Integrative Musculoskeletal Evidence Based Medicine:
"Problem Oriented and Patient Centered"
How do we effectively treat patients?
Correct diagnoses and a complete treatment program are the keys to cure your pain!
Dr. Yu treats pain by addressing the root of the problem. When a patient have a pain in his or her body, the first thing we want to know is where it comes from and what it is. Most pain medication only provides temporary pain relieve. Finding the root causes of pain allows Dr. Yu to "cure" your pain. A precise diagnosis is the first step to help a patient to eliminate his/her chronic pain.
We carefully diagnoses each patient by going through complete medical history taking, physical exam, and diagnostic imaging to finalize some impressions.
After history taking and physical exam, if needed, Dr. Yu refers patient to neighborhood imaging for X-ray to rule out issues related to bone. Additionally, Dr. Yu performs musculoskeletal ultrasound to help his patients understand the severity and the condition of his/her soft tissue injury.
After an initial evaluation, an individual may wonder how long it will take resolve his/her musculoskeletal pain. Dr. Yu will discuss the estimated treatment frequency and time with each individual because the recovery time depends on each individual's physical condition and the severity of the diagnosis.
For treatments, Dr. Yu combines manual medicine and physical modalities for a customized treatment. That includes chiropractic adjustment, soft tissue works (such as myofascial and trigger point release as well as active stretching), therapeutic ultrasound, electrotherapy, laser(self pay), shockwave therapy(self pay), and paraffin wax bath for hands(self pay). Therapeutic exercise will be included in every treatment program in our exercise room.
If a patient has a fracture or other health conditions which are beyond in Dr. Yu's scope of practice, Dr. Yu will refer him/her to an appropriate health care provider.

以問題為導向找出病因 客製化治療
以問題為導向找出病因 客製化治療
我們如何有效完整治療?
首先,要解決一個難纏疼痛痠麻無力的問題,只有正確的診斷加上針對診斷的積極完整治療計劃,才是根本。
如果您身體有疼痛,第一個我們想要釐清的問題是,疼痛從哪裡來?疼痛確切的診斷是什麼⋯⋯?有了正確的診斷,接下來的治療計畫才不會白費。
標準的診斷流程,就是包括 1. 病史詢問 2.理學身體檢查 3. 醫學影像輔助(X光、超音波、MRI、CT等等) 來得到初步診斷。
因此,您若來看診,除了一定會有的病史詢問和理學身體檢查,Dr. Yu會視病況需要請您到鄰近的醫學影像機構照X光,來找出骨骼的問題。至於肌肉、肌腱、韌帶、筋膜等軟組織的問題,Dr. Yu會用肌肉骨骼超音波,可為您在看診的當時,即時在超音波動態影像上,直接為您說明您軟組織受傷的部位和嚴重程度。
在您知道並了解自己疼痛的原因和位置的診斷後,第一次也會有大約半小時的依病況積極全套的治療,使疼痛有某種程度上的減輕。減輕的程度及治療的次數看每個問題的嚴重度,和病人的運動治療配合度,以及不同人的需求(例如運動員需要能夠恢復到長時間的反覆比賽都能不疼痛;非運動員只要能日常活動不疼痛),自然要求有所不同。
治療的方式和內容,是針對問題的整合治療:
整脊、肌筋膜治療、治療性超音波、電療、雷射治療(自費選擇性〉、震波治療(自費選擇性)、及手部蠟療(自費選擇性)。同時也內含客製化的有效運動治療。
如果病因的診斷是骨折,或是其他非骨骼肌肉系統引起的疼痛,Dr. Yu 也會提供相關的後續轉診科別建議。
以上是 Dr. Yu 對於反覆發作的肌肉骨骼問題的完整治癒理念。
