Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA) Bergen County, NJ
Chronic pain has a tendency to slowly take over our lives, degrading our quality of life the longer it stays with us, particularly when it is back and neck pain. For some patients, chiropractic adjustment is enough to stop the pain, but for others, more serious measures might be necessary to resume normal activities and live a normal life again. Manipulation Under Anesthesia, or MUA as it is commonly known, is often an effective treatment for severe spinal pain and other neuromuscular skeletal conditions, and Dr. Peter Ferraro, DC, an experienced, long time practitioner of MUA, has helped people in Bergen County, New Jersey and all over find relief.

Manipulation Under Anesthesia takes advantages of the natural relaxation of the muscles and joints when anesthetized to treat patients who can’t tolerate manual techniques because of severe pain, muscle contracture, spasms or muscle guarding. While sedated, patients can undergo more significant ligament mobilization, tendon stretching and joint realignment because they are more flexible. Dr. Ferraro has performed more than 5,000 MUA treatments and achieved excellent results for those in pain.

- Shoulder Pain
- Lower Back Pain
- Joint Pain
