Dr. Moalemi’s practice is centered around the prevention of sports injuries. By helping patients with proper training techniques and educating them about correct form and posture, Dr. Moalemi can help athletes prevent injuries or avoid a recurrence of a problem that has already been treated. Whenever possible, Empire Physical Medicine & Pain Management uses non-invasive forms of treatment.
