  • Nost Korean Medicine Clinic
    평점 5.0점 (5점 만점)

    I think this clinic is better personally than standard physical therapy at an orthopedic office.

    My knee cartilage was really painful, but after consulting with the doctor, I got physical therapy and an injection, and I'm feeling much better.

    My son twisted his ankle while playing soccer, but thankfully, the doctor said it wasn't a serious injury.

Frequently Asked Questions

Check common questions first

When should I visit orthopedics?
Visit orthopedics for joint, muscle, or bone pain; trauma (fractures, sprains); musculoskeletal conditions like herniated discs, arthritis, or frozen shoulder. Chronic back, neck, or knee pain is also treated here.
Should I get an MRI or an X-ray?
X-rays are best for checking bone fractures and deformities, with quick results. MRI is needed to evaluate soft tissue damage like discs, cartilage, and ligaments, usually as a follow-up after X-ray.
Do herniated discs always require surgery?
Most herniated discs improve with conservative treatment — medication, physical therapy, and manual therapy. Surgery is considered for severe leg numbness, paralysis, or bowel/bladder dysfunction. Fewer than 10% actually require surgery.
When should I get joint replacement surgery?
Surgery is considered when joint pain disrupts daily life and conservative treatment fails. It's typically performed in the 60s and older, but the decision depends on pain and activity level. Most patients regain near-normal activity after surgery.
Is manual therapy covered by insurance?
Manual therapy is non-covered by national health insurance. It may be partially covered by private indemnity insurance, with limits varying by policy and enrollment date. Check with your insurer.
