Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders through manual adjustments. Our Raleigh clinic addresses back pain, neck pain, and joint issues using non-invasive techniques. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced inflammation, and enhanced nervous system function. Dr. Gerdes tailors adjustments to individual needs, ensuring safe, effective relief for acute or chronic conditions.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy alleviates pain from herniated or bulging discs by gently stretching the spine. This non-surgical treatment promotes disc healing and nerve decompression. Ideal for sciatica, spinal stenosis, or post-surgery recovery, sessions last under 20 minutes. Most patients experience significant relief within 610 visits, restoring pain-free movement and spinal health.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in injured tissues. Effective for plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and muscle knots, it accelerates recovery by increasing blood flow and breaking scar tissue. Treatments are brief, with many patients noting improvement after 35 sessions, offering a drug-free alternative for chronic pain.
Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy delivers regenerative light energy to reduce inflammation and pain in deep tissues. Targeting conditions like arthritis or sports injuries, it enhances cellular repair and circulation. Patients receive targeted relief for joint pain, muscle strains, or post-surgical recovery without invasive procedures or downtime.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy combines therapeutic exercises and manual techniques to restore mobility and strength. Customized programs address post-injury recovery, chronic pain, or postural imbalances. Our approach integrates stretching, strengthening, and modalities like heat/cold therapy to optimize functional recovery and prevent re-injury.
