Conditions We Treat
Care for the Pain That's Holding You Back
From a stiff neck to a disc injury to an ankle that never fully recovered - these are the problems we evaluate and manage every day at Remedy in Mission Viejo.
Start With an Accurate Diagnosis
Pain is a signal, not a diagnosis. Two people with identical low-back pain can have entirely different causes - one a joint that has stopped moving properly, another a disc under pressure, a third a hip that never regained strength after an old injury. Treating all three the same way is why so much care fails to hold.
Dr. Nario begins with a history and a hands-on movement exam: what you feel, when it started, what makes it worse, and how your body actually moves under load. That assessment determines the plan. Some conditions respond quickly to adjustment and soft-tissue work. Others need a longer runway of corrective exercise. A few need imaging or referral, and we will tell you plainly when that is the case.
Conditions We Commonly Manage
Explore the conditions below for a fuller explanation of causes, symptoms and how care typically progresses.
Low-Back Pain
The most common reason people come to see us. Causes range from joint restriction and muscular guarding to disc irritation and weak deep core support.
Learn moreNeck Pain & Stiffness
Limited rotation, morning stiffness and that band of tension across the shoulders - often driven by posture, workstation setup or an old injury.
Learn moreSciatica & Radiating Symptoms
Pain, numbness or tingling travelling into the arm or leg. Nerve symptoms need a careful exam to find where the irritation actually originates.
Learn moreDisc-Related Pain
Disc irritation, bulges and degenerative change can produce pain that shifts with position - worse sitting, better walking, or the reverse.
Learn moreHeadaches Linked to Neck Dysfunction
Many recurring headaches begin in the upper neck. When that is the driver, treating the neck often changes the headache pattern.
Learn moreWhiplash & Auto-Accident Injury
Collision injuries frequently surface days later. Early evaluation matters for both your recovery and the documentation of your injuries.
Learn moreSports Injuries
Sprains, strains, tendon irritation and overuse injuries in athletes and weekend warriors - treated with an eye on why it happened.
Learn moreShoulder, Hip, Knee & Foot Pain
Chiropractic care is not only spinal. Extremity joints respond well to adjustment, soft-tissue work and targeted loading.
Learn morePostural & Desk-Related Discomfort
Long hours at a desk load the same tissues in the same way all day. Care combines treatment with changes to how you sit and move.
Learn moreWork-Related Injuries
Lifting injuries, repetitive strain and acute workplace accidents, with the documented care a workers compensation claim requires.
