Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care focuses on musculoskeletal and nervous system disorders through manual adjustments. This drug-free approach treats back pain, neck pain, and headaches by restoring joint mobility and nervous system function. Our practice combines traditional techniques with modern diagnostics to create personalized treatment plans that address both symptoms and underlying causes.
Active Release Technique
ART is a patented soft tissue system for treating muscle, tendon, and nerve injuries. This hands-on method breaks down scar tissue and adhesions causing pain and restricted movement. Effective for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and plantar fasciitis, ART provides rapid relief through targeted manipulation of affected tissues during 10-15 minute sessions.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical spinal decompression gently stretches the spine to relieve disc pressure and nerve compression. Using the Triton DTS table, this therapy treats herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis by creating space for nutrients to reach damaged discs. Certified Kennedy specialists administer 12-24 sessions over 4-6 weeks for lasting pain relief.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy uses light energy to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive treatment accelerates healing for tendonitis, muscle strains, and joint pain by penetrating deep tissues with focused light waves. Sessions last 30 seconds to several minutes per treatment area, with minimal side effects reported.
Radial Pressure Wave
Radial pressure wave therapy delivers acoustic waves to stimulate blood flow and tissue repair. This treatment addresses chronic tendon injuries, muscle trigger points, and joint pain through 5-8 minute sessions that break down scar tissue and promote healing. Effective for conditions like tennis elbow and plantar fasciitis, requiring 5-6 weekly treatments.
