Robotic-assisted surgical systems are used in joint replacement to promote accuracy, enhance control, and spare any healthy bones, ligaments, or other tissues from being removed.

In preoperative planning, the imaging software gives your joint replacement specialist the ability to create a personalized plan that meets your specific needs and predefine the boundaries of your operation.

During surgery, the robotic assistance and intraoperative software helps doctors perform complex techniques with enhanced precision and flexibility. 

Bursitis is the inflammation of a bursa, which is a jelly-like sac that holds a small amount of fluid and acts as a cushion between bones and soft tissues. Hip bursitis is a common type of bursitis; however, this condition can also occur in the shoulder, elbow, knee, and heel, since these sacs are located all over the body.

For joint injuries and surgery, physical therapy plays a vital part in your recovery, helping you heal faster, increase your range of motion, and reduce scar tissue and pain.

Physical therapy is a treatment method doctors often recommend to help with recovery following a surgery or injury. The goal of physical therapy is to make movement and activity easier, reduce pain, restore muscular function and strength, and return patients to their daily activities, work, or recreation quickly and safely.

Martial arts are a fun way for athletes of all ages to develop their mental and physical conditioning. Before enrolling, you should learn about the general risks involved with each specific martial art form (kung fu, taekwondo, judo, etc.), as certain forms are not suited for all athletes. All forms have some risk of injury, including bone, joint, and muscle injuries, such as strains, fractures, sprains, and dislocations as well as head injuries and minor injuries, like cuts and bruising.

A concussion can occur after an impact to your head or a whiplash-type injury that results in your head and brain rapidly shaking back and forth. While they can happen during many different types of sports and activities, they are most common in high-contact sports, like football or boxing.

Symptoms of a concussion are not always obvious. Sometimes, a concussion can cause loss of consciousness, but this does not always happen. Some symptoms can also be delayed and appear several days after the injury.

The most common symptoms of a concussion include:

There are typically only a few symptoms related to a fracture. If you or your athlete has suffered a fracture, the pain levels will vary depending on the location and type of fracture. Other common symptoms are swelling and/or bruising and an inability to bear weight or move the affected body part at all.

The most obvious type of fracture is an open fracture, where a bone has been broken due to a severe trauma and the skin is pierced by the bone. There are also various types of closed fractures, where a bone break does not break the skin.

Common types of fractures include:

Sports burnout is a response to chronic stress after the continued demands of playing a sport or doing an activity without the necessary or proper recovery periods. This can happen to any athlete, but it’s most common in younger athletes. For all athletes, parents, and coaches, it’s important to be aware of the signs and phases of burnout.
