Ergonomics are a great way to avoid injuries. Setting your desk up well can make a huge difference for your health. After all, you spend 8 hours or more sitting in front of a computer. Think about it, that’s more than 30% of your day. You’re probably reading this while sitting at your desk or […]
At Endeavour, we see a ton of ankle sprains, and while it is especially common among athletes, it is also a common injury for the general population. Early intervention is critical with this injury. Just as important, though, is seeing the treatment through to full recovery to ensure this injury doesn’t wreak havoc on the […]
Lower back pain is a common complaint that affects 80% of the general population. Adults frequently experience back pain, but many of them accept it as a normal part of aging, but it doesn’t have to be. Whether your back pain is mild or severe, there are steps you can take to relieve the pain. […]
At the clinic, we get inquiries about back pain all the time. Do you treat lumbar stenosis? I have a bulging disc, can you help me? My sciatica is acting up again. My doctor says I have arthritis in my back, what can I do? At Endeavour, we treat back pain every day, and do […]

Here is one you may have not heard: micro conditioning. After an injury or surgery, we often get swelling, pain, stiffness and lack of movement. In most cases, the pain eventually goes away as the […]
I’ve had neck issues off and on for about 10 years, dating back to an injury I suffered one night in University. I woke up the next morning and could barely move my head. Over the next few days it got significantly better, but I’ve had some degree of neck stiffness and episodic pain ever […]
Let’s flashback to October 20th, 2015 – It’s garbage time in a 44-20 blowout of the Houston Texans by the Miami Dolphins.
