Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore proper spinal motion using diversified techniques including manual manipulation and instrument-assisted methods. Our providers tailor treatments to individual needs, addressing back pain, neck pain, headaches, and extremity issues through biomechanical and neurological corrections. This non-invasive approach helps patients achieve pain relief and improved function without surgery.
Active Release Technique
ART treats soft tissue adhesions using hands-on manipulation of muscles, tendons, and fascia. This evidence-based method effectively addresses repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel and plantar fasciitis by breaking down scar tissue and restoring normal tissue function. Patients experience rapid pain relief and improved range of motion through targeted treatment protocols.
Graston Technique
Graston Technique uses specialized stainless steel instruments to detect and treat soft tissue restrictions. This effective method addresses conditions like tendonitis and IT band syndrome by mobilizing scar tissue and promoting healing. Patients benefit from accelerated recovery times and improved functional outcomes through this research-backed approach to soft tissue rehabilitation.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic floor physical therapy addresses pelvic dysfunction through manual therapy and functional training. This specialized treatment helps with urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery by restoring proper muscle function and coordination. Patients receive individualized programs combining education, manual techniques, and targeted exercises for comprehensive pelvic health improvement.
Functional Movement Assessment
Functional movement assessment identifies movement pattern dysfunctions that contribute to pain and injury. Using systems like SFMA and McKenzie Method, we develop targeted rehabilitation programs to correct movement imbalances. This approach helps patients improve performance, prevent injuries, and achieve lasting pain relief through improved biomechanics and movement efficiency.
