About Chiropractic Therapies
- Therapy Modalities – Computerized cervical traction, intersegmental traction, ultrasound and electrical muscle stimulation are among the therapy modalities we can employ to treat disc problems and soft tissue conditions. We can combine these forms of therapy with other treatment methods to create a personalized health and rehabilitation program for you or your loved ones.
- Electrical Muscle Stimulation is a type of therapy that relaxes muscles, reduces muscle spasm, and increases blood flow to relieve pain and speed up healing.
- Intersegmental Traction is a type of therapy that passively exercises and strengthens the spinal muscles and ligaments.
- Cervical Traction is a computerized device that gently stretches, exercises, and strengthens the muscles and ligaments in the neck and upper back.
- Ultrasound therapy is a type of therapy that uses sound waves to relax muscles, reduce muscle spasm, and increase blood flow.
- Soft Tissue Therapies (active release/myofascial release/trigger points) are performed by the doctor to improve range of motion, promote flexibility, decrease pain, and improve recovery time.
- Therapeutic Exercises are prescribed by the doctor and tailored specifically to each individual’s condition. They are designed to strengthen and stabilize the involved areas to provide lasting benefit from treatment.
