Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.
Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
Repetitive Stress
We work with both employee and employer to treat work-related injuries, while educating all affected parties so that further incidents may be prevented.
Repetitive motion injuries have become all too common in today's workplace. Sitting at computer workstations for prolonged periods, compromising physical positions, lifting, driving and so on can all have significant, negative impacts on muscles, ligaments and joints. The risk of experiencing these injuries increases if these activities are executed incorrectly or if the workplace is poorly designed for human interaction. Effective treatment requires education and understanding of proper ergonomics, along with a focus on the treatment itself.
Through examination, corrective treatment and health and safety education, our goals include:
- Facilitating rapid recovery
- Minimizing work absence
- Protecting the company's most valuable asset – YOU
Injuries sustained on the job should always be immediately reported to your employer. Workers compensation laws and benefits can get somewhat complex, but it is important to seek out treatment for any injuries early to ensure the best result. ProHealth specializes in workers compensation injuries and will assist you with questions regarding treatment and negotiating the workers compensation system.
At G.I.S. we focus on non-invasive procedures aimed at restoring full function without surgical intervention. Our doctors are skilled in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of a wide range of these injuries including:
- Carpal tunnel
- Tendonitis
- Neck pain
- Back pain

Massage
In addition to providing numerous general health benefits, massage therapy is often utilized as a complementary component in the treatment of many health problems.
Massage therapy is one of the oldest forms of healing in existence and can have an overwhelmingly positive and profound impact upon your physical, mental and emotional states. Whether seeking complimentary treatment for medical care, recovery from an injury, reducing stress, promoting good health and well being, enhancing physical performance, or simply indulging yourself in a well-deserved reward, massage therapy may be just what you need.

In its purest form, massage therapy seeks to empower the mind, the will and the body's natural healing capabilities to improve one's health. This approach has long been underemphasized in traditional western medicine, but is steadily gaining recognition as awareness of complimentary and alternative treatments increases.
Human beings require touch. It facilitates our ability to nurture, interact, empathize and relate. Massage therapy provides much more than physical and emotional healing. Massage is a tool with which we can reduce the negative effects of modern life.
Testimonials
I suffer with herniated discs, which began in 1987 due to heavy lifting. Surgery was recommended, but I refused. The healthcare at Gwinnett Injury Specialist works great for me and the doctors and staff are among the best I've ever experienced. I would most definitely refer others to the clinic.
– Roy Crayton
I first came to [GIS] in April of this year after an Auto Accident. My shoulder was injured so badly, I had to have surgery on it. After I healed from surgery, my surgeon suggested I see the doctors at ProHealth for treatment of my back, and physical therapy on my shoulder.
I give the doctors and staff at ProHealth an A +.
– R. E. Thompson
About 2 years ago, I saw Dr. Willis for severe lower back, hip and leg pain, which had been occurring off and on for many years. I went to other doctors and got no help. I was told I could have surgery, but with a 50% success rate, I said "no". The treatment at ProHealth has always given me good results and has kept me working at 100%. I have referred many of my friends and family members to Dr. Willis.
– Ken Williams
In 2002, I was referred to Gwinnett Injury by my doctor. I had experienced job injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome and back surgery. My pain was very severe and could not be helped by an orthopedist, a neurologist or physical therapist. The treatment was a process, taking a few weeks of healing, and Dr. Willis is a happy part of the process. He and his staff are great and I have referred several patients to his office, including my wife!
– Akoli Wallace
In March of 2006, I was diagnosed by a neurologist as having degenerated discs and it was very severe, causing many symptoms which disabled me. I am extremely pleased with the entire experience I had at ProHealth. Now I'm back to complete activity with very little pain or discomfort. My husband and I both see Dr. Willis.
– Jeanette Crayton
After being treated by numerous other specialists with no results, it was recommended that I see Dr. Willis for my pain and nerve damage. Dr. Willis has been a life saver, I always know that I will feel much better after the treatment. Also, I can't say enough good things about Dr. Halleck's medical care. The combination of the two have made an overwhelming difference in my life.
