Manipulation under Anesthesia

Village Family Chiropractic announced the addition of Manipulation Under Anesthesia to its roster of medical treatments.


Dr. James R. Fedich has recently been certified in Manipulation under Anesthesia, which gives patient another treatment option for difficult and chronic conditions, by Southern California University of Health Sciences.
The procedure has been practiced since the 1930s and has been used for many years. Recently the use of the procedure has increased greatly thanks to advances in the technique and anesthesia.
Manipulation Under Anesthesia can be an effective procedure for people with chronic neck pain, back pain, or other spine pain caused by disabilities or accidents, or any injury that has not responded to conventional treatments. 

"This procedure gives our patients another option, for patients who have tried multiple treatments unsuccessfully, this gives them another step before trying invasive surgery," Fedich said.
Fedich has been practicing in Panther Valley for five years, but he recently added the procedure to his practice to help with more difficult cases. His certification was completed through extra study and proctorship for the procedure at Southern California University of Health Sciences.
"I had back pain from a car accident every morning when I woke up, after the second day of MUA, I woke up for the first time without a back ache in over a year," explained one patient, K.H, of Hackettstown, who asked their name not be used.

Manipulation Under Anesthesia achieves results because it allows the caregivers to adjust the bones and muscles without the usual resistance. Light sedation allows patients to be responsive but not apprehensive. Adjustments are completely gentle, Fibrotic adhesions are altered, motion is increased, muscles stretched, collagen remodeled, and the result of decreased pain and discomfort are amazing.
A recent study by Ongly et el, showed a recovery rate of 87 percent of patients with 10 year or longer pain, another by Dr. Paul Kuo showed 83 percent positive response rate. 

Fedich has taken a special interest in caring for patients with chronic pain, but this treatment is not for everyone. Those with questions regarding Manipulation under Anesthesia can call Fedich at (908) 813-8200 or e-mail drfedich@villagefamilychiro.com.
