Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a healing discipline firmly grounded in science. Chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy provides the best overall results for chronic spinal pain syndromes, despite the duration of pretreatment pain (5). Few other health care interventions have been assessed as extensively as chiropractic manipulation, both in terms of safety and effectiveness. There have been at least six formal government studies into chiropractic worldwide over the last 25 years and all have concluded that contemporary chiropractic care is safe, effective, cost-effective and have recommended public funding for chiropractic services.

Active Release Technique (A.R.T.) / Hands-on Soft Tissue Therapy:

Active Release Technique (A.R.T.) is a movement-based massage technique utilized to effectively release any accumulation of scar tissue. It is a revolutionary proven approach used to successfully diagnose and treat cumulative trauma disorders, whether short or long standing. It has been shown that the use of A.R.T. commonly provides 50% improvement after the first to third treatment (1) helping to "actively release" the involved area. Active Release Technique (A.R.T.) effectively breaks down the accumulation of adhesions and scar tissue that form sticky abnormal bands of tissue which grows together in an abnormal way. Adhesions develop between joints and stick or attach to muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels, resulting in restricted motion and or numbness or tingling if nervous structures are obstructed.

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Therapy

An effective method utilized to break down adhesions and scar tissue. These instruments vibrate and give off sound waves when scar is detected and treated allowing our Chiropractor to effectively locate the exact tissue involved and know the extent of injury and or the amount of improvement over time with treatment.

Active Rehabilitation / Home Exercise

We will determine and test for muscular weakness or inhibition in the body and then provide directed home exercises designed to improve and establish long-term relief and overall functional ability to help patients return to normal activities of daily living and help minimize potential reoccurrence of pain.

Custom Foot Orthotics

Custom foot orthotics are fabricated inserts worn inside shoes, to support and improve alignment and function of the feet. This provides cushioning and redistribution of force during ground contact, which most importantly helps to ease your pain and relieve stress from the tissues that hold you together.

Kinesio Taping

The Kinesio Taping Method is applied over muscles to reduce pain and inflammation, relax overused tired muscles, and to support muscles in movement on a 24hr/day basis. It is a non-restrictive type of taping which allows for full range of motion.

Kinesio Tape is used for anything from headaches to foot problems and everything in between. Examples include: muscular facilitation or inhibition in pediatric patients, carpal tunnel syndrome, lower back strain/pain (joint dysfunction, herniated discs), knee conditions, shoulder conditions, hamstring, groin injury, rotator cuff injury, whiplash, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, patella tracking, pre and post surgical edema, ankle sprains, athletic preventative injury method, and as a support method.
