Chiropractic Care: Examination, evaluation, diagnosis and personalized treatment. Chiropractic treatment is a non-invasive healthcare practice that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders, with an emphasis on spinal health. It involves the manual manipulation of the spine and other joints in the body to improve mobility, reduce pain, and promote healing. Chiropractors may also use other techniques, such as massage, exercise, and nutritional counseling, to support overall health and wellness. Chiropractic treatment is commonly used to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain, and is considered safe and effective when performed by a trained professional.

• Adjustments: Diversified Technique, Thompson Technique, Activator Technique, Webster Technique, Gonstead Technique, TMJ 
• ART: Active Release Technique is a soft tissue technique used to quickly resolve soft-tissue disorders by removing adhesions typically caused by overuse injuries or repetitive movements.
• Graston: Scraping of the muscle tissue to improve scar tissue adhesions, trigger point and stimulate blood flow.
• Kinesiology Taping: Taping method designed to facilitate healing by relieving pain and decreasing inflammation while supporting muscles, tendons, and ligaments. When the body is injured there is an increase in lymphatic fluid, which causes an increase in the amount of pressure on the tissue. The correct application of the tape will lift the skin, thereby relieving the pressure and allow for increased movement of lymphatic fluid contains white blood cells and eliminate waste. Additionally, Kinesiology tape will improve circulation without restricting range of motion.

Shockwave Therapy: Shockwave therapy is a medical treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to promote healing in the body. It is a non-invasive procedure that can be used to treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries, such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, shoulder impingement, and other types of chronic pain. The sound waves stimulate the body's natural healing processes, including increased blood flow and metabolism, tissue regeneration, and reduction of pain and inflammation. Shockwave therapy is typically performed on an outpatient basis and can be an effective alternative to surgery or other invasive treatments.

Massage Services: All services are performed by a licensed medical professional. Our massage therapy focuses on muscle health and recovery as well as on injury related areas of athletes and active individuals.

• 30 Minute TMJ/Facial/Neck Massage: This massage focuses on the soft tissue structures of the jaw, face and neck and is helpful in reducing headaches, TMJ dysfunction, whiplash injuries, cervical sprain/strain injuries and nerve impingement caused by compression.
• 60 Minute Lymphatic Drainage Massage: Lymphatic drainage massage helps to relieve swelling and lymphatic blockage that occurs after medical treatment, surgery or other medical conditions. When the lymphatic system is blocked it can slow recovery. During this massage, fluid and waste products are released from the tissue by manipulation to specific areas and moving that waste through the lymphatic system to be flushed from the body and improve circulation. This may be helpful with individuals suffering from constipation, endometriosis, gastritis, acid reflux, water retention and weight loss.
• 60/90/120 Minute Bodywork massage: Bodywork therapy is a type of therapeutic treatment that focuses on manipulating and releasing tension from the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, tendons, and fascia. It can include a range of techniques, such as massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and craniosacral therapy. Bodywork therapy is used to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and promote relaxation and stress relief. It can be helpful in treating a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, injuries, and stress-related disorders. Bodywork therapy is often used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, such as physical therapy, chiropractic care, or acupuncture.

Functional Mobility & Stretching: Functional mobility aims to improve movement patterns and enhance daily activities by focusing on flexibility, strength, and coordination. This treatment often simulates real-life movements to enhance stability and mobility in various joints and muscle groups. Stretching, on the other hand, involves elongating muscles and tendons to improve flexibility, increase range of motion, and reduce muscle tension, aiding in injury prevention and overall muscle health. Incorporating functional mobility and stretch therapy into a fitness routine promotes improved physical performance, decreased risk of injury, and enhanced overall well-being.

• BPC-157 (Body Protective Compound-157) is a peptide derived from a protein found in human gastric juice. It has garnered attention for its potential therapeutic effects on various bodily functions, including tissue repair, inflammation reduction, and gut health improvement. BPC-157 is believed to promote healing in muscles, tendons, ligaments, and other tissues by stimulating the body's natural repair mechanisms.

Physiotherapy: Physiotherapy focused on optimizing movement and function in individuals of all ages and abilities. It involves the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of musculoskeletal, neurological, and respiratory conditions using various therapeutic techniques and exercises. Physiotherapists design personalized treatment plans to address specific impairments or disabilities and help individuals regain mobility, strength, and flexibility. This includes recovering from an injury, preventing further damage, relieving pain, or learning to live with a chronic condition. Techniques such as manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, modalities like heat or cold therapy, and education on proper body mechanics are commonly employed to aid in rehabilitation. The overarching goal of physiotherapy is to enhance an individual's overall quality of life by promoting physical well-being and independence.

Acupuncture: Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points in the body. The goal of acupuncture is to balance the flow of energy or "Qi" in the body, which is believed to promote healing and improve overall health. Acupuncture is commonly used to treat a wide range of conditions, including pain, stress, and digestive issues.

Dry Needling & Cupping: Dry needling is a therapeutic technique used by some healthcare professionals to treat muscle pain and dysfunction. The technique involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific trigger points or knots in muscles, with the goal of releasing tension and reducing pain. Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine, dry needling is based on Western anatomy and physiology, and the needles are not usually left in place for an extended period of time.

Interactive Muscle Therapy (Hunter Method): Hunter Method is an interactive muscle therapy technique that changes muscle memory back to optimal tone. By using specialized touch and movement, this hybrid massage therapy can help to locate and quickly resolve soft tissue disorders.
