Your muscles, joints, and ligaments should work together, supporting you and your movements. When pain arises, it’s important to determine the cause so other parts of the body don’t have to pick up the slack of the injured area. Mitigating the cause of your pain means your body can function as it is intended to and serve you safely without risk.
At R3 Integrative Health, we’ve seen firsthand how our safe, non-invasive solutions to pain help heal and strengthen the body. Our clinic believes in the symbiotic relationship of body, mind, and spirit. When in physical discomfort, we suffer on every level. R3 has the tools and experience to remedy your discomfort at its source, alleviating pain for good.
Our team encourages a quick detection of the problem so more serious issues don’t occur. We’re here to help you get your body where it needs to be, meeting all of your goals in the most natural way possible.
We understand that you may have seen other healthcare professionals and be frustrated that your pain hasn’t yet subsided; let Ricki give you a comprehensive exam that scans your entire body to ensure everything is working correctly and find all the ways it’s not. Determining an effective and efficient wellness plan isn’t only your goal; it’s ours, too.
Let our Moncton Massage Therapy and Pain Clinic help you get back to doing the things you love.
Common Conditions Treated at R3 Integrative Health
Back Pain
When the back is in pain, finding results quickly is key to your body’s safety. The back is made up of the spine, an intricate structure that supports hundreds of movements a day, so when in distress, even the simplest of movements may be difficult or painful. Whether you have a herniated disc, muscle strain, or sciatica, we can help find solutions that work and discourage the issue from returning.
Neck Pain
Neck pain can stem from device use, bad posture, muscle overuse, and dozens of other circumstances. Our team is qualified to not only find the source of your injury but help you with advice and insight on proper movements, exercises, and stretches to nurture proactive body support and health.
Shoulder Pain
Correctly managing your shoulder discomfort will reduce your pain or motion loss as it naturally heals. When the shoulder is out of balance, it can lead to pain in your neck or back and cause undue stress on other areas of the body. Whether your shoulder pain is dull, throbbing, radiating, or chronic, Ricki has methods that will quickly find the root of your symptoms.
Headaches
Headaches can cause a myriad of problems, even those that aren’t severe. They can challenge your work process, eliminate your social situations, and force you to stay in bed rather than exercise. Our patients come to us to help them find long-lasting support for their headaches.
We can help with various kinds of headaches, including:
- Migraines
- Tension headaches
- Chronic headaches
- Stress headaches
We don’t want you to suffer from any kind of headache, and Ricki will give you a full-body exam to determine the cause so you can find comfort quickly.
TMJ
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) occurs when physical strain is put on the jaw area and can even lead to jaw dislocation. In many cases, TMJ is related to emotional stress. It can show up as:
- A popping or clicking sound when the mouth is opened, even if not very wide
- Soreness of the jaw’s joint
- Inability to open the mouth altogether
Our treatments align with the sensitivity of the jaw, and we will safely get you pain-free, removing the jaw’s restrictions.
Knee Pain
Because our knees support us when we walk, run, kneel, rise, and jump, we quickly notice when they aren’t functioning properly. If not taken care of, we tend to overcompensate for the pain by limping, which means the other leg takes on more weight than intended. Finding a reliable solution to the pain will ensure your body regains its natural gait and balance and keep further injury from occurring.
Auto-Related Injuries
Auto injuries come in many forms, and we have the ability to find what’s causing them. At R3 Integrative Health, we’ve helped dozens of patients in every part of the healing process after a collision. Accidents are traumatic, even the less serious, and our treatments offer non-invasive, responsible care so you can get back to your active lifestyle as soon as possible.
Chronic Injuries
Ricki offers services to those who have been suffering from chronic injuries for years. He’s skilled at finding solutions that end the pain for good and will benefit the patient further by sharing preventative tools. We don’t want you to need the help of healthcare providers forever; we want to see you free from pain and enjoying your life to its fullest.
Sciatica
Your sciatic nerve runs the length of your lower body and is the largest nerve. When it’s compromised, it can wreak havoc and be very painful. Sciatica can affect your ability to sleep, exercise, sit, and stand. Let us restore your mobility and end the challenges sciatica brings.
Sports Injuries
We enjoy working with active patients and understand the importance of their sport and routine. Ricki is a former competitor powerlifter and knows that missing workouts and competitions take a toll on any individual who lives for their sport. Whether you suffer from a chronic or old injury or have new aches and pains, we can be of service and get you back out there doing what you love.
We’re here to support your muscles, joints, and ligaments through natural, effective means so you can reach your athletic goals. You’ve put a lot of effort into your achievements, and we’ll guide you on to more.
Tennis Elbow
With repetitive use of the wrist or arm often comes tennis elbow. If you’re feeling pain outside the elbow that pulls through into the arm or wrist, seeking our help will benefit you. We offer treatments that end the discomfort, allowing you to get back to your activities safely; however, we’ll also help you find ways to support your elbow going forward and keep the pain from recurring.
Whiplash
Whiplash occurs when the head is aggressively, often unexpectedly, rocked forward and backward. It can keep you from safely handling your everyday activities like driving, working, or exercising. Our team is prepared to end your discomfort and provide you with the ultimate care for your neck pain.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)
When we overuse our muscles and tendons in the hand, we can cause compression to the nerve in the wrist, which can lead to CTS. This is a painful injury that will quickly impair our work and physical activity. Treatments at our clinic combined with ongoing exercise will alleviate your pain at the source.
Other common conditions we work with include:
- Muscle imbalances and muscular pain

- Arthritis
- Tendinitis / bursitis
