Services
Back Pain Treatment
Our back pain treatment program combines spinal adjustments with rehabilitative therapies to address disc issues, muscle strains, and nerve compression. Using CBP technique, we restore natural spinal curvature while incorporating flexion-distraction therapy for disc decompression. Patients receive personalized exercise programs to strengthen core muscles and improve posture, with progress tracked through periodic digital imaging assessments.
Pregnancy Chiropractic Care
Specialized Webster technique adjustments help maintain pelvic balance during pregnancy, potentially reducing labor complications. Our gentle approach addresses sciatic nerve pain and lower back strain caused by postural changes. Treatment includes ergonomic counseling for sleep positioning and activity modification, with care adapted to each trimester's specific needs through regular reassessments.
Sciatica Therapy
Targeted adjustments and decompression therapy alleviate pressure on the sciatic nerve. We combine spinal manipulation with nerve mobilization exercises and postural retraining to prevent recurrence. Treatment plans incorporate ergonomic modifications for workstations and activity-specific biomechanical analysis to identify contributing factors to nerve irritation.
Neck Pain Relief
Our cervical spine treatment integrates gentle mobilization techniques with muscle release therapy for neck pain caused by whiplash or poor posture. Patients receive posture correction training and ergonomic workstation assessments to prevent recurrence. Advanced therapies include cervical traction and cold laser treatment to reduce inflammation and promote tissue healing.
Rehabilitation Programs
Customized rehabilitation programs combine therapeutic exercises with neuromuscular re-education to restore function after injury. We utilize intersegmental traction for joint mobility improvement alongside electrical muscle stimulation for pain management. Treatment includes progressive strengthening protocols and functional movement assessments to ensure complete recovery and prevent future injuries.
