Foot Orthotics
Your feet are the foundation of your body. They support you when you stand, walk, or run. And they help protect your spine, bones, and soft tissues from damaging stress as you move around. Your feet perform better when all their muscles, arches, and bones are in their ideal stable positions.
The foot is constructed with three arches which, when properly maintained, give exceptional supportive strength. These three arches form a supporting vault that distributes the weight of the entire body.
If there is compromise of one arch in the foot, the other arches must compensate and are subject to additional stresses, which usually leads to further compromise. It’s a chain reaction.
Most patients find interferential therapy to be very beneficial and describe the treatment as being relaxing and having a 'pins and needles' sensation.
Heat/Ice
Hot and Cold therapy is a great way to break muscle spasms, decrease pain, and decrease inflammation
Interferential Current Therapy
Interferential current therapy is a treatment to aid in the relief of pain and the promotion of soft-tissue healing.
Tiny, extremely comfortable electrical impulses are induced into the tissues in the area of the pain. Where these waves intersect below the surface of the skin, the low-frequency stimulation induces the body to secrete endorphins, which are the body's natural pain-killers.
Ligament sprains, muscle strains and spasms often respond well to interferential current therapy
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is a form of manual bodywork which includes, but is not limited to structural assesments and manual massage techniques for stretching the fascia and soft tissues releasing bonds between fascia, muscles, and bones. It's goals are to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and balance the body. The fascia is manually manipulated and massaged directly or indirectly, allowing the connective tissue fibers to reorganize themselves in a more flexible, functional fashion. 
Rehab
Rehabilitation is the process of helping an individual achieve the highest level of function, independence, and quality of life possible. Rehabilitation in our office helps restore the individual to optimal health, functioning, and well-being using stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises. Often times rehab can be performed at home, not only to help an existing condition, but to prevent future ones from ocurring.
Rehabilitate (from the Latin "habilitas") means to make able.
Chiropractic Adjustment
The adjustment is a gentle force applied to different areas of the spine by the hand of the practitioner to nudge specific vertebra back to their normal position and motion. The adjustment is gentle, safe, and very relieving for most people.
