Manipulation Under Sedation is a procedure where a patient is lightly anesthetized to achieve total relaxation, then stretching movements, which would normally be too painful to even consider, are easily and painlessly accomplished while correcting the cause of the patient's pain or condition.
MUS, combined with consistent, but simple post-procedure treatment and exercise, can eliminate or greatly reduce pain and improve range of motion and flexibility. Plus, MUS procedures are cost-effective…thousands of dollars less than traditional surgery and other more invasive treatments - and usually qualify for insurance coverage. In addition, recovery is much faster, allowing MUS patients to get back to work and the pleasure of living and doing their normal daily activities much sooner than expected.
