Many people living with chronic back or neck pain hear the same thing at some point

“You may eventually need surgery.”

But for many patients, that is not the only path forward.

At Fraum Health, we offer DRX 9000 Spinal Decompression Therapy, a non surgical treatment designed to relieve pressure on the spine and support the body’s natural healing process.

This therapy is often used for conditions such as
• Herniated or bulging discs
• Sciatica
• Degenerative disc disease
• Chronic neck and lower back pain

By gently decompressing the spine, the DRX 9000 helps reduce pressure on irritated nerves and allows the discs to rehydrate and recover.

The goal is simple.

Help patients move better, reduce pain, and return to the activities they enjoy.

If you have been told surgery may be your only option, it may be time to explore a different conversation.

As we age, our body naturally produces less collagen. That decline can affect the health of our joints, bones, ligaments, and tendons.

Collagen plays a key role in supporting the connective tissues that allow us to move well, stay active, and recover from daily wear and tear.

When choosing a collagen supplement, Dr. Heather Hinshelwood shares a few tips on what type of collagen to look for!

Small daily habits can make a meaningful difference in how your body moves and feels over time.

If joint stiffness, tendon irritation, or recovery issues are slowing you down, our team can help you explore a personalized approach to improving joint health and mobility.

At Fraum Health, we believe one of the most important things we can do for our community is share knowledge that helps people live healthier, longer lives.

Recently, our team had the opportunity to connect with two incredible local groups:

🔹 Dr. Costa spoke to the Hilton Head Island - VanLandingham Rotary Club about Longevity and the science behind staying active and healthy as we age.

🔹 Dr. Hinshelwood spoke at the Hilton Head Area Realtors Membership Luncheon, sharing insights on how proactive care, movement, and restorative medicine help people stay active in the sports and activities they love.

Education is a core part of our mission at Fraum Health. By partnering with community organizations, we’re able to empower people with practical strategies to stay in the game — whether that means golf, tennis, pickleball, work, or everyday life.

Thank you to the VanLandingham Rotary Club and the Hilton Head Area Realtors for the opportunity to spend time with your members.

If your organization is interested in a health or longevity presentation, we’d love to connect.

Hilton Head Island is known for its incredible golf courses and active lifestyle. But repetitive motion from golf can place stress on the spine and joints over time.

Many golfers begin to experience issues like lower back strain, shoulder irritation, knee pain, or hip stiffness. These are some of the most common injuries we see in active adults who love the game.

As Hilton Head prepares for the Heritage and another busy golf season, it’s a good reminder that great performance starts with healthy joints, a stable spine, and pain-free movement.

At Fraum Health, our physician-led care focuses on identifying the root cause of pain and restoring mobility so you can continue enjoying the lifestyle you love.

The goal is not just temporary relief, but long-term joint health and stability.

If pain is affecting your swing, walking the course, or everyday movement, it may be time to explore your options.

Free Seminar for Golf & Pickleball Players

During this discussion, Dr. Costa will explain how spinal alignment, mobility, posture, and strength work together to support performance and reduce strain on the body. You will also learn practical strategies to improve movement efficiency and support long-term joint health.

Chronic pain can slowly take over your life.

Tony came to Fraum Health while visiting Hilton Head after struggling with neuropathy and severe lower back pain for months. Simple things like walking normally had become difficult.
Through a personalized care plan that included Summus Laser Therapy and spinal decompression, Tony experienced significant improvement in both his nerve pain and mobility.

Today, he says the pain in his lower back is gone and he is walking normally again.
Stories like Tony’s are why we focus on physician-led care that looks beyond symptoms to address the underlying cause of pain.

If you have been told surgery may be your only option, it may be worth exploring other pathways first.

Before considering knee replacement, it’s important to understand all of your options.

Many people assume knee pain automatically leads to surgery. In reality, joint pain can come from inflammation, alignment issues, cartilage degeneration, or nerve involvement.

The right treatment depends on identifying the true source of the problem.

At Fraum Health, our physician-led care evaluates the full picture before recommending a pathway.

Treatment options may include:

Chiropractic Care
Spinal Decompression
Knee on Trac Therapy
Laser Therapy
Stem Cells | Regenerative Medicine

Our goal is simple: address the root cause, reduce pain, and help you stay active without unnecessary surgery.

As Hilton Head prepares for another active spring and Heritage season, healthy joints and a stable spine are essential for enjoying the lifestyle you love.

Before committing to surgery, explore your options.
