On your road to recovery, you ideally want a solution that is both minimally invasive and non-surgical. If you have suffered anything from a mild or extreme musculoskeletal and orthopedic injury, those are more than just buzzwords for you. Thankfully, our patients in the Huntington area now have access to our world-class licensed physical therapist – Michael Friar D.P.T

Physical therapy is helpful in decreasing pain, restoring function, and preventing disability. It also helps to encourage mobility in those with injuries or impairments. It is based on exercises that you can do at home and commitment to them. Common exercises include those based on stretching, modalities, and manual therapy. Patients are also taught proper body mechanics and postural awareness. New York Spine Institute also offers an array of weight machines to improve strength, endurance, and more.

When you come here, you will first be evaluated by one of our licensed physical therapists. They will assess your current level of function and pain intensity. They will also consider your lifestyle and how much your pain affects it. Then, our resident Michael Friar, D.P.T. will present the treatment options available to the patient. At our practice, we always strive to set realistic goals with our patients and work to develop the most optimal regimen.

IMAGING SERVICES FOR HUNTINGTON PATIENTS

The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine was invented in 1977 and has since revolutionized medicine. It is a useful, non-invasive, and safe way to help diagnose conditions. Our MRI machine will give our doctors the tools that they need to analyze your images for bone and soft tissue anatomy. Our office in Deer Park has state of the art and technologically advanced diagnostic tools. In addition to our 1.5 MRI system, we also have a Digital Radiography (DX) x-ray. Our high-field short bore 1.5 MRI system supports many clinical situations. We can do MRI scans of the spine, brain, abdomen, pelvis, shoulder, knee, hip, elbow, wrist, ankle, and even the foot!

Best yet: New York Spine Institute’s brand-new GE 1.5 system will provide our physicians with their best images yet. With this system, our doctors will be able to see high-quality and detailed pictures of your condition. With these pictures, they will be able to more accurately diagnose and eventually treat your neck pain. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging tool. It uses magnetism and radio waves to produce detailed images of the body. It is extremely safe, non-invasive, and helpful to physicians. Many times, an MRI scan will pick up the presence of a certain disease when other tools such as x-rays cannot. We know that spine and neck treatment can be scary. But we care deeply about our patients and do not want them to be nervous in our office! As a result, we have made our office in Huntington as calming as possible. When you come here, you will have access to relaxing music, earplugs, and even sleeping masks.

Our office in Huntington is even outfitted with its digital radiology department. In this part of our practice, the images are digitized and radiologists can analyze bone and soft tissue. As part of this, we also offer Long Length Imaging (LLI) for proper scoliosis assessment.
