- CryotherapyDr. Kase bases his techniques on three important concepts. They are Space, Movement and Cooling. Muscles that are painful and/or inflamed lack space. When the KTM technique is applied to create space, it is helpful in and of itself, but also leads to the opportunity for improved movement and circulation. This space and movement then allows for cooling of the affected muscles, often combined with cryotherapy.
- Manipulation TherapyMost physical therapy and rehab centers put their patients on equipment with simple exercises or on tables with hot packs. Forest Hills Rehabilitation, however, heavily utilizes manual therapy techniques for a more… hands-on approach. Manual Therapy is not the same as massage. Rather, manual therapies scientifically target dysfunction in muscles, tissues, the skeletal, circulatory and lymphatic systems and more.
- Therapeutic ExerciseHowever, many spinal stenosis patients can completely erase their symptoms and get back to enjoying life. Specific therapeutic exercises, stretches, and spinal joint mobilization can open that canal and actually reverse symptoms.
- Chiropractic Injury TreatmentAt Forest Hills Rehabilitation, we understand that car accidents will always happen as long as cars are on the road and humans are driving them. But we believe that when these motor vehicle accidents happen, whether due to human or mechanical errors, everyone involved should get the best treatment suited for car accident victims under whatever circumstance.
- AcupunctureWith roots in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture utilizes needles, strategically placed in points of the body to stimulate nerves, muscles and connective tissues to boost your body’s natural painkillers and promote healthy energy flow and balance in the body. Acupuncture is very effective at relieving pain and discomfort associated with many conditions and diseases. Accordingly, acupuncture may be a useful and recommended therapy to help you recover more quickly and get back to a pain-free quality of life.
- Disc Herniation TreatmentSpinal Stenosis occurs when the tube that the spinal cord sits in "the canal" closes down. This can happen acutely, as in the case with a disc herniation (discussed above) or over a longer period of time, as in the case with degenerative arthritis - common in the aging population.
