Active Release Techniques
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a hands-on method targeting muscles, tendons, and nerves to resolve adhesions and restore mobility. It effectively treats carpal tunnel, sports injuries, and chronic pain by reintroducing normal tissue function. Combined with chiropractic adjustments, ART accelerates recovery for soft-tissue injuries.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore joint mobility through manual spinal and extremity manipulations. Techniques like Diversified, Activator Methods, and Sacro-Occipital Technique address misalignments, reducing pain and improving nervous system function. This approach promotes natural healing without invasive procedures.
Postural Therapy
Egoscue Postural Therapy uses customized stretches and exercises to realign the body, alleviating musculoskeletal pain. By strengthening weak muscles and correcting imbalances, this non-invasive method restores proper posture and function, preventing recurring injuries.
Graston Technique
Graston Technique employs specialized tools to detect and break down scar tissue in muscles and tendons. It accelerates healing for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and fibromyalgia by enhancing blood flow and restoring tissue elasticity.
Functional Movement Assessment
Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) identifies movement pattern dysfunctions causing pain. By evaluating mobility and stability, we create targeted corrective exercises to improve biomechanics, reduce discomfort, and prevent future injuries.
