Corrective Chiropractic Care: |

health.

Pediatric Chiropractic Care: |
| |
|
Not all chiropractors see infants and children. While most chiropractors focus merely on the adult population, we
pride ourselves in complete family care. Chiropractic check-ups and adjustments should begin at birth and continue
throughout life to ensure maximum health, vitality, and total wellness.

|
Pre-Natal Chiropractic Care: |
| |
|
Not all chiropractors adjust pregnant women. Both the medical and chiropractic communities now know that chiropractic
care is extremely effective for not only the pregnant mother, but also the baby she is carrying in the womb.
Chiropractic care, when started in the womb, can lead to a healthier childhood and start a young person on the
road to a lifetime of wellness.

Graston Soft Tissue Therapy
This remarkable procedure allows us to detect and treat areas of “scar tissue” or adhesions in the soft tissue, muscles, tendons and ligaments that can lead to pain and dysfunction. In the healing process the body attempts to repair muscles, tendons and ligaments with “scar tissue”, much like the scar that forms on the skin when you have scraped or banged your knee. As you can imagine, that scar tissue is not as strong and flexible as normal, healthy, undamaged tissue. Over time we can have a build-up of this fibrous scar tissue, particularly in the muscles, tendons and ligaments that get a lot of use. This can lead to pain and dysfunction because this replacement tissue lacks the strength and flexibility of healthy tissue (in some areas it may even mat down and entrap a nerve).

Physical Therapy
State-of-the-art physical therapy equipment is available and used in an enjoyable environment with privacy considerations taken in the layout of the facility.
Here is a list of some of the modalities
we use as part of a personalized physical therapy plan:
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a technique we use to promote natural healing and to improve the function of the body. Acupuncture is
administered by inserting needles at very precise acupuncture points on the body. Additionally we often use a micro current
form of electrical stimulation to enhance the benefits of the needle insertions.
The classical Chinese explanation is that channels of energy, called “Chi” in Chinese, run in regular patterns through
the body and over its surface. These energy channels, called meridians, are like rivers flowing through the body to irrigate
and nourish the organs and tissues. An obstruction in the movement of these energy rivers is like a dam that backs up
the flow of energy in one part of the body and restricts the energy flow in other parts of the body.
The meridians can be influenced by treating the acupuncture points with needles or microcurrent electric stimulation.
The acupuncture treatment relieves the obstructions at the blockages, and re-establishes the regular flow through the meridians.
Acupuncture treatments can therefore help the body’s internal organs to correct imbalances in their activities such
as digestion, absorption, and energy production, as well as improve the circulation of energy through the meridians.
Western scientists hypothesize that acupuncture acts to stimulate the nerves to release chemicals into the muscles,
spinal cord, and brain through treatment at the acupuncture points. These chemicals will either change the experience of
pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body’s own internal regulating
system.
Myovision Subluxation Station
Our state of the art Myovision technology will objectively help us detect areas of nerve disturbance as well as documenting
and monitoring your results. The standard tests will measure:
1) sEMG–the amount of electrical current in the
muscles.
2) Thermography–skin temperature along the spine.
Your body can be malfunctioning for months, even years, before you experience any symptoms. Since symptoms are
always the last to show up and the first to go, monitoring the subclinical function of your nervous system is a key part of
maintaining wellness. Myovision can detect disturbances before pain develops. This technology provides vital information
for your chiropractor, who is the only health care specialist trained and licensed in the detection and correction of subluxations.
As a result of this expertise, the highest level of health possible may be within your reach.
Custom Orthotics
Your feet are the foundation of your health. Problems in the feet can set off a chain reaction of symptoms, including uneven
shoe wear, irregular gait, arch pains, knee pain, back pain, and even headaches!
State of the art technology by Foot
Levelers is used to analyze weight distribution and the three arches of your feet. (Visit www.footlevelers.com )
If an examination
concludes that there is a problem, custom-made orthotics may be recommended to correct an anatomically short leg,
pronation problems, or postural and structural abnormalities. If you experience foot pain in your day-to-day activities or in
your sport of choice, custom-made orthotics may be part of the solution.
Nutritional Supplementation
We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patients’ return
to optimal health.
Speaking Engagements and Screenings
Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important health information and unlock the door to improved health and
well-being. We provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. A variety of
lectures are available from ergonomics to information sessions on chiropractic and nutrition. Contact us today to arrange a
screening or lecture at your event or workplace!
