- Chiropractic Manipulation- which is many times referred to as the "adjustment" is one of the more commonly applied treatment options. The purpose of the manipulation is to restore joint motion through the application of a controlled force into the restricted joint. Restoration of normalized joint movement alleviates pain and muscle tightness which further allows for improved healing. Medical Literature points out that joints that are allowed to remain in dysfunction (restricted) begin to degenerate.
- Active Release Technique®- is the gold standard in soft tissue treatment. This soft tissue technique uses patient motion and provider hands on treatment to fix the problem or problems. This technique is so unique that it has been granted a medical patent. In addition providers must complete extensive hands on instruction as well as certification testing before being able to apply the technique in practice. This patented technique is utilized by many high-end, Olympic, and professional athletes; why not get treated like a pro too.
- Sports/ Functional Therapy- Active functional therapies take aim at the underlying problem and don't just address the symptomatic complaint. This improved clinical approach helps decrease the patient's short term complaints, such as pain, but also protects against future return/relapse of the symptomatic condition. Why chase symptoms when the solution may be right under your nose (anatomically that is).
- Nutritional Counseling- The standard or average American diet leaves quite a bit to be desired when one takes nutritive content/value into consideration. Should we supplement, and with what? There are a variety of treatment interventions that can be integrated into one's routine to foster return to maximal health and vitality. Whether it's fatigue, seasonal sickness, obesity, athletic supplementation, etc we can help you make informed decisions.
- Graston Technique®- is another treatment option that is very effective in cases of long-standing or chronic pain and soft tissue (muscle, tendon, and ligament) dysfunction. The Graston Technique® (GT) Instruments, while enhancing the clinician's ability to detect fascial adhesions and restrictions, have been clinically proven to achieve quicker and better outcomes in treating both acute and chronic conditions; and this may be a good treatment option for you.
- SuperFeet®- The health of one's lower kinetic chain (including the feet) has a dramatic impact on the health of the rest of the body. Many times people don't realize that instability in the foot can lead to painful skeletal alignment issues that manifest elsewhere. Superfeet orthotics help relieve the pain and discomfort caused by an unsupported foot during everyday activities, sports and work. There is a fit and style for every foot and shoe, and we'd be happy to get you back up and running.
- SpiderTech™ Kinesio Taping- Perhaps in watching the recent Olympics you noticed the brightly colored tape that certain athletes have worn. That brightly colored tape is actually helping our athletes perform at their highest level. The taping technique can be applied with a variety of goals in mind. Some of the more common applications are for: pain control, muscle re-education and facilitation, and in times of injury the reduction of swelling.
