A patented, soft tissue system/movement-based manual technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves by applying a tension to dysfunctional tissues while inducing a stretch under tension.
Addresses soft-tissue tension, adhesion and contracture
Effective for chronic repetitive strain injuries or acute sprains/strains
Decreases pain, stiffness and tissue dysfunction
Improves range of motion
A therapeutic modality used in physical therapy and sports medicine for the treatment of common musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. Acoustic waves generated by the shockwave are driven into chronically injured tissues to trigger biological effects that lead to faster, long-term healing and tissue regeneration.
Targets chronic tissue adhesion and scar tissue
Improve tissue mobility, decrease pain, improve function
Noticeable improvements often after only 1 – 3 treatments
Light energy is penetrated deep into tissue, resulting in a decrease in swelling, acceleration in healing time, and an increase in the pain threshold, due to the release of endorphins.
Fast, safe, and very effective
Decreases healing time
Effective for osteoarthritis, tendonitis, muscle strains, ligaments sprains
Utilizes traditional Chinese medicine concepts in conjunction with current research on neurophysiology, neuroanatomy and pathophysiology to stimulate healing, decrease inflammation, and decrease pain based on the particular diagnosis.
- Stimulates healing in both acute and chronic injury
- Natural treatment option for reducing pain and inflammation
- Supported by research for the treatment of osteoarthritis
A non-invasive manual procedure that utilizes the highly refined skills a chiropractor develops during four intensive years of study. When indicated, manipulation of the joints in the body, often to the spine, is used to reduce pain, improve joint mobility, and restore proper function to the area.
Highly controlled, pain-free low-risk therapy
Often immediate improvements when the joint is the pain causing structure
Part of a broader treatment plan; not a stand-alone therapy
The treatment of trigger points or muscle knots by inserting a fine acupuncture needle into the problematic muscle to partially or fully release the trigger point. Dry needling is complimented well with manual/manipulative therapy and corrective exercises for effective management of both chronic and acute pain.
Target deep knots and adhesions beyond manual therapy reach
Restore normal mobility to restricted tissues
Address the underlying changes that occur in tissue over time
An innovative, patented form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that effectively breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions. The technique utilizes specially designed stainless steel instruments to treat areas exhibiting soft-tissue fibrosis or chronic inflammation.
Provides improved diagnostic ability & accuracy
Fosters faster rehabilitation/recovery
Resolves chronic conditions thought to be permanent
Reflexology is a focused pressure technique, usually directed at the feet or hands. It is based on the premise that there are zones and reflexes on different parts of the body which correspond to and are relative to all parts, glands and organs of the entire body.
Reduces stress
Helps with the digestive system – colitis, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome
Addresses hormonal conditions – PMS, hot flashes, menopausal symptoms
The Bowen Technique is a unique muscle and connective tissue therapy that stimulates the whole body to heal itself, often profoundly. It works by restoring balance in the autonomic nervous system, so it addresses the entire body and not just a single complaint. It can provide relief from a wide variety of health issues from pain and injury to acute or chronic health problems, and it is safe to use on anyone from elite athletes to the chronically ill.
Migraines and other types of headaches
Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome
Emotional and psychological stress
Cupping utilizes negative pressure to separate – pull – the skin and subcutaneous tissue away from the underlying layers of muscle and fascia. A plastic cup is placed on the skin and a pump is used to draw air out, creating a vacuum. This separation of tissues allows for improved blood flow, increased lymphatic drainage, and improved cellular function and mobility in the tissues.
- Increase local circulation
- Decrease fascial restrictions
- Soothe sore and tired muscles
