Assessment for spine conditions

Evaluation can help identify nerve, muscle, and spine problems and assess suitability for treatment.

  • Orthopedic and traumatology consultation: Reviews spine symptoms and supports treatment planning.
  • Physiatry consultation: Assesses physical function and rehabilitation needs.
  • Electromyography: Measures nerve conduction and electrical activity in muscles.
  • Musculoskeletal ultrasound: Uses imaging to assess muscles and other soft tissues.
  • Radiography: Uses X-rays to examine the spine and related structures.
  • Imaging review and clinical evaluation: Checks existing scans and candidacy before treatment.

Non-surgical care and rehabilitation

The clinic offers orthopedic management for low back pain, sciatica, herniated discs, and osteoarthritis. Care is coordinated with rehabilitation specialists.

  • Ozonotherapy: Medical ozone injections may be used for herniated discs, chronic pain, and osteoarthritis.
  • Regenerative cell therapy: Uses stem cells from bone marrow or abdominal fat, plus growth factors, to support tissue repair.
  • PRP therapy: Injections use platelets and growth factors taken from the patient’s blood.
  • Super Inductive System (SIS): Electromagnetic stimulation targets deep nerves and muscles to reduce pain and improve mobility.
  • Focal shock wave therapy: Focused acoustic energy treats chronic musculoskeletal conditions and may cause temporary discomfort.
  • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: Blue Ocean and Nautilus chambers deliver pure oxygen under high pressure in outpatient sessions.
  • Therapeutic infiltrations: Targeted injections provide pain relief and an anti-inflammatory effect.
  • Physical therapy and advanced rehabilitation: BTL equipment, Nordic Track, and combined therapy equipment support mobility, strength, and function.
  • Physiatry-led rehabilitation: Uses a biopsychosocial model, personalized recovery plans, and multidisciplinary collaboration.
  • Chiropractic massage: A manual therapy option for muscle tension, contractures, and blood flow.

Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss assessment and suitable care options.

ORTHOBIOSCIENCE: more details about the clinic

Dominican Republic, La Romana

ORTHOBIOSCIENCE is a multi-specialty center in La Romana, Dominican Republic. It opened in June 2017 and operates from a dedicated building with nine specialized departments. The clinic focuses on orthopedics, regenerative medicine, and rehabilitation for musculoskeletal injuries.

Advanced Orthopedic and Regenerative Services

The Ortopedia y Traumatología department diagnoses and prevents injuries affecting bones, joints, and nerves. The center treats a wide range of orthopedic conditions:

  • Scoliosis and spinal cord injuries
  • Osteoarthritis and arthrosis
  • Frozen shoulder
  • Musculoskeletal sports injuries

Each treatment plan is personalized to help patients regain mobility and function. Orthopedic surgeons work alongside physical therapists and clinical nutritionists.

The Regenerative Medicine unit offers non-surgical options to repair damaged tissues. These treatments stimulate natural healing with biological materials:

  • Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy using growth factors
  • Stem cell therapy using bone marrow and adipose tissue
  • Ozonotherapy for joint pain and arthrosis
  • Therapeutic infiltrations

These methods are less invasive than traditional surgery. Patients often experience reduced pain and faster tissue regeneration.

The Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation department is led by specialists with decades of experience. Dr. Maximo Alejandro Abreu Reyna brings 20 years of expertise to the team. The department uses a biopsychosocial model to support patients' return to daily life.

Neuromuscular Diagnostics and Urology

The clinic performs Electromyography for patients with nerve or muscle symptoms. This test measures electrical activity in muscles and nerve conduction, so it helps identify neuromuscular disorders that cause weakness or pain.

The Urology service covers the urinary and male reproductive systems. Dr. David Yambatis Sanguiste leads this department after training in laparoscopic and robotic surgery. The team treats:

  • Kidney stones
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Urological cancers

Pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound support diagnostic accuracy. The clinic also offers urodynamic testing to evaluate bladder and urethral function.

Technology and Specialized Equipment

The clinic uses advanced equipment for musculoskeletal recovery. Key therapeutic platforms include:

  • Super Inductive System (SIS) – stimulates deep nerves and muscles to reduce pain
  • High-Pressure Hyperbaric Chamber – delivers pure oxygen to heal chronic wounds
  • Focal Shock Waves – uses acoustic energy to treat tendon and bone injuries
  • Nordic Track – integrated into physical rehabilitation protocols
  • Combined Therapy Equipment – offers mixed therapeutic signals for recovery

Hyperbaric therapy works well for complex injuries like diabetic ulcers and burns. The high-pressure environment speeds healing in tissue with poor blood flow.

International Training and Patient Services

The clinic hosts scientific events like the International Symposium of Regenerative Medicine. Dr. Ramon Antonio Saldaña Matar contributes to these programs. He is certified by the Mexican Society of Orthopedics and Traumatology.

The facility is officially recognized by the Dominican Republic government. International coordination and consultations are conducted in Spanish. Clinical psychology support helps patients through the mental aspects of recovery.
