Services
Concussion Management
Our concussion management program utilizes Complete Concussion Management Inc. protocols for baseline testing, post-injury assessment, and rehabilitation. We employ neurocognitive testing, balance rehab, and vision therapy to safely guide patients through recovery while monitoring symptoms using the Concussion Tracker app. This evidence-based approach ensures proper return-to-activity timelines for athletes and workers.
Chiropractic Care
We provide comprehensive chiropractic treatments for spine-related conditions including back pain, neck pain, and sciatica. Our techniques incorporate manual adjustments, extremity care, and prenatal-specific approaches to address musculoskeletal imbalances. These non-invasive treatments aim to restore proper alignment, reduce nerve irritation, and improve overall spinal function through personalized care plans.
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services focus on restoring mobility and function through targeted exercise programs and manual therapies. We treat sports injuries, work-related trauma, and chronic pain conditions using evidence-based techniques like therapeutic exercise, soft tissue mobilization, and neuromuscular re-education. Treatment plans emphasize functional recovery and injury prevention through progressive rehabilitation protocols.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy delivers specific wavelengths of light to injured tissues to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation. We use this non-thermal treatment for acute injuries, chronic pain conditions, and post-surgical recovery. The therapy promotes accelerated healing by enhancing cellular metabolism and improving circulation to affected areas without invasive procedures or medication.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy uses motorized traction to gently stretch the spine and relieve pressure on intervertebral discs. This treatment targets disc herniations, degenerative disc disease, and sciatica by creating negative pressure within discs to promote nutrient flow and healing. The computer-controlled process carefully adjusts force to achieve therapeutic decompression while maintaining patient comfort.
