PHYSICAL THERAPIES WE INCORPORATE:
The therapies we use (moist heat, electric muscle stimulation, decompression) and the exercises or stretches we recommend, treat the soft tissues of the body - the muscles, tendons. and ligaments. We have many patients that experience knee or ankle pain, as well as carpal tunnel, elbow and shoulder problems. Not only can chiropractic alleviate spinal problems, but many times problems in the arms and legs will benefit from spinal health! We also incorporate the new "Spider Tech" kinesiology taping when appropriate.
Rehab and Strength 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 at home, in between visits. Recent research shows that these programs, as well as a regular exercise regimen can be valuable for patients with persistent problems related to spinal structure and function.
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!
