process with increased circulation and enhanced tissue repair, laser therapy decreases inflammation and pain while allowing tissues to heal. In the management of chronic and acute pain, Select Health is the preferred choice for thousands of patients yearly.
The Infrared-LED Light Technology is designed to stimulate the tissues of the affected area(s) at the cellular level.
The human body is made up of cells that constantly undergo electrical and chemical processes in order for the body to function properly as a whole. These processes go hand-in-hand, propagating or inhibiting each other when necessary. Some examples include: energy production, muscular contractions, and the transmission of nerve signals. At a cellular level, this therapy is ultimately used to stimulate these electrical and chemical processes to relieve pain or prompt nerve tissue healing. Many consider our technology to be similar, but superior to, The Scrambler (Calmare), Hako-Med and/or Sanexas.
Many medical conditions, injuries and some surgeries can cause joint pain and long-term discomfort. To alleviate the pain and protect your body, we at Select Health advise and provide medical braces or supports (commonly referred to as DME). The purpose of medical braces and supports is to reduce the movement of specific body parts to allow them to heal or to prevent further injury or re-injury. Medical support devices are meant to help keep your bones or muscles in proper alignment in order to reduce discomfort and stress on injured or painful body parts while allowing you to move freely.
Conventional medical care is primarily centered on treating symptoms. This works amazingly well for most acute emergent issues. However, if you are one of the millions of people with a chronic illness, conventional care frequently means taking a pill to mask the symptom, often creating side-effects that require additional pills. Integrative Medical Care at Select Health, seeks to understand "why" the underlying problem(s) are causing your symptoms. Once we know why you are suffering, we can begin fixing the problem at the root; unlocking your body's natural ability to heal itself.
In the United States alone, as many as one in three people, age 65 or older, fall each year. The most common cause of falls, include: weak muscles, dizziness, vision problems, side effects from medications and environmental hazards.

Vibration Therapy provides health benefits including, nerve stimulation, stronger muscles, increased bone mass, increased blood flow, increased flexibility as well as stimulating our body’s lymphatic system. In as little as 5 minutes per treatment, Vibration Therapy has aided us for years in expediting the overall healing process of our patients.

Getting a second opinion from another doctor could give you different choices and more information about what to do moving forward. If the second opinion is the same, it could put your mind at ease and reduce your stress. If it is not the same, you can consider your options and have more information to guide your healthcare decision(s). If the first and second opinions differ, you may even consider a third opinion.
Many of the patients we successfully treat in our office came to us because they wanted to avoid surgery or just felt like what they were doing wasn't working. One study in 2011, which focused on back surgeries, concluded that, based on a second opinion, 17.2% of 274 patients with cervical/lumbar complaints seen in first or second opinions over a one year time period, were told they needed "unnecessary" spine surgery. We have knowledge and experience in treating many different conditions. We welcome the opportunity to meet with you in the office and see if we can help.No Matter What You Love Doing...

A lot of people will first think about medications when they think of either chronic health conditions or pain management. The goal of our team at Select Health of the Carolinas is to treat the underlying reason, or source, of the condition(s)that are affecting your quality of life.
Our methods are unique to other forms of care traditionally provided by other health care providers. We use advanced technologies, without the assistance of addicting and habit-forming medications, to actually focus the treatment specifically on the reason or reasons for your symptoms.
Our approach can work because it gets to the real problem and focuses on actual healing, not just symptom treating.
