Research Interests
My vision is to conduct research on the efficacy of herbs, supplements, therapies and modalities in the functional restoration and management of pain disorders. Examples of potent naturally occurring anti-inflammatory substances include ginger and turmeric.
Ongoing research includes efficacy of spine interventions in the management of perineural cysts, coccydynia, and adhesive capsulitis.
