Cryotherapy
The application of cold or ice used to compress and reduce swelling in the tissues. Surface cooling restricts blood flow, numbs painful area's, and relaxes muscle spasms.


Moist Heat

Moist Heat
Applying moist heat to your body increases blood flow to the tissues, improves joint function, and increases metabolism. When a muscle tissue relaxes joint and muscle function improve. This therapy can also increase
bood and lymph circulation.




Interferential Electro-Therapy

Interferential Electro-Therapy
Interferential therapy is a treatment to aid in the relief of pain and the promotion of soft tissue healing. Waves of electrical impulses intersect below the skin surface and prompt the body to secrete endorphins and other natural pain killers.



Spinal Adjustments

A chiropractic adjustment is a specific force applied in a specific direction to normalize nervous system and spinal dysfunction.


Ultrasound

Ultrasound
Ultrasound is used as a therapeutic treatment for soft tissue injuries. Sound waves penetrated the deep tissues in the body breaking up scar tissue and giving the patient a warm relaxing feeling. It also works great on the
bursal tissue of the body.



Myofascial Release

A trigger point is an area of uncontrolled muscle tightness. This tenderness can interfere with normal muscle function causing weakness and loss of range of motion. Myofascial release is a highly effective way to reduce muscle spasm and relax a hyperactive muscle.


Intersegmental Traction

Intersegmental Traction
Introducing a passive wave of motion into the spine of a patient is a great way to prepare for a spinal adjustment. Most patients find this relaxing and therapeutic as motion re-enters their spine.




 

Radiographic Examination

Rehabilitation
Every patient must participate in some for of rehabilitation. Spinal exercises and strengthening are important for maintaining your spine between adjustments.


 

 

Radiographic Examination

Radiographic Examination
We have an onsite x-ray facility to handle your radiographic examination in the office. The importance of a visual guide of your subluxation compounded with other findings can make your care more precise.


 

Orthotics
"Ouch!" That first step can be painful in the morning. Stretching of the soft tissue on the under side of the foot can place extreme pressure on the rear foot bone causing a heal spur and/or a condition of plantar fascitis. The stretching of the soft tissue can contribute to an uneven walking foundation and fallen arches, causing a compensatory reaction traveling up your body often resulting in knee, hip and low back pain.

Chiropractic recongnizes this uneven gait and wear and tear of your feet and it's contribution to spinal subluxation. Your chiropractor will prescribe custom fit orthotics to help relieve the pressure on the foot arch and stabilize your gait and posture helping you to achieve greater levels of health and wellness.
