Services
Subluxation Correction
Correcting spinal misalignments through precise manual adjustments to relieve nerve pressure and restore proper function. This technique addresses pain originating from vertebral displacement, improving mobility and reducing inflammation. Patients experience enhanced nervous system communication and accelerated healing through targeted spinal corrections.
Flexion-Distraction Therapy
Gentle, non-surgical therapy using a specialized table to stretch the spine and relieve disc pressure. This method effectively treats lower back pain, sciatica, and disc herniations by creating negative disc pressure to rehydrate spinal discs and promote healing in affected areas.
EMG/NCV Testing
Diagnostic evaluation of nerve function using electromyography and nerve conduction velocity tests to identify neurological impairments. This technology pinpoints nerve compression or damage, guiding precise treatment plans for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, and radiculopathy with 98% diagnostic accuracy.
Therapeutic Exercise
Customized exercise programs to strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and restore functional movement patterns. These evidence-based protocols target specific weaknesses and imbalances, preventing re-injury while enhancing overall physical performance through progressive resistance training and neuromuscular re-education techniques.
Moist-Heat Therapy
Deep-penetrating heat application to relax tight muscles, increase blood circulation, and reduce joint stiffness. This modality prepares soft tissues for manual therapy, alleviates chronic pain, and accelerates healing by delivering oxygen-rich blood to injured areas through controlled thermal stimulation.
