Below are some of the conditions that we have success with:
Headaches/ Migraines
Nine out of ten Americans say that they suffer from headaches. Some of these people experience headaches frequently. Some experience constant headaches that are very painful. These can even make a person nauseous. Ninety-five percent of headaches are tension, migraine, or cluster headaches. These types of headaches are not caused from a disease, but from something in your body that is not sitting correctly.
Neuropathy
Neuropathy is a medical condition caused by damaged nerve cells and often associated with diabetes, chemotherapy / radiation, autoimmune diseases, infections, tumors, or hereditary conditions. Peripheral neuropathy currently affects over 20 million people in the United States with symptoms ranging from numbness, tingling or burning, sharp pain and nausea to muscle spasms, difficulty moving your arms or legs, or atrophy.

Fibromyalgia
We help fibromyalgia patients EVERY DAY. You see, a large part of this practice is devoted to chronic pain cases. Devoted to cases other doctors have had no success with. Devoted to cases other doctors have given up on. Devoted to cases other doctors have simply turned their backs on and thrown out with the trash, saying “you’ll just need to live with the pain.” Devoted to cases just like yours.
The secret to our program’s success is that it has a multi-pronged attack on fibromyalgia, that to my knowledge, no other doctors in this area have even heard about, much less are doing. Attain Health Omaha is a team and we attack fibromyalgia from every possible angle, giving you the best possible chance to feel like you did BEFORE fibromyalgia stole your life.
You may ask…………….
WHY DO I FEEL SO TERRIBLE AND WHY DON’T MY DOCTORS HAVE THIS UNDER CONTROL?
We get this question all the time. Fibromyalgia is a neurological, orthopedic and a metabolic condition. “Straws on the camel’s back” per se. IF it were one sole cause of your symptoms, odds are pretty good that your doctor would have it under control. The traditional medical system (dictated by insurance) doesn’t operate that way and results in a “tough luck” diagnosis for many.
The latest research points to inflammation and nervous system dysfunction as a major cause – if not THE cause – of fibromyalgia.
Hormone Therapy (BHRT/TRT) & Sexual Health
Optimizing your hormones can help you return to feeling vibrant, sexy, and healthy again. Both men and women experience hormonal changes throughout their lives. As these hormone levels decline, it can have a serious impact on your quality of life.
Hormonal imbalances occur when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream. Due to the essential role of hormones in the body, even the slightest hormone imbalance can cause side effects throughout our entire bodies.

Knee Pain
Knee Osteoarthritis, knee injuries, knee cartilage condition and meniscus issues are commonly seen by our providers. Cartilage issues are the most common cause of knee pain. We offer treatment options such as neuromuscular conditioning, physical rehabilitation, injections (corticosteroid, viscosupplementation &/or PRP), & bracing that are often very useful in managing knee arthritis.
Knee replacement should always be the last option. A deep understanding of the knee and how it functions with the rest of the body during movement is the key to success.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
CTS is a problem of the median nerve which runs from the forearm into the hand. When there is excessive pressure in the wrist, it causes swelling of the median nerve. This small area called the carpal tunnel is a narrow tunnel at the wrist made up of bones, soft tissues, nerves, tendons, ligaments and blood vessels. When the median nerve which runs through this tunnel gets compressed it causes pain, weakness, numbness or tingling in the hand and wrist which radiates into the forearm. The carpal tunnel is the most common area that gets compressed in both the hands and feet.
CTS should be diagnosed and treated early. During your consultation, you will receive a standard physical examination of the hands, arms, shoulders and neck to help determine if your symptoms are related to daily activities or to an underlying disorder. Our highly skilled providers will also utilize other orthopedic tests to try to produce the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Laboratory tests and x-rays can reveal diabetes, arthritis, fractures, and other common causes of wrist and hand pain.
Sciatica
Sciatica is characterized by pain in the lower back that radiates down one or both legs. The pain is described as dull, achy, sharp, like “pins and needles” or similar to electric shocks. Other symptoms associated with sciatica include burning, numbness and tingling sensations. Sciatic nerve pain varies in intensity from mild to severe, and frequency may range from occasional to constant. The onset is generally gradual and not necessarily associated with a previous event. Sciatica is also known as radiating or referred pain, neuropathy, or neuralgia.
Back Pain
Since back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, it is vital to know how to prevent the cause of back pain. Maintaining a healthy diet and weight, remaining active and avoiding prolonged inactivity or bed rest are all important ways to avoid back pain. Before doing exercises or any physical activity, it is recommended to warm up and/or stretch. There are so many ways the back can be injured. It is important that you seek out quality advice when it comes to treatment options. At Attain Health Omaha, we have medical, physical therapy and chiropractic practitioners that collaborate in your care. This ensures you are not in a “square peg, round hole” scenario. We work together to find the right approach to fixing your problem.
