We are specially trained in sacroiliac subluxations and have years of experience in treating them successfully. These symptoms overlap with others and as such this can be a misdiagnosed issue for many patients. If you aren’t sure if you are suffering from this, we have a few easy tests that we can preform in the office to determine if you have a subluxation in your sacroiliac joint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most common symptoms are lower back pain and the following sensations in the lower extremity: pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, pelvis\/buttock pain, hip\/groin pain, feeling of leg instability (buckling, giving way), disturbed sleep patterns, disturbed sitting patterns (unable to sit for long periods, sitting on one side), pain going from sitting to standing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Arrow_Up.png?resize=512%2C512&ssl=1\")

This condition affects the sciatic nerve which is a large nerve that extends from lower back towards the back of the legs. The sciatic nerve gets compressed or pinched due to several factors, causing debilitating pain and unrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have treated sciatica many patients since we started this practice, so it’s hard to pick one to highlight, but we are proud to say we have had positive outcomes for each and every one that finished the treatment protocol! Many have returned to being pain free or reduced their pain to the point of non-interference with daily life. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRotator Cuff<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Shoulder_Icon_128.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint, keeping the head of the upper arm bone firmly within the shallow socket of the shoulder. A rotator cuff injury can cause a dull ache in the shoulder that worsens at night, and commonly increase with age. These injuries may occur earlier in people who have jobs that require repeatedly performing overhead motions, such as painters and carpenters<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nParkinson’s<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Brain_Icon_128.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

Parkinson’s disease is a brain disorder that causes unintended or uncontrollable movements, such as shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination. There is no cure and many of the treatments are not effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of our greatest successes is a Parkinson’s patient that has regained nearly all motor control, balance, has almost no muscle soreness, sleeps nearly normally, and is able to live a very normal life over 10 years after the diagnosis. The patient was dedicated to the treatments, and as this is not a cure, they have come back regularly for maintenance treatments. The initial protocol was 40 weeks and is an intensive one, but it has been worth it for them as they can ride a bike, cook, swim and do all the things they did before the diagnosis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNeck Pain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Neck_128_Icon-1.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

The human neck constitutes spinal bones, different muscles, and other tissues and is the start of the spinal cord. The spinal column surrounds and protects the spinal cord, which contains a long thin chain of nervous tissue. The neck provides high mobility and supports the load of the head, due to this the neck is at risk of injury and damage due to its high daily engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A herniated disc causes severe back pain with a feeling of numbness in various body parts. Are you suffering from this problem and in need of a non-surgical herniated disc treatment? It\u2019s completely possible to get rid of this debilitating pain with non-invasive laser pain therapy. Through laser pain therapy, you can get relief from pain and the disc might not degenerate further. Laser pain therapy not only relieves pain but also promotes healing process and decreases inflammation.. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Lugo Clinic we combine our manual therapy techniques with Laser therapy to speed up the healing process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTennis\/Golf Elbow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Elbow_pain_Icon_128.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

Tennis\/Golf elbow is a very pain-causing condition that results due to overload on the tendons of the elbows. These elbow tendons usually get torn or injured by repetitive movement of arm and wrist muscles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commonly, people who do repetitive motions like; carpenters, painters, golfers, butchers, and certain sports players are at high risk of developing tennis elbow because their work requires repetitive motions of the hands and arms for a prolonged time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlantar Fasciitis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Foot_Pain_Icon_New_128.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

The plantar fascia has a shape of a \u201cbowstring\u201d that supports the arch of the foot. It is responsible for the task of absorbing shock as we walk around. Increased tension on the arch can result in \u201csmall tears\u201d in the fascia, then even a little stress can cause inflammation in the fascia.
It is often the reason behind painful sensations in the bottom of the foot closer to the heel. Pain is often worse initially but gets reduced as we take a few steps after waking up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOsteoarthritis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Hand_Pain_New_Icon_128.png?resize=128%2C128&ssl=1\")

It is one of the most common kinds of arthritis that has affected millions of people around the globe and is the most common long lasting (chronic) joint condition. It is common to find osteoarthritis in elderly. It is a leading cause of disability these days.
Osteoarthritis can develop on any joint of the body. Osteoarthritis affects the hands, feet, spine, and the large weight-bearing joints, such as the hips and knees. Management of osteoarthritis is possible with laser therapy, however the joint damage can never be restored.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lugoclinic.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/cznmcy1wcml2yxrll3jhd3bpegvsx2ltywdlcy93zwjzaxrlx2nvbnrlbnqvbhivchg4njg5njktaw1hz2uta3d2dxy5njquanbn.jpg?resize=1300%2C867&ssl=1\")
