Services
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Vestibular Rehabilitation at Synergy Healthcare treats dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders through customized exercise programs. Our specialists use gentle techniques to retrain the brain and improve stability. Patients with Meniere's disease, concussion-related dizziness, and chronic imbalance achieve significant symptom reduction through one-on-one sessions focusing on habituation, adaptation, and substitution strategies.
Frequency Specific Microcurrent
Frequency Specific Microcurrent therapy delivers targeted electrical currents to accelerate tissue healing and reduce pain. This non-invasive treatment increases ATP production, enhancing recovery from acute injuries and chronic conditions like fibromyalgia and neuropathy. Patients experience deep relaxation during sessions that often provide lasting relief after just a few treatments for issues ranging from sports injuries to organ-related pain.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy addresses central nervous system dysfunction through light touch techniques that release tension in brain and spinal cord tissues. Our practitioners use this method to treat migraines, TMJ disorders, and trauma recovery by improving cerebrospinal fluid flow. This gentle approach benefits patients with chronic pain, concussion symptoms, and stress-related conditions through calming nervous system responses.
Myokinesthetics
Myokinesthetics combines posture analysis with neuromuscular retraining to correct chronic pain patterns. Our therapists identify structural imbalances causing joint and muscle dysfunction, then implement targeted interventions to restore proper alignment. This approach effectively treats repetitive strain injuries, sports-related pain, and postural distortions through hands-on adjustments and corrective exercises.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Our post-surgical rehabilitation programs guide patients through every stage of recovery after procedures like joint replacements and rotator cuff repairs. Using progressive strengthening protocols and manual therapy techniques, we restore mobility and function while minimizing scar tissue formation. Patients receive individualized care plans that accelerate healing and prevent compensatory movement patterns during recovery.
