Leg Pain and Treatment

Leg pain can result from an injury or a medical condition. When you come to our office, you will receive an examination and an evaluation. We will get as much information on an injury you may have had or an illness that may be the cause of the pain. Our chiropractor will explain your treatment options, then devise a personalized treatment plan created just for you.

Some of the options we utilize for leg pain include the Active Release Technique. This is a state-of-the-art soft tissue movement massage technique. It treats issues with muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia and nerves. Leg pain encompasses all of these, and our main objective is finding the reason you are having pain in your leg.

For some leg pain, depending on the cause and the effect on the leg, we may recommend our interferential electrical muscle stimulation or moist heat therapy. Many factors can cause pain in the leg, but having a treatment plan devised by our chiropractors can greatly help reduce the pain while also finding the root cause.

We also instruct our patients on how to do corrective exercises in the privacy and comfort of their own homes to help reduce pain. Dr. Gerard Smith and Dr. Don Wallace provide expert care for our patients in Smithtown, and West Islip, NY, and they welcome new patients.
