Treatment Protocols:
-
A patient can be a candidate for MUA when the 6-8 weeks of conservative care in your office has not produced the desired results.
-
The patient will then undergo the MUA procedure daily for 3-5 consecutive days. This procedure is performed in a hospital or ambulatory outpatient surgery center.
-
Post MUA treatment in your office includes adjustments and therapy daily for 7-10 days followed by 2-3 times a week for 2-3 weeks. Concluding with 3-6 weeks of rehabilitation therapy
When protocols are followed and patient selection criteria has been met, the results are extremely gratifying.
