Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions through manual adjustments and joint mobilization. By restoring proper spinal alignment and nervous system function, we alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall wellness. Treatments address acute injuries, chronic pain, and preventive care for active individuals.
Active Release Techniques
Active Release Techniques (ART) are patented soft-tissue treatments that break down scar tissue and adhesions in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This hands-on method resolves overuse injuries, repetitive strain conditions, and movement restrictions, providing rapid pain relief and restoring normal tissue function for athletes and active patients.
Functional Movement Assessments
Functional Movement Screens (FMS) and Selective Functional Movement Assessments (SFMA) identify biomechanical imbalances and movement dysfunctions. These evidence-based evaluations detect compensatory patterns that contribute to pain or injury, guiding personalized corrective exercise programs to improve performance and prevent future issues.
Corporate Wellness
Our corporate wellness programs deliver on-site chiropractic care and injury prevention strategies for Capital District businesses. By addressing workplace musculoskeletal stressors through ergonomic assessments and hands-on treatments, we reduce absenteeism, enhance productivity, and promote employee well-being through preventive care.
Selective Functional Movement Assessment
The Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) is a comprehensive diagnostic system that analyzes full-body movement patterns to identify the root causes of musculoskeletal pain. This approach combines clinical movement tests with targeted treatments to address dysfunctional patterns contributing to chronic discomfort and mobility limitations.
