About Us

OUR SERVICES

ADJUSTMENTS

 

Spinal manipulation, also called spinal manipulative therapy or manual therapy, combines moving and jolting joints,  exercise, and physical medicine. It's designed to relieve pressure on joints, reduce inflammation, and improve nerve function. It's often used to treat back, neck, shoulder, and headache pain, and chronic pain symptoms.

ELECTRO-MUSCLE STIMULATION

 

Electrical muscle stimulation, also known as neuromuscular electrical stimulation or electro-myo-stimulation, is the elicitation of muscle contraction using electric impulses. With continued application, not only will cause strengthening of the targeted area and help it relax by increasing blood flow and circulation in both directions.

POST CONCUSSION SCREENING 
  
We use a combination of vestibular and motion testing to gauge the patients current mental function. In the event of a head injury due to an accident, this information provides a measurement of approx. how severe the injury is and how it has affected the patient. It gives a clearer picture toward the road to recovery and helps us get the patient to the right specialist for continued care if needed!
DRY NEEDLING - NEW OFFER!

 

Dry needling is also called trigger point dry needling or myofascial trigger point dry needling. It is done by acupuncturists, some chiropractors, medical doctors, and some physical therapists (PTs) to treat myofascial pain. The word “myofascial” is made up of the roots “myo” (which refers to muscle) and “fascia” (which refers to the tissue that connects muscle)

ULTRASOUND THERAPY

 

Ultrasound therapy is the use of sound waves to treat medical problems, especially musculoskeletal problems like inflammation from injuries (sprains, tendinitis, bursitis). It has been a popular therapy for decades, it is a modality that has been used since the 50's to help heal patients with inflammation and pain.

PARAFFIN BATH TREATMENTS

 

Paraffin wax treatments are fast-acting, drug-free, and versatile, providing heat therapy for many different applications from arthritis joint pain relief to salon hand, foot, and facial services.

INFRARED THERAPY

 

Infrared therapy is a method that uses light to treat acute or chronic pain. It is a simple and painless therapy that is being studied for use in various fields of medicine

ICE - MOIST HEAT THERAPY

​

ICE therapy treatment is applied by way of a massage and helps decrease the blood flow a fluid to the applied area. This helps by reducing inflammation and pain in the applied area. MOIST & DRY HEAT Therapy is used to increase your skin temperature with very little increase in the temperature of deeper areas of your body. Thus allowing your muscles to relax and increase blood flow to the area. Allowing tissue to heal and promote better stretching. 

NON SURGICAL DECOMPRESSION

 

Spinal decompression therapy, also known as non-surgical spinal decompression, is a practice that utilizes spinal decompression tables to relieve pain caused by bulging or herniated disc tissue. It allows your spine to move back into place and heal, alleviating the pain this condition causes and allowing you to ignore expensive surgery!

ACTIVE PHYSICAL REHABILITATION

Active Rehabilitation is an exercise-based program designed to improve your level of function and prevent you from injuring yourself in the future. An active rehabilitation program usually begins after an injury that leaves you unable to work, play, or perform daily activities with family and loved ones. This is a big step in the road to rehabilitation.
