Integrity is the essence of everything successful

-R. Buckminster Fuller (inventor of tensegrity – tension + integrity)

Do you understand the diagnosis you’ve been given?

Do you have a comprehensive plan to address it?

We often search the internet for solutions to our problems; we search for treatments to disease in a sea of specialists.

What if there was another path; a path that took the time to contemplate how the systems in the body work together to coordinate healing?

I’ll tell you all the tools I have, and the conditions I often treat, but, to anyone who is taking the time to read this message, the most important thing is that we take the time to explore the problems you’re experiencing, and co-create a plan; we then modify that plan in accordance with the results.

In rehabilitation, it is common that two people with the “same” diagnosis respond differently to the same treatment. Though they may have the “same” diagnosis, their lives are not the same; they have different traumas, different habits, and certainly different beliefs (something we never seem to ask about in medicine).

If what you’ve just read sounds like something that you’re interested in exploring, continue reading and you will understand that which I hold dear.

 

To find health should be the object of the doctor.
Anyone can find disease.

-A.T. Still (founder of osteopathic medicine)

Comprehensive Rehabilitation Programs

Dr. Mignosa is a Board Certified Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation  Physician with a Focus on Movement for Life, from Frailty and Falls, to Performance through: 

Regenerative Medicine: Platelet Rich Plasma & Stem Cells & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Traditional Osteopathic Medicine: Autonomic Balance

Biomechanics: Optimal Movement Patterns from Beginning to End

Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine uses biological treatments that stimulate the immune system to heal connective tissue damage that has failed to heal with time. Patients will often be sore in the window after treatment. This window is used as an opportunity to gently correct the orthopedic and neurological imbalances.

Physical Osteopathic Medicine & Rehabilitation

Osteopathic physicians complete rigorous medical training and complete the same multi-year residency programs as MD’s before being fully licensed to practice. In addition, a select group of DOs use hands-on medicine, continuing to study and advance in the specialty of osteopathic manual medicine.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation integrates with Osteopathy to evaluate and treat the physical body objectively addressing specific imbalances in posture and movement to restore function.

The goal of any medical treatment is to offer your body resources, whether that be manipulation with my hands, a prescription drug, or surgery. The resources I offer work with, and bolster, the natural forces within your own body to find health. I am mindful of the vital importance of addressing subtle abnormalities that have large effect on overall. Many patients experience changes after the first appointment while others, especially those with chronic long-term issues, may require multiple visits.

If you are to enroll in a program that will help you to navigate the whole picture of health schedule an appointment here.

What is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative Medicine is not FDA approved. As such it is considered an experimental treatment at this point in time and is not covered by health insurance. Despite the challenges, the theology of why using stem cells, platelet rich plasma and other biologics provides a logical opportunity for patients who have been resistant to healing with traditional approaches. More importantly, the use of biologics is just one part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program that addresses both tissue damage, neurological imbalance, and immune system function. 

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy works by finding and working with the health in each patient, no matter how serious their illness. If there is life, somewhere in the system there is health. The three core principles of osteopathy are:

  1. The body is one indivisible unit.

  2. The body’s structure and function are interrelated. 

  3. The body’s natural desire is to go towards health, to self-heal, and to self-regulate if given adequate resources.

 

 

What is Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS)?

DNS is an advanced rehabilitation tool to evaluated and treat the coordination of the body. It takes into account developmental abnormalities, past injuries, and dysfunctional movement patterns to find opportunities to improve balance, posture, and movement. The three foundational elements of DNS are:

  1. Re-training a neutral spine.

  2. Coordinating limb motion with core stability.

  3. Integrating stability and mobility of the limbs for graceful movement.

Cost of Services:

Stem Cells and Platelet Rich Plasma are not covered by insurance.

The amount of biologics recommended is based-upon the ailment with orthopedic (joint) pathology often being less expensive and neurological (stroke/brain injury) being more expensive.

A typical regenerative medicine treatment costs between $500 to $8,000.

Consultations and follow-up visits cost between $200-$450. This fee is paid at time of visit by the patient and we submit the bill to directly the insurance companies; the patient is reimbursed directly by their insurance. The process of reimbursement often takes 4 weeks. Many PPO insurances generously reimburse for this service, but HMO insurances do not.

The goal of rehabilitation is to slow the progression of disease, stabilize the body, and achieve functional gains. Such a lofty goal demands resources (in the form of treatment) and education (in the form of guidance). One of my patients, my friend, said it best: “Patience is not waiting; it’s waiting with a good attitude.” Patience and continuity of care are the bricks that build the foundation of successful outcomes. If this is something you desire, schedule a consultation today.

I hope this message finds you well, and wherever you go, I hope you find health.
