Get the specialized clinical care you need to recover, alongside the meticulous documentation required for your Missouri Workers’ Compensation claim.

Understand Your Pain

Workplace injuries require dual expertise: top-tier clinical rehabilitation to return you to work safely, and precise, prompt record-keeping to satisfy insurance adjusters, case managers, and employers. St. Louis Medical Center has coordinated Missouri Workers’ Compensation cases for decades.

Common Warning Signs

Sudden back spasms or pain after lifting heavy equipment on the job

Repetitive motion numbness or tingling in the wrists, hands, or shoulders

Stiffness, aching joints, or reduced mobility following a slip-and-fall accident

Sharp neck or shoulder pain from poor ergonomic desk setups or heavy labor

Constant muscle fatigue and soreness associated with work tasks

Our Treatment Approach

We focus on restoring mobility and relieving joint pressure through non-invasive techniques:

Targeted Spine & Extremity Adjustments

Aligning misaligned joints to reduce pain immediately and allow normal work movements.

Active Work Conditioning

Supervised exercises that mimic daily work movements (lifting, reaching, carrying) to build durability and prevent re-injury.

Detailed Case Management Support

Providing work status updates, progress reports, and functional capacity assessments in a timely manner.

Clinical Care Quality

Evaluations and treatments are run directly by Dr. David Sciortino and our clinical chiropractic care team.
