This practice helps in promoting quick recovery and also in improving your mood with the help of joint manipulations. To sum up, chiropractors tune up your body to the best of its function.

Acupuncture

Whether you’re dealing with emotional disorders such as anxiety or depression, digestive issues, chronic degenerative diseases, acupuncture is an effective solution to restore your body’s flow of energy and reduce pain.

Graston® Technique

Graston® Technique is a highly effective modality in Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. What exactly does that mean? The technique boils down to our chiropractors being able to effectively treat scar tissue and fascial restrictions while also maintaining range of motion for patients through both training and education.

Soft Tissue Therapy

The soft tissue therapy is a multi-dimensional mechanical form of therapy that is quite effective in helping you recover from body pain, improving your body functions and your entire musculoskeletal health. Chiropractors carry out this therapy by pressing or kneading the soft tissue structures in your body. It has several benefits like managing your pain and trigger points.

Shockwave Therapy

Commonly known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), shockwave therapy is primarily a non-invasive treatment wherein acoustic shockwaves are induced to the injured soft tissues, ultimately resulting in pain relief and faster healing. So, whether you are an athlete or not, facing pain in your tendons, shockwave therapy remains a workable option.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation and Interferential Current

Electrical muscle stimulation or E-stim, is yet another part of physical therapy that can treat conditions ranging from back pains to strokes and urinary incontinence. This treatment focuses mainly on mimicking the actions of the signals sent by the neurons to target muscles and nerves.

These programs are tailored to every patient's specific conditions and include detailed instructions and pictures to ensure you do them the right way.

Therapeutic Ultrasound
