Corrective Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.

Erchonia™ Cold Laser Therapy

For those suffering from chronic or acute pain, Erchonia™ cold laser therapy offers a painless, drug-free way to manage or even eliminate pain primarily by raising the immune responses in our blood and reducing inflammation. Erchonia™ cold laser therapy has proven effective in the treatment of many pain syndromes caused by musculoskeletal conditions including fractures and soft tissue injuries, wound healing, neurological conditions including carpal tunnel, and various dermatological disorders.

Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

   Surface EMG

 

A surface EMG is a machine which measures small amounts of electricity and heat from the surface of the body. A computer interprets the information gathered by the EMG and gives a reading of the information. The EMG measures the muscles on the sides of your spine to determine if one side is more active than another. One side may be overactive or one side may not be active enough. This is a safe and easy way to gather information regarding your problem. The surface EMG shows the location of muscle spasms and the severity of muscle spasms.
