Get to know Steven W. Thatcher

• Back, Neck, and Joint Pain Relief
  "Most medical specialties treat a body system, such as heart or lungs. I treat a symptom—pain. In any given day I may personally see a construction worker with low back pain, a teenager with a sports-related knee injury, an office worker with carpal tunnel syndrome, or an active older patient with arthritis. All cause pain, and all require a thorough investigation and then a simple, holistic non-surgical approach to effective pain relief."

• Relieve Pain Non-Surgically
  "Although I provide a spectrum of outpatient care, including spinal and joint injections, electrodiagnostic EMG testing, and musculoskeletal ultrasound, I begin with the end in mind: simple and thorough answers to the source of pain and noninvasive remedies and rehabilitation to provide relief. It’s all about pain solutions for active people."
