Are you looking for a physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor?
These doctors specialize in conditions related to the brain, spinal cord, nerves, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons. They look at the body as a whole and try to enhance performance without having to perform any invasive surgeries. People visit physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors for many reasons but mainly due to physical trauma, pain, or problems with movement.
