This week, we’ll be featuring some of the moms who helped shape our team and the values we carry with us every day.

First up is Dr. Heather Hinshelwood’s mom, Susan Hansen-Engelhard.

“My mom is a licensed therapist, and some of my earliest memories are of watching her dedication and care for her patients. I got my work ethic from her. She continues counseling today, helping patients struggling with addiction and life-altering mental health challenges. In her practice, she also educates patients on the important role nutrition and lifestyle play in mental health.” – Dr. Heather Hinshelwood

Thank you to the mothers, caregivers, and women who lead with compassion, strength, and service to others every day.

We hope you have a Happy Mother’s Day from the Fraum Health family.

May is Arthritis Awareness Month — a reminder that joint pain, stiffness, and inflammation can affect more than just movement.

For many patients, arthritis and nerve irritation can work together to impact balance, confidence, mobility, and overall quality of life.

If you’re experiencing ongoing joint pain, numbness, tingling, burning, or difficulty moving the way you used to, your body may be sending signals worth paying attention to.

At Fraum Health, we help patients in the Lowcountry explore physician-led, non-surgical options for arthritis, nerve pain, neuropathy symptoms, and chronic joint pain — with the goal of helping you move with more comfort and confidence.

We were honored to be part of the 12th Annual Charity Clays Shoot supporting the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Lowcountry at Turkey Hill Plantation.

At Fraum Health, community involvement is something we truly value. Anytime we have the opportunity to get out, connect, and support organizations making a difference in the Lowcountry, we’re all in. We had a great time at this year’s event and are proud to support programs that help provide local youth with impactful afterschool and summer opportunities.

40 years of back pain… and finally relief.

Karen was living with chronic back pain for decades without real answers.

At Fraum, her care went beyond just temporary relief. Through targeted chiropractic treatment, the DX9000 spinal decompression system, and a deeper focus on total wellness— including hormone balance.

Now she’s experiencing:
✔️ Less pain
✔️ Better clarity
✔️ Reduced brain fog
✔️ A body that feels more aligned and supported

If you’ve been living with pain for years, there may be another path forward.

Wellness Wednesday 🦴

What is synovial fluid—and why does it matter?

Today, Dr. Hinshelwood removed excess synovial fluid from a knee affected by both a chronic condition and a recent flare-up.

Synovial fluid is your joint’s natural lubricant. It reduces friction, nourishes cartilage, and helps your joints move smoothly.

Excess fluid can signal irritation inside the joint—often linked to swelling, stiffness, and discomfort.

We help patients across the Lowcountry who are dealing with joint pain explore non-surgical options and treatments designed to help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and support long-term joint health.

At Fraum Health, our patients are cared for by a team that believes in personalized, physician-led care.

Meet Marissa Mitter, MPAS, PA-C

Originally from Southern California, Marissa has called the Lowcountry home since 2014. She brings a strong background in health, movement, and patient-centered care to the Fraum Health team. Before becoming a Physician Assistant, Marissa earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology from Anderson University, where she also competed as a collegiate volleyball player. She later earned her Master of Physician Assistant Studies from Presbyterian College.

Marissa understands how important it is to stay active, independent, and able to enjoy life on Hilton Head — whether that means walking the beach, playing golf or pickleball, traveling, or simply moving through your day with less discomfort.

At Fraum Health, she helps patients explore personalized, non-surgical options for joint pain, neuropathy, and chronic discomfort with a care approach focused on function, mobility, and long-term wellness.

Our team values the compassionate care she brings to our Fraum Health community.

Staying active isn’t just about pushing through… it’s about how your body functions.

Over time, stress, inflammation, and wear can affect how you move, recover, and feel day to day.

That’s where a different approach matters.

At Fraum Health, we focus on supporting the system as a whole so your body can function the way it’s meant to.

Because when function improves, everything else can follow.

Getting older is inevitable… feeling limited doesn’t have to be.

Personalized care. Physician-led. Designed around how you want to live.

Relief is one thing. Restoration is another.

At Fraum Health, we don’t just focus on helping you feel better for the moment…we focus on how your body functions long-term.

Because when movement improves, inflammation is better managed, and the body is supported properly… everything starts to change.

For many people, that means:
✔️ Moving with more ease
✔️ Staying active longer
✔️ Exploring options beyond surgery

Getting older is inevitable… but living with pain doesn’t have to be.

If your body isn’t keeping up with how you want to live, it may be time to take a different approach.

Personalized care. Physician-led. Designed around you.
