Movement is Medicine.
Our bodies are designed and programmed to move. Our bodies feel their best when they are active and moving, rather living a sedentary lifestyle. Movement is the most important signal to the brain, it values it more than pain. So you can actually feel less pain, by learning how to move well and often.
One life, one body - treat it right!
Treatment Options
Chiropractic Manipulation
What is a chiropractic manipulation? Manipulation is a tool I use in order to put motion into a joint. The joint is either not moving well or not moving at all.
When joints are not able to move well they tend to coincide with more pain. This is because when our joints move, they send a signal to the brain which overrides all other signals, even pain.
When motion is taken away, the overriding signal can become pain. So the saying, "Movement is medicine" takes on a completely different meaning, because quite literally the more you move the healthier of life you will lead!
**I am totally aware that manipulation is not for everyone. This is not something I force, only a tool I use if we both are comfortable with it.
Soft Tissue
What is soft tissue? This category includes muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia. These tissues work together in order to move your body around, maintain upright posture, perform functional movements, help circulate blood, etc.
Since we use our soft tissues constantly throughout the day, you can begin to see how it is easy for certain areas to become overworked & overstressed due to high repetition.
Sometimes these consistent stresses overwhelm the tissues, which leaves you stuck with tension and/or pain. When this happens muscles can become adhered to the surrounding fascia causing even further motion restriction.
With soft tissue complaints I like to focus on detecting the exact area contributing to the patient’s complaints and removing the problem. Soft tissue treatment can include pin & stretch, trigger point therapy, muscle scrapping, cupping and/or therapeutic stretching.
Trigger Point Release
This is where I locate and work on those knots & painful regions within the muscles that are causing symptoms. Once located, I work out the area with deep pressure and movement until the muscle-fascial connection is released. Bringing new blood and healing to the area.
Therapeutic Stretching
Therapeutic stretching is different from your regular stretching in that with this kind of stretching we are targeting certain issues. The doctor will stretch out particular joints and fascial planes, in order to get you a deeper & more satisfying relief.
Cupping
Cupping is a form of deep tissue work, that works to break up adhesions and increase the circulation to a desired area. This is different from other techniques as it is a vacuum, rather than deep pressure. Most the benefits come from the increased circulation, therefore healing.
Graston
Graston is an innovative, evidence-based form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that allow clinicians effectively break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions.
Strength Training or Rehab Program
I create an individualized plan that targets your weaknesses to help improve acute/chronic issues while still increasing your overall strength. Programs are 4-6 weeks long. Get 1:1 instruction for 60 min. on how to perform lifts on your own. Reach your goals quicker and safer.
