- Deep Tissue MassageNeuromuscular reeducation is a form of therapy that re-educates the nervous system in order to improve and regain proper movement patterns. This therapy involves manual muscular stretching (PIR – post isometric relaxation/PNF – proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation), myofascial release techniques, balance/coordination exercises, and deep-tissue massage. Neuromuscular reeducation is very effective in reducing or eliminating the devastating cycle of pain.

- Manipulation TherapyWhile chiropractors offer a variety of treatments for musculoskeletal conditions, about 80% of patients visiting a chiropractor receive some form of spinal manipulation. Spinal manipulation is a unique form of hands-on treatment (manual therapy) that is distinct from other forms of manual therapy such as massage and mobilization. While chiropractors sometimes refer to spinal manipulation as an “adjustment” or part of an adjustment, the term spinal manipulation is easier to define, more precise, and more widely used worldwide.
- Spinal DecompressionAxial Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical treatment designed to improve herniated discs as well as degenerative discs (arthritis of the spine) in the neck and low back. It is also effective in treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
