Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a healthcare profession focused on the musculoskeletal system. Through years of schooling, continuing education and clinical practice, licensed doctors of chiropractic can diagnose, treat and prevent issues related to the spine and extremities. They do so using hands-on manipulation and alternative treatments. Our clinic predominantly uses diversified techniques as it incorporates many methods. Chiropractors also utilize tools such as heat, e-stim, laser and ultrasound when necessary and may refer you to massage therapy, physical therapy or an alternative form of care. The goal is to assist the body’s natural healing ability, alleviate pain, improve range of motion and improve daily function.

Therapeutic Massage

Massage therapy does more than make you feel good, it can help your body achieve balance and health. Massage therapy offers a natural treatment approach which relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our chiropractic office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is complementary to chiropractic care. Each massage therapy plan is tailored to meet the patient’s unique pain condition or injury. The benefits of massage therapy may include the increase of blood circulation, a localized reduction in swelling and the relaxation of muscles. Massage has been known to relieve muscle pain and spasms, increase a patient’s range of motion, while also aiding in a patient’s recovery. Some investigative studies have even indicated that a single session of massage may help boost your immune system!

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a technique where needles are inserted in specific sites across the body for balancing the flow of energy within the body. There are many different ways to perform acupuncture so if one style does not resonate another may. Western practitioners view the acupuncture points as places to stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue to boost the body’s natural painkillers and increase blood flow. Patients who have bleeding issues should mention this to the practitioner before treatment to prevent unnecessary bruising.

Deep Tissue Laser Therapy

Low level laser therapy uses red light diodes to facilitate healing. By stimulating the cells in the treatment area, it fosters tissue repair and speeds up the healing process. This therapy is a great compliment to chiropractic care. We have seen it return athletes to their sport, heal intervertebral discs, and alleviate chronic foot and joint pain faster than without. The only unfortunate part of laser therapy is insurance (other than auto and workers compensation) will not cover it. Ask your chiropractor if laser therapy could help you.
