Chiropractic Adjustment (Spinal Manipulation)
When joints are not used, or used improperly, this can result in decreased range of motion or even pain. Manual manipulation, or forcing the joint to move to its full degree of motion, restores proper mobility to that joint. This manipulation will ‘reset’ the muscles surrounding the joint that may have been compensating for its improper use.BOOK AN APPOINTMENT!
Trigger Point Therapy – Myofascial Release Therapy
Muscles that surround a joint can compensate for any improper use of that joint by tightening, and immobilizing the joint. Trigger-point and Myofascial release are two muscle therapies that can relieve this muscle tension. In some cases, these techniques can help allow the joint to be manipulated by the chiropractor in addition to relieving pain caused by muscle tightness.BOOK AN APPOINTMENT!
Flexion-Distraction Therapy
Flexion distraction therapy is a specialized technique, which involves gentle traction, or stretching, combined with flexing the spine. This gentle stretching and flexing allows healing fluids to be taken up by the discs that cushion each vertebrae of the spine. This technique is especially helpful for relieving pain from a herniated disk, but is helpful in many other areas as well.BOOK AN APPOINTMENT!
