All of us are unique, so we may not all respond to the same methods of care. Because of this I offer a variety of chiropractic techniques to suit a variety of needs. These include diversified, Cox, Leander, Activator, Thompson (drop), SOT and applied kinesiology. All are custom-designed to what will best fix the problem areas, gently and comfortably. Additionally, I often use both examination and treatment protocols with quantum neurology. Active release technique (ART) and neuromuscular reeducation (NMR) are techniques we use to facilitate adhesion and fibrosis removal from muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This helps restore normal joint alignment and range of motion. It is also extremely helpful in repetitive stress injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome, shoulder impingement syndrome, tennis elbow, and any form of tendonitis or chronic soft tissue injury. |

Learn about Low Level Laser Therapy—this is one of our favorite high-tech therapies in supporting joint, muscle, tendon, and ligament problems. It has a tremendous, non-invasive pain-reducing ability, and is wonderful for relieving headaches. The new, high-power Apollo laser makes most others obsolete. This has 2 watts of power to reach deep problem areas that may not be treated with other systems. Great for deep bone pain, trigger points, dental inflammation, heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, shoulder cartilage and ligament tears, etc. Very safe, VERY effective. Learn more… |
False. Chiropractors are primary care doctors with extensive training in both basic and clinical sciences, and are licensed in all 50 states and many countries throughout the world. The training emphasizes diagnosis and therapy to the neuromuscular and skeletal system. Diagnosis is accomplished through history taking, physical, orthopedic and neurologic examination, and if necessary, x-rays and laboratory analysis. Therapy is performed by a wide variety of techniques including joint manipulation, healing modalities, diet and exercise. Chiropractors do not prescribe drugs or perform surgery.
