What It Can Do

Shoulder: Rotator cuff tears/tendinopathy (supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis); biceps tendinopathy/subluxation; subacromial–subdeltoid bursitis; calcific tendinitis; dynamic impingement assessment.
Elbow: Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow); medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow); distal biceps tendon tears; ulnar collateral ligament (partial tears); olecranon bursitis.
Wrist & Hand: Carpal tunnel (median nerve swelling/cross‑sectional area); De Quervain’s tenonsynovitis; trigger finger (A1 pulley/flexor tendon thickening); ganglion cysts; extensor/flexor tendon tears.
Hip & Pelvis: Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (gluteal tendinopathy and trochanteric bursitis); snapping hip; adductor tendinopathy; hamstring origin tendinopathy. Note: some deeper hip/labral conditions still require MRI.
Knee: Quadriceps and patellar tendinopathy; Osgood‑Schlatter changes; prepatellar/infrapatellar bursitis; Baker’s (popliteal) cyst; medial plica; joint effusion; superficial MCL/LCL sprains. Meniscus/ACL often require MRI.
Ankle & Foot: Achilles tendinopathy or rupture; peroneal/posterior tibial tendon tears; plantar fasciitis (fascia thickness/tears); ATFL/CFL sprains; Morton’s neuroma.
Peripheral Nerves: Median nerve at the carpal tunnel; ulnar nerve at the cubital tunnel; superficial peroneal and tibial nerve entrapments (when superficial). Dynamic scanning helps identify sites of irritation and space‑occupying lesions.

Scoliosis-specific Exercises

Patients learn individualized 3D corrections—de‑rotation, axial elongation, and stabilization—paired with specific breathing into the concavity and postural “autocorrections.” This aims to retrain motor control, rib‑cage mechanics, and balance so better alignment becomes a practiced habit.

Postural Traction

“Mirror‑image” positioning and traction are used to counter habitual translations or imbalances. The goal is to influence soft‑tissue remodeling over time while strengthening the corrected posture.

Why Earlier is Better

During growth spurts, curves have a higher chance of progressing. Treating earlier—especially before peak growth—improves the odds that exercises and bracing can stabilize the spine. Clinicians gauge growth using skeletal maturity markers (e.g., Risser and Sanders staging) alongside curve size and pattern. In adults, growth is no longer a factor, but targeted exercise and posture training can still improve pain, endurance, and daily function.

What Is It

At Total DC Wellness we use the Butterfly iQ3™, a handheld, single‑probe, whole‑body ultrasound device that brings hospital‑grade imaging to the exam room. Unlike traditional ultrasound carts that require multiple probes, the iQ3 uses a single, software‑defined transducer to scan superficial and deeper tissues across multiple body regions. It pairs with a phone or tablet (iOS or Android) to display high‑resolution, real‑time images we can capture, annotate, and securely store in your chart.

Built on “ultrasound‑on‑chip” technology, iQ3 is small, fast, and highly portable. That means we can image painful areas during your visit, correlate findings with your exam, and make decisions without sending you elsewhere when it isn’t necessary. For many tendon, ligament, nerve, and bursa problems, diagnostic ultrasound is an excellent first‑line imaging option with no ionizing radiation.
