The Integrative Philosophy of RestorePDX
RestorePDX specializes in integrative, regenerative musculoskeletal treatments designed to accelerate healing, relieve pain, maintain whole-body health, and empower you to live a happier, more fulfilling life—all without surgery.
The Intersection of physical medicine, rehabilitation and pain medicine at RestorePDX
Building on the traditional model of musculoskeletal treatment, RestorePDX takes the additional step of partnering with each patient to incorporate lifestyle management into their treatment plan, armed with the knowledge that the vast majority of diseases—musculoskeletal or otherwise—spawn from or are made worse by lifestyle factors.
The Regenerative Spine
Back pain is far and away one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions plaguing Americans today. Whether the result of chronic injury or the effects of aging over time, back pain arises when the floors of your “ Spinescraper” begin to wobble and catalyze degradation in the surrounding anatomical structures of the spine.
The RestorePDX Difference
Our highly-specialized clinic brings together a wide range of medical disciplines and modalities with the singular goal of delivering comprehensive patient care without the typical requirement of visiting numerous facilities across multiple appointments.
