Muscle Pain

Achy back, neck, shoulder, arms, knees, and hips? Don’t just chalk it up to getting old or overdoing. While that may factor in to your chronic fight with muscle pain, it’s also likely that your pain is related to an undiagnosed, untreated, or undertreated vision problem. Yep, vision! The way you hold your body or move through space may be impacted by a faulty visual system. Tense muscles or postural issues may result from underlying weaknesses in your vision. Remember, by vision, we mean much more than simply having healthy eyes that can see 20/20. There’s an entire universe of vision that could be linked to your chronic muscle pain. If you have chronic aches and pains, muscle soreness, or postural problems that create or exacerbate muscle pain, contact Dr. Stephey for a comprehensive neurodevelopmental / behavioral eye exam and to see how your muscle pain might respond to vision therapy, neurolenses (glasses with prescription prisms, low-plus lenses, and / or colored tint), and / or nutrition therapy. Let Dr. Stephey help you see well and be well. For more in-depth information on the role of vision in muscle pain, visit our Resources page.
