with the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of disease
and disability through physical means. It is based upon
principles of medical science and is generally held
to be within the sphere of conventional medicine.

broadly grouped such as musculoskeletal, cardiopulmonary,
and neurological. Our office specialty is musculoskeletal
