At Activa Clinics, we provide customized treatment plans. That means all of our therapies and services can be tailored to your unique needs.
To guide us in creating your custom plan, it’s important that we get a complete picture of your situation. That’s why our process always starts with us speaking to you. We’ll talk about how you sustained the injury, your symptoms, medical history, and goals for your treatment.
We can use a variety of advanced diagnostic tools to help us uncover your injuries. That includes MRI, bone scan, ultrasound, and nerve conduction study.
