Acupuncture
Acupuncture facilitates tissue healing, obtains myofascial release for tight muscles, reduces inflammation in injured areas, and naturally controls pain. When medically necessary, our doctors include additional modalities such as cupping and infrared heat to optimize healing results.
Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a non-invasive and holistic approach to healthcare that aims to correct musculoskeletal disorders and improve overall health and wellness. Our clinic offers a range of chiropractic treatments that can help alleviate pain, restore function, and enhance your quality of life. Ask you doctor about chiropractic care.
Far Infrared Heat
Far Infrared heat is used to open up capillaries to promote local blood circulation (blood has platelets and plateles have growth factors – part of the repair process), relax tight muscles, and to help facilitate pain relief.
Cupping
Cupping reduces pain and tension, provides myofascial release, and can help lower inflammation. The patient feels pressure. We constantly check with the patient on their comfort level during a cupping session.
Gua Sha, aka Rolfing, Coining, or Grastan technique
Soft tissue manipulation technique to obtain myofascial release, break up scar tissue, promote local blood flow, and alleviate tense muscles.
