Treatment Methods

Chiropractic champions the idea of a holistic approach to health and illness, recognizing the body's inherent ability to heal itself during times of physical injury, mental/emotional or environmental stress. Through painless adjustments of the spine and joints, chiropractors can influence the nervous system and natural defense mechanisms in order to alleviate pain and improve general health.

Specialized instruments are used to break up adhesions within the fascia (fibrous tissue that surrounds muscles, tendons, and ligaments). This allows for increased blood flow, oxygenation, and nutrient exchange within the affected area, which can speed up healing and promote tissue regeneration.

Suction draws fluid into the affected soft tissue, expanding and breaking open tiny blood vessels under the skin. The body replenishes the cupped areas with healthier blood flow and stimulates proper and normal healing at a cellular level.

Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a form of diagnosis using muscle testing as a primary feedback mechanism to examine how a person's body is functioning. When properly applied, an AK diagnosis will reveal different types of "imbalances" which will not show up by most other kinds of testing, and will determine the best form of therapy for the patient.

Cold laser is a low power (no heat or tissue destruction) laser that is excellent for pain reduction, enhanced tissue healing, cell regeneration, and acupuncture meridian therapy.
