Physical therapies
The therapies we use (moist heat, electric muscle stimulation, decompression) plus the exercises and stretches we recommend, help heal the soft tissues of the body - the muscles, tendons. and ligaments. Beyond treating the spine, we treat patients with knee or ankle pain, as well as carpal tunnel, elbow and shoulder problems. We also use "Spider Tech" kinesiology taping when appropriate, and it has provided some amazing results. We recently added COLD LASER THERAPY from Laser Touch One! Low level laser therapy has been beneficial for people suffering from arthritic pain, jaw, neck and back problems, as well as plantar fascitis and ankle issues.
Rehab and Exercise Training
An important part of chiropractic treatment is to teach the patient how to take care of their own body. Our patients are taught exercises or stretches to be done in between visits. Research shows that these programs, as well as a regular Chiropractic care, are invaluable to patients with persistent problems related to spinal structure and function. Especially the YOUNG athletes! Click on the picture below for some interesting information.
Therapeutic Massage
Massage is used in conjunction with Chiropractic care. Therapeutic massage benefits the muscles and connective tissue because it relieves tension by allowing the blood and lymph fluid to flow more efficiently. This revitalizes the muscles and helps them return to a natural, more supple condition.
MYOVISION Thermography
Thermography is a way to read body temperature through infrared imaging. The MYOVISION scanner we use allows us to see the variations in temperature and how that relates to your overall health. A healthy nervous system, along with relaxed muscle fibers, allows the body to function and move as it was designed!
