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 Therapy(ART) and Graston Technique are techniques we use to facilitate adhesion and fibrosis removal from muscles, tendons, and ligaments to 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. Ice, heat, proprioceptive taping, traction, functional exercises, and elastic tubing may be used depending on each case.
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.
