Why Joint & Musculoskeletal Pain Deserves Specialized Care
Muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and connective tissues are in constant motion and under stress. Over time—or after injury—they wear down, misalign, or develop chronic inflammation. Left unchecked, those issues cascade into weaker movement patterns, compensatory strain, and secondary pain zones.
Typical approaches (rest, pills, passive therapy) often manage symptoms. We aim deeper: diagnosing root imbalances, guiding your body’s repair, and restoring durability—so pain becomes the past, not the plan.
We start with movement analysis, imaging, and biomechanical evaluation to pinpoint the precise tissues and patterns at fault.
Targeted Interventions
Injections, neuromodulation, nerve blocks, or biologic therapies—selected only when they serve your bigger mobility goals.
Regenerative Therapies
PRP, stem-cell adjuncts, and shockwave protocols help reignite healing at the tissue level—less degeneration, more rebuilding.
Movement & Load Optimization
What you do after treatment matters. We guide you through functional rehab, strengthening, and movement retraining to lock in results.
What Treatment Can Do For You
Reduced pain, often within a few sessions
Greater range of motion
Less stiffness and joint grinding
Fewer flare-ups, fewer “bad days”
Less reliance on pain meds or surgery

Thank goodness I found Dr. Farnad. I was in excruciating pain due to back problems and after receiving an MRI, was told I needed to see a spinal surgeon. I was referred to Dr. Farnad, and when I called his office Eva was SO kind and accomplishing. They could tell how much pain and agony I was in, and made it possible for me to come in the same day. Dr. Farnad was very knowledgeable and immediately pinpointed the issue. He answered all of my questions and had great bedside manner. If you want to feel like a priority and get quick answers, I definitely recommend coming to Dr. Farnad.
