The pain that comes with the job

Heavy lifting, machinery, and long hours on the docks — the strain on a longshoreman's body adds up fast, on the job and off.

  • Low back pain from constant bending

    Loading, lifting, and repetitive bending load the spine shift after shift. We treat the stiffness and flare-ups that limit your mobility.

  • Neck & shoulder strain

    Operating machinery and constantly looking up beat up the upper body. Targeted care helps restore range of motion without drugs.

  • Plantar fasciitis & foot pain

    Long hours on your feet on hard surfaces lead to heel pain and fatigue. We address the source, not just the symptoms.

  • Knee & hip wear

    Climbing, kneeling, and heavy loads take a toll on joints. We help you address pain before it becomes a long-term injury.

Convenient from San Pedro and the Port of LA

Longshoremen working the Port of Los Angeles and San Pedro can reach our Redondo Beach clinic via Pacific Coast Highway without crossing heavy downtown traffic.
