CHIROPRACTIC
Chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. It is concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the nervous system and on general health. There is an emphasis on manual treatments, including spinal manipulation.
TeleConsultation
Via phone or Zoom Dr. Kertz will evaluate and offer opinions on issues of a performance related nature, either specific, such as how to avoid back pain, hand/wrist pain, shoulder pain, etc., or from an injury prevention perspective, taking the whole individual into consideration, examining posture, diet, routine, stretching, breathing, etc., and formulating plans and strategies moving forward. Teleconsults can be one time or recurring depending on need.
Teleconsultations are also available for ergonomics, and product development and promotion, including video, for the music industry and beyond. See Dr. Kertz’s YouTube channel, drkertztv, for some clients and examples. Contact us for details.
