Shoulder pain, often caused by osteoarthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, rotator cuff injuries, dislocation, or repetitive stress, can make it difficult to perform even basic daily tasks. It might be felt as sharp pain, aching, loss of mobility, or deep soreness that worsens with arm movement. In New Kensington, shoulder pain is a common reason for seeking care, especially among those active in community sports, manual work, or home projects. Optilux Wellness Center's approach to shoulder pain includes hands-on chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, regenerative medicine therapies, and supportive modalities like massage therapy. By addressing inflammation and nerve pressure, restoring joint function, and supporting tissue healing, our practitioners help resolve pain at the source and enable patients to return to their normal routines.
Back pain is a common complaint, affecting up to 80 percent of Americans at some point in their lives. It can manifest as aching, stiffness, or sharp discomfort and often results from a combination of factors such as arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, muscle strains, ligament injuries, tendonitis, bursitis, bulging discs, scoliosis, or spinal misalignment. Back pain can disrupt daily activities, hamper sleep, and make it hard to work, exercise, or enjoy life. Treatment options for back pain at Optilux Wellness Center include chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, and regenerative medicine therapies like cell therapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections. These approaches help restore alignment, reduce pressure on nerves, decrease inflammation, and support the body's own healing mechanisms, often providing meaningful and lasting relief that enables patients to return to what matters most.
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine, often forming an S or C shape when viewed from behind. It can develop in childhood, adolescence, or as a result of other conditions like muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy. Common signs include uneven shoulders or hips, reduced range of motion, pain, and fatigue after long periods of standing or walking. Scoliosis often affects quality of life, making it more difficult to participate in athletic, work, or daily activities in New Kensington. Chiropractic care offers a non-surgical, non-invasive strategy for managing the discomfort and mobility limitations associated with scoliosis. Treatments at Optilux Wellness Center focus on relieving pain, improving spinal alignment, and enhancing flexibility, allowing individuals with scoliosis to live more comfortably and confidently.
Arm and leg pain can stem from many causes, including nerve compression, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis or golfer's elbow, sciatica, repetitive stress injuries, sprains, strains, or degenerative joint issues. Symptoms may include sharp, shooting pains, numbness, tingling, or weakness—often radiating from the spine down the limbs. For many in New Kensington, these symptoms can make daily tasks, work, or hobbies like gardening or sports more difficult and frustrating. Treatment at Optilux Wellness Center focuses on relieving not just the immediate symptoms but also addressing the underlying sources of arm and leg pain. Chiropractic care, decompression therapy, and regenerative medicine protocols help improve nerve function, reduce inflammation, and support healing for lasting relief.
Neck pain is a frequent concern that affects people of all ages and lifestyles. Common causes include misaligned vertebrae, osteoarthritis, poor posture, bursitis, tendonitis, pinched or compressed nerves, whiplash, and muscle strains or sprains. Symptoms can range from a dull ache and stiffness to sharp pain that radiates into the upper back or arms, sometimes accompanied by headaches or restricted range of motion. For many, neck pain can make it difficult to drive, work at a computer, enjoy local activities, or even get restful sleep. Treatment options at Optilux Wellness Center in New Kensington include chiropractic adjustments to realign vertebrae, improve blood flow, and reduce inflammation; massage therapy to relieve muscle tension; and regenerative medicine therapies such as cell therapy or PRP injections for persistent or severe neck conditions. These approaches support natural healing, reduce the need for medication, and help restore lasting mobility and comfort.
Headaches and migraines are recurring conditions that can cause significant discomfort, sensitivity to light and sound, blurred vision, difficulty concentrating, and even nausea. They often stem from tension, inflammation of neck tissues, misaligned vertebrae, or overuse injuries such as 'text neck.' These symptoms can interfere with daily activities, work, and social life, making it challenging to participate in New Kensington's community events or family gatherings. Optilux Wellness Center addresses the root causes of headaches and migraines with chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, corrective exercises, and lifestyle recommendations. By restoring alignment, easing muscle tension, and reducing nerve irritation, these treatments can decrease the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines while supporting long-term wellness.
