Services
Chiropractic Joint Manipulation
Our chiropractic physicians use motion palpation to identify joint restrictions caused by trauma or repetitive stress. Targeted manipulations restore proper motion, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain while preventing cartilage degeneration. Combined with strengthening exercises, this treatment stabilizes joints and prevents chronic issues from recurring.
Pelvic Power Release
This patented intravaginal technique diagnoses and treats pelvic floor dysfunction by releasing muscle spasms and adhesions. It addresses urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and postnatal recovery through manual biofeedback that strengthens weakened muscles and improves coordination between pelvic structures.
Active Release Techniques
ART resolves scar tissue and adhesions in muscles, tendons, and nerves caused by repetitive strain injuries. Over 500 specific protocols target conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and plantar fasciitis, restoring circulation and flexibility while accelerating healing through guided patient movements.
Graston Technique
Stainless steel instruments detect and break down fascial restrictions and scar tissue. This evidence-based approach treats chronic inflammation and soft tissue fibrosis while complementing rehabilitation programs to improve range of motion and functional mobility.
Functional Rehabilitation
Licensed athletic trainers design progressive programs across four care phases: acute relief, corrective stretching, strengthening, and wellness maintenance. Postnatal patients receive individualized plans to rebuild core stability and safely manage physical demands of motherhood through targeted strength and conditioning.
