Greenacres is a densely populated working community. The mix of families, service workers, healthcare employees from the nearby JFK Medical Center and Palms West Hospital corridors, and tradespeople creates a diverse patient population with a wide range of spine conditions. We see everything from the postural problems of long-shift healthcare workers to the acute injuries of people doing physical jobs to the chronic conditions of older adults who have been managing pain for years.

Greenacres Patients We See Most Often

Healthcare workers who spend 12-hour shifts on their feet at facilities along the 45th Street and Haverhill Road corridors develop a predictable pattern of lumbar and hip loading that leads to facet joint pain, piriformis syndrome, and plantar fasciitis-related referred pain. Standing for extended periods without proper body mechanics compresses the posterior lumbar structures and shortens the hip flexors over time. We treat this pattern frequently in nurses, CNAs, and hospital support staff from the Greenacres area.

A patient who works as a charge nurse and lives near Jog Road in Greenacres came to us two years ago with persistent right-sided lower back pain that had been attributed to muscle strain by her employer's occupational health provider. She had been given a muscle relaxant and told to use a back support belt, which she had done for four months with minimal improvement. The examination found a right L5-S1 facet syndrome with associated piriformis tightness on the same side. The belt had actually been making the facet component worse by restricting the normal motion the joint needed. Targeted facet manipulation and piriformis release produced significant improvement within three weeks. She discharged from care at eight weeks and has not needed to return for that issue.

The intersection at Military Trail and Lake Worth Road, and the stretch along Jog Road near the commercial corridors, generate a steady volume of rear-end and intersection collisions.
