FAQ

Questions Camden patients ask.

Don’t see your question? Call (856) 532-2063 or send us a message - we typically reply within one business day.

Why does my upper back ache by 2 PM every day?

Almost always: thoracic stiffness from desk posture. It's the most common cause we see.

Could it be my heart?

We screen for red flags first. Most upper-back pain is mechanical, but we never assume.

Can a rib actually be 'out'?

Rib-head dysfunction is real and very treatable, patients often feel relief immediately.

Is foam rolling enough?

It helps but rarely fixes the cause. Joint mobility usually needs hands-on work.
