Developed in 1951 by Dr. Yoshio Nakatiani, M.D., PhD, it is a method of examining the meridian system of the body through electronic measurements. It proved to alter the way Chiropractic acupuncture would be practiced throughout the world. After electronically measuring the meridians, results were manually calculated using a staggered numbering system for graphing. The method of Ryodoraku was refined and renamed Electro Meridian Imaging (EMI) by Dr. John Amaro in 1982.

read moreWe utilize a laser whenever we feel it will enhance and speed up your response to our treatment. The laser we use is FDA approved and is classified as a "cold" laser, so there is no danger to the patient or doctor. It is very effective in treatment of most joints and soft tissue. It's main advantage is that is has the ability to reduce inflammation, reduce pain and promote healing. We use the Laser in conjunction with our main treatment source of spinal manipulation to reduce a subluxation. So, the laser, like chiropractic acupuncture are adjuctive therapies which may or may not be utilized, depending on the fact that since everyone is different, we all require an unique and specialized treatment plan.
