Chiropractic adjustments are used to reestablish the body’s ability to move properly while also relieving pain. Each adjustment is tailored specifically to the patient and a variety of techniques can be used to achieve our goals of restoring and maintaining mobility.

Often when the body’s ability to move properly is diminished the muscles in those areas become overworked. We use myofascial techniques to reduce adhesions within the muscles and increase flexibility. This allows the effects of the adjustment become more long-term.

Electrical muscle stimulation is used to relieve pain, reduce swelling, strengthen and repair soft tissue including muscles that are weakened or injured. This is done by sending an electrical impulse to the area to mimic what would happen in the body if the muscle were contracting on its own. This technique can be used in conjunction with adjustments to further restore mobility and pain relief.

As patient’s progress and are no longer having significant pain we can implement an exercise regiment. These regiments will help the patient establish better movement patterns to prevent further injury and maintain a pain free life.

K-taping is used when we want to maintain motion in an area but also promote further healing. Taping can help reduce inflammation and pain, increase circulation, improve mobility, and prevent future injuries. It is often used in cases with muscle strains, edema, bruise reduction, rotator cuff injuries, etc.
