What I Treat

 

What I Treat

My practice focuses primarily on musculoskeletal pain, injuries, and movement problems. Whether your problem developed from sports, work, repetitive use, an old injury, or seemingly for no reason at all, the goal is to identify what is contributing to it and help you get back to moving and feeling better.

You don't need to know whether you need acupuncture, dry needling, shockwave therapy, or another approach before you come in. That's my job.

Sports & Overuse Injuries

You don't have to be an athlete to develop a sports-type injury. Many of the problems I treat result from repetitive movement, work, exercise, training, or simply doing more than the body was prepared to handle.

Common problems include:

  • Muscle strains

  • Tendon injuries and tendinopathy

  • Trigger points and persistent muscle tightness

  • Repetitive-use injuries

  • Mobility restrictions

  • Training-related pain

  • Chronic injuries that haven't fully resolved

  • Pain that keeps returning with activity

Back Pain Testimonials

 

“I had several visits with Todd Fluck at South Jersey Sports Acupuncture now and the results have been way beyond my expectations.

I began seeing Todd to battle pain in my lower back due to arthritis. After my first visit, I had 50% reduction in pain. After my 3rd visit, I was able to return to all of my normal activities including Brazilian Jiujitsu 3-5 days a week and regular strength training 2-4 times per week.

I entered SJSA as a skeptic and within a few visits I am now urging my friends and family to make appointments with Todd.”

— William Bell

“I have awful back spasms (reoccurring/on and off issue). I have tried physical therapy, traditional massages, etc. and nothing seems to offer any sort of immediate relief. My session at South Jersey Sports Acupuncture did. Great customer care and I recommend to anyone looking for relief from chronic pain”

— Melissa Bateman

“My Dr. recommended South Jersey Sports Acupuncture for possible relief of my lower back pain. I wasn’t interested in the steroid shot which was offered to me. After two sessions with Todd, I noticed a significant reduction in my pain level. I’ve been going for about 8 months now and feel so much better. Between acupuncture and the muscle work that Todd does, he has worked magic on my aching back. Todd is patient, skilled and incredibly knowledgeable about the biomechanics and muscle function of the human body and how they need to work together so we feel our best. I highly recommend Todd as a practitioner to help with chronic pain or heal an injury”

— Patricia Pecock

Neck Pain Testimonials

 

“After years of “powering” through and trying to ignore the tight pain and grinding crunch in my neck each time I turned to look over my shoulder, I decided to try acupuncture. I had met Todd previously when he used his skill as a massage therapist and partnered with the trainer I was working with to successfully resolve my rotator cuff injury. So Todd was a natural choice and he did not disappoint😊 The “pain” lessened to “discomfort” after just 1 visit and after 3 I feel GREAT! The knot is gone and I can easily turn from side to side with full mobility. If you’ re considering acupuncture then Todd is the one to see!”

— Sharon Prizer

“Quality time with a true professional. Relieved incapacitating migraines and neck pain in one visit. Will be back again and again for health and wellness.

My next area of concern were my hamstrings-identifying the true source of pain after years of decreased function and pain. (since 2009-I remember that day too well). I cant wait to get back to feeling like I can control my workouts. I can’t thank you enough for your time and expertise!”

— Jennifer Welch

“I called Todd when I was literally in a pinch with a neck injury that had flared up after exercising. I could barely turn my head which made it difficult to sleep, drive, work, etc. I had tried seeing other specialists when this happened to me in the past but Todd was the only one able to provide me with relief. He is punctual, professional and amazing at what he does. I am very grateful for his knowledge and expertise, thanks again Todd!”

— Leah Geissler

Shoulder Pain Testimonials

 

“After a shoulder injury, I took some time off, not doing anything overhead and not doing anything to cause pain (push ups and bench press too). Two months later I did not feel any better. One visit with Todd for acupuncture, stim, and some stretching and massage, I feel so much better and have been able to do wall balls, snatch, pull-ups, and overhead squats within a week after my visit. He really spends quality time with you and doesn’t just automatically sign you up for more visits, it’s totally up to the patient and how they are feeling.”

— Christine D.

“I had a wonderful experience. I have been dealing with neck and shoulder pain for a long time. Todd was very thorough and knowledgeable about all aspects of the cause of my discomfort. I finally found someone to help me get to the root of my problem ans not just another temporary fix. Highly recommended!”

— Laura Jerry

“I was going to physical therapy for 2 years with no results for pain with my shoulder. I’ve now been seeing Todd for treatments and have since been able to lift and move my arm as normal. Todd is excellent.”

— Tatyana Lysenko

Knee Pain Testimonials

 

“Todd is great at what he does. He is extremely thorough in explaining what needs to be done to help the injured areas. He helped me with my neck and knee, which were two injuries that were baffling to me. I had instant relief both times. I highly recommend his services.”
