Services
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets soft tissue restrictions using thin needles to relieve pain and improve mobility. This technique addresses muscle knots and trigger points through precise physical reactions that relax affected tissues. Combined with stretching and strengthening exercises, it enhances overall functional recovery for chronic pain or post-injury rehabilitation.
BFR Therapy
BFR therapy uses specialized tourniquets to partially restrict blood flow during low-load exercises. This evidence-based method builds muscle strength and endurance at 20-40% of maximum capacity instead of traditional 65% requirements. It's particularly effective for post-surgical rehabilitation while minimizing stress on healing tissues.
AlterG Treadmill
The AlterG treadmill reduces body weight load by 1% increments through pressurized chamber technology. This allows pain-free movement for patients recovering from lower extremity injuries or surgeries. It simultaneously builds strength, range of motion, and balance while protecting healing structures.
IASTM
IASTM employs specialized tools to mobilize skin, fascia, and muscles through controlled microtrauma. This technique stimulates collagen production and fibroblast activity while reducing pain and improving range of motion. It effectively treats chronic soft tissue restrictions and acute injuries.
ACL Rehabilitation
Our ACL rehab program combines manual therapy, progressive strengthening, and advanced equipment like the AlterG treadmill. Certified specialists develop individualized plans focusing on restoring stability, preventing re-injury, and safely returning patients to athletic activities through evidence-based protocols.
