Dr. Tim Maggs shares the case of a 74-year-old man experiencing progressively worsening left hip and low back pain that made everyday movement increasingly difficult.
Following a referral from the patient’s longtime chiropractor, Dr. Maggs reviewed X-rays showing hip degeneration, lumbar arthritic changes, and a 9.2-millimeter difference in femoral head height with orthotics in place.
He explains his recommended care plan, including orthotics with a left-sided lift, laser therapy for the low back and both hips, and spinal decompression. Dr. Maggs reports substantial improvement during the first three weeks of care and discusses how he considers symptoms and structural findings when planning ongoing treatment.
