Chiropractic Therapies We Use
Active Release Technique (ART) is a soft tissue treatment that helps alleviate pain caused by muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries. The therapist uses their hands to apply tension to release the affected tissue. This allows for accelerated blood flow, nerve function, and improved range of motion. This therapy is often used to treat athletes, headaches, neck pain, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Interferential current (IFC) is a type of electrical stimulation that uses low-frequency waves to provide pain relief. IFC works by sending electrical impulses through the skin to the underlying muscles and nerves. These electrical impulses help to block pain signals from reaching the brain. IFC is often used to treat chronic pain, muscle spasms, and nerve pain.
Intersegmental traction is a type of therapy that uses a mechanical device to apply gentle pressure to the spine. This therapy helps to stretch and align the vertebrae, relieving pressure on the nerves. Intersegmental traction is often used to treat back pain, neck pain, and headaches.
KT taping is a type of therapy that uses special tape to support and stabilize the muscles and joints. KT tape is applied to the affected area in a specific protocol to help relieve pain and promote healing. KT tape is often used to treat sports injuries and repetitive use injuries.
