Physical medicine focuses on helping the body move better, function better, and recover more effectively. At Injury Care Centers, our physical medicine services are designed for patients dealing with pain, stiffness, limited mobility, muscle tightness, injury recovery, and ongoing discomfort.
Rather than focusing only on temporary symptom relief, physical medicine looks at how the spine, joints, muscles, nerves, and movement patterns may be contributing to pain or reduced function. From there, our team can help create a care plan designed around each patient’s condition, symptoms, and recovery goals.
With locations throughout Jacksonville and North Florida, Injury Care Centers offers a range of physical medicine services, including interventional pain management, chiropractic care, spinal decompression, stretch therapy, physical therapy, EMS therapy, and ultrasound therapy.
Physical medicine is a healthcare approach focused on improving movement, reducing pain, restoring function, and supporting recovery. It may be helpful for patients who are dealing with pain after an injury, pain that has developed over time, or mobility issues that make daily activities more difficult.
At Injury Care Centers, physical medicine may include hands-on treatment, therapeutic movement, spinal care, muscle stimulation, decompression therapy, stretching, and other supportive services. The goal is to help patients move with more comfort, improve function, and return to daily life with greater confidence.
Physical medicine may be used for many types of pain and movement-related concerns, including back pain, neck pain, joint pain, disc-related symptoms, muscle tightness, soft tissue injuries, sprains, strains, and post-injury recovery.
At Injury Care Centers, physical medicine brings together several treatment options that may be used alone or as part of a larger care plan.
Interventional pain management focuses on identifying and treating sources of pain through targeted medical care. This may be helpful for patients with ongoing pain, spine-related discomfort, nerve-related symptoms, or pain that has not improved with conservative care alone.
Our team can help determine whether interventional pain management may be appropriate based on your symptoms, history, imaging, and treatment goals.

Chiropractic care focuses on spinal function, alignment, mobility, and nervous system support. It may be helpful for patients dealing with back pain, neck pain, headaches, stiffness, and movement limitations.
At Injury Care Centers, chiropractic care may be part of a personalized plan to help reduce discomfort, improve mobility, and support better body mechanics.

Spinal decompression is a non-surgical therapy option designed to gently reduce pressure on the spine. It may be used for certain patients with back pain, neck pain, disc-related symptoms, sciatica-like symptoms, or nerve-related discomfort.
This therapy may be recommended when the goal is to relieve pressure, support spinal mobility, and help patients manage symptoms without immediately turning to more invasive options.

Stretch therapy focuses on improving flexibility, reducing muscle tightness, and supporting better movement. It may be helpful for patients who feel stiff, restricted, or limited during normal activities.
Stretch therapy can also support recovery, mobility, posture, and overall wellness when used as part of a broader physical medicine plan.

Physical therapy helps patients rebuild strength, improve mobility, restore function, and recover after injuries or painful conditions. It may include therapeutic exercises, movement training, strengthening, stretching, and guided rehabilitation.
Physical therapy may be helpful for patients recovering from sports injuries, sprains, strains, joint pain, back pain, neck pain, and mobility limitations.

EMS therapy, or electrical muscle stimulation, uses gentle electrical impulses to help stimulate muscles. It may be used to support muscle activation, reduce tightness, improve circulation, and assist with recovery.
EMS therapy may be included in a care plan for patients dealing with muscle spasms, soreness, stiffness, or injury-related discomfort.

Ultrasound therapy uses sound wave energy to support soft tissue recovery and comfort in targeted areas. It may be used for muscle pain, joint stiffness, soft tissue irritation, and injury recovery.
When appropriate, ultrasound therapy may be included as part of a broader physical medicine plan to help support healing and mobility.

Physical medicine may be helpful for patients experiencing pain, stiffness, weakness, or limited movement due to injury, overuse, posture, repetitive stress, accidents, or chronic conditions.

Every patient’s pain is different. That is why our team evaluates your symptoms, discusses your goals, and helps determine which physical medicine services may be appropriate for your condition.
Understanding the source of pain can be an important part of building the right care plan. Injury Care Centers offers diagnostic imaging services, including digital X-ray and MRI services, when imaging is clinically appropriate.
X-rays may help evaluate certain bone, joint, and alignment concerns. MRI services may help provide more detailed information about soft tissue, discs, nerves, and other structures.
When needed, imaging can help our team better understand your condition and guide the next step in your care.

Physical medicine may also work alongside our non-surgical pain relief options, including Biotarget Therapy. While physical medicine focuses on movement, function, spinal care, stretching, therapy, and rehabilitation-style support, Biotarget Therapy includes advanced modalities such as HEIT therapy, laser therapy, shockwave therapy, and TECAR therapy.
For some patients, combining physical medicine with advanced non-surgical pain relief therapies may help support recovery, improve mobility, and address painful problem areas from multiple angles.
