CHIROFAMILY
Therapies
ChiroFamily believes in getting you better faster. In addition to our adjustments we offer supplemental services that can help your body not only heal quicker, but in a more natural way to reduce inflammation and prevent further injury. Below is a list of extra therapies that can be done here at ChiroFamily. These therapies can be used when an injury is present or for general use to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, improve range of motion and much more. All ages and various conditions (pregnancy, amputation, low back pain) can benefit from added care in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments. We do our best to match a therapy to the problem at hand with a goal of supporting the adjustment.
Muscle Scraping
This therapy uses various stainless-steel instruments to push along the skin to promote blood flow thus enhance nutrient uptake and better healing. Scraping can be done on anyone that has muscle adhesions or scar tissue buildup. Scrapping is thought to lower inflammation, provide pain relief and even increase range of motion.
Kinesio-Taping
is a therapeutic taping technique that microscopically lifts the skin to promote lymphatic drainage. This allows the area to reduce pain and inflammation, optimize performance, prevent injury and promote good circulation and can assist the body’s natural healing process. It can be used as injury prevention method or in a rehabilitation/chronic injury phase. At ChiroFamily we use Rock Tape. It can be applied in hundreds of ways. Taping can be beneficial for many athletes and can even be used to support a pregnant mamas belly or even for low back pain.
Cupping
This is a practice where special cups are put on the skin to create a suction. This suction is an effective way to release toxins from the body. The tissue beneath the cup is drawn up and starts to swell causing increased blood flow and in turn drawing toxins to the surface away from nearby tissues towards the surface for elimination. Cupping can be used on healthy patients or those suffering from aliments.
McKenzie Method
After proper assessment targeted exercises and procedures, including repetitive movements and sustain posture will be given to the patient in order to self-manage their pain. Instructions will be clear and simple, but patient follow-through is essential. The patient is actively involved in their own care. This can minimize the number of visits to the clinic. This therapy is most commonly used for back and neck pain, but can also be applied to shoulders, hips, and knees.
Hypervolt
This is a therapy that uses targeted pulses of pressure into the muscle/tissues of the body. Percussive stimulation relieves muscle pain, stiffness, and soreness, and increases range of motion. Other benefits of Hypervolt therapy include muscle relaxation, toxin elimination (activates lymphatic drainage), increased circulation, and improved flexibility.
