- Whiplash
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Consider these facts about chronic pain:
Migraines have a global prevalence of about 15% or one billion people. Associated U.S. healthcare costs are estimated at $17 billion, with $15 million in indirect costs such as lost work time! Freedom experts understand the complex nature of headaches and how to treat them. Our cutting edge and evidence assisted treatments will help tame your head pain so you can get back to the things you enjoy.
A staggering number of people experience back pain. Right now roughly 8% of American adults are suffering from chronic low back pain. Why so many? Freedom therapists understand the reasons, which may include poor posture, inflexibility and inadequate muscular support. We offer solutions to manage and prevent chronic back pain, so you can focus on the best things in life.
Nearly 1 in 10 women will experience pelvic pain in their lifetime. And women with pelvic pain are 66% likely to also have orofacial pain, or pain in the jaw and face, often called TMJ. If this is you, Freedom offers help for both problems, under the same roof. Our therapy team includes specialists in Women’s Health and Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) including jaw, face, neck and head pain. Don’t continue to suffer when we can offer a solution!
40% of women suffering from chronic pelvic pain remain undiagnosed after three medical consultations. Women with temporomandibular disorders receive a diagnosis, on average, four years after symptom onset. Don’t wait any longer! Freedom offers treatments for your condition, and will collaborate with your healthcare providers to help you find solutions as quickly as possible.
Research indicates many women with chronic pain have overlapping conditions including pelvic pain, headaches, low back pain and irritable bowel syndrome. Freedom Women’s Health experts specialize in treating all of these conditions.
