Manipulation Techniques and Therapies
I strive to offer my patients the most specific and gentle chiropractic adjustments. I primarily use DIVERSIFIED Technique when making chiropractic adjustments. This manual technique is characterized by the use of the doctor’s hands to make corrections in the spine and throughout the joints of the body. Diversified technique often involves adjustments referred to as “side posture” for the low back (lumbar spine) and can include “anterior” adjustments of the mid-back (thoracic spine). Additionally, I utilize Flexion-Distraction Technique in the treatment of disc herniations, sciatica, radiculopathies (nerve irritation), and other injuries. These treatments help relieve weakness, numbness, and pains which travel into the buttock and legs. Additional treatments for radicular/traveling pain often involves treatment of muscle spasms with myofascial release technique and stretching exercises.
Treatments that I use for soft tissues (muscles and tendons) injuries include: Myofascial Release Technique, Trigger Point Therapy, Post Isometric Relaxation/Post Facilitated Stimulation, and more. Electric Muscle Stimulation, Ultrasound, Traction, and Hot and Cold Therapies are also utilized in the office.
