The Benefits of Chiropractic Care

Chiropractors are licensed healthcare professionals who primarily concentrate on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of spinal disorders and other mechanical conditions of the musculoskeletal system. Chiropractic care places a strong emphasis on the body’s ability to heal itself without employing surgery, drugs, or other medical measures.

Patients often experience relief from a wide range of painful and dangerous symptoms by seeking quality chiropractic care. At [business_name], we address countless health and wellness issues using a variety of approaches. Read more about some of our specific services below.

Modalities Offered

Manual Adjustment

The “classic” chiropractic treatment, manual adjustments are done by hand to perform a broad spectrum of coordinated contact movements. Manual adjustments may be used to address various patient health and wellness concerns. Applying direct pressure at specific points, we can dramatically improve the function of muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons, and other soft bodily tissues.

The Activator Method

This therapeutic approach requires the use of a specific hand-held tool called the “activator.” A spring-loaded, mechanical instrument, the activator aids in chiropractic adjustment by delivering a rapid, low-force impulse with extreme precision. An activator adjustment can accomplish many of the same benefits as a manual adjustment by improving the body’s alignment and helping with overall body function.

Spinal Decompression

Using a traction table, we employ spinal decompression to gently stretch the spine. By altering the position and force placement of the spine, spinal decompression reduces pressure on the spinal discs (gel-like cushions that separate every vertebrae in the spine). This process can cause bulging and herniated discs to retract, which can relieve back pain, improve flexibility, and promote healing by moving nutrient-rich fluids and oxygen to these discs.

Rehabilitation

In the wake of an injury or a surgical procedure, many people can benefit greatly from a targeted physical rehabilitation regimen. When patients come to us for rehabilitation, we will use a combination of adjustments and other modalities. For post-treatment care at home, we generally recommend a program of exercises to help in recovery from physical trauma and to rebuild former mobility and range of movement.

Laser Therapy

As part of a comprehensive chiropractic care program, laser therapy has proven to be an effective way to manage pain for many patients. Using a targeted light spectrum, laser therapy helps to ease inflammation, encourage nerve regeneration, and generally speed the healing process for individuals who have suffered injuries or are living with chronic pain.

Corrective Exercises

Whether part of a prescribed physical rehabilitation program or for general preventative or restorative purposes, chiropractic exercises can be powerful complements to regular chiropractic office visits. The pelvic tilt and the supine bridge are just a couple of exercises that virtually anyone can do at home to improve their overall health and wellness. When you come to us for treatment, corrective exercises may be one way that your treatment continues outside of our office!

IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization)

IASTM is a specialized technique used to address soft tissue dysfunction and promote healing. This method involves the use of handheld instruments to detect and treat areas of scar tissue, fascial restrictions, and adhesions in the muscles and connective tissues. By applying controlled pressure and specific movements, we can effectively break down adhesions and stimulate blood flow, resulting in improved range of motion, reduced pain, and enhanced tissue healing.

Active Release Technique

Active Release Technique (ART) is a non-invasive treatment method that targets soft tissue injuries and repetitive stress conditions. It involves the manual manipulation of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia to release tension, reduce adhesions, and restore optimal function. During an ART session, we will use our hands to apply precise tension and movement patterns to the affected area, promoting healing, relieving pain, and enhancing performance.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is a therapeutic technique used to manipulate soft tissues in the body, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Through various manual techniques such as kneading, stroking, and applying pressure, massage therapy aims to reduce muscle tension, improve blood circulation, promote relaxation, and alleviate pain. In a chiropractic setting, massage therapy is often integrated as part of a holistic treatment plan to complement other chiropractic interventions and enhance overall well-being.

Cervical Decompression

Cervical decompression is a specialized treatment that focuses on the neck region, specifically the cervical spine. It is a non-surgical technique designed to relieve pressure on the spinal discs and nerves in the neck. By utilizing a mechanical traction device, we gently stretch and decompress the cervical spine, allowing for the retraction of herniated discs, reducing nerve compression, and alleviating symptoms such as neck pain, headaches, and radiating arm pain.

Auto Injury

Auto injuries refer to injuries sustained as a result of motor vehicle accidents. We are well-versed in assessing and addressing the musculoskeletal damage that can occur during such incidents, and employ a comprehensive approach that may include chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapies, rehabilitative exercises, and pain management techniques. By tailoring the treatment to the individual’s specific needs, we aim to promote recovery, restore function, and alleviate pain caused by auto injuries.

Ozone Injections

Ozone Injections are safe, affordable, and Effective. We use ozone gas to treat various medical conditions. This approach utilizes the unique properties of ozone to promote healing and reduce inflammation. The injections are administered directly into the affected areas, where ozone’s oxidative potential stimulates circulation, oxygenates tissue, and alleviates pain.
