is a primary treatment method used in chiropractic settings to address misalignments, imbalances, and dysfunction within the spine and musculoskeletal system. It involves precise manual manipulation techniques applied to specific areas of the spine or joints.
The primary goal of corrective manipulative therapy is to restore proper alignment and function to the spine and musculoskeletal system. Chiropractors use their hands or specialized instruments to apply controlled force to the targeted areas, aiming to correct subluxations (partial dislocations) or joint restrictions.

Heat therapy is an effective way to relax tight muscles, increase circulation, and reduce inflammation. It is often used in conjunction with other chiropractic treatments to help prepare the body for adjustment and promote healing.
Stimulation, on the other hand, is a technique that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the muscles and nerves. This can help reduce pain, increase blood flow, and promote healing. There are several types of stimulation used in chiropractic practice, including transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and interferential current (IFC).
-
Microcurrent is a safe, non-invasive technique used in chiropractic practice to promote healing and pain relief. Microcurrent therapy has been shown to be effective in reducing pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms. It can also improve circulation and promote tissue regeneration, making it an excellent tool for promoting overall healing and recovery.
-
Ultrasound therapy is often used in conjunction with other chiropractic treatments, such as adjustments and manual therapy, to help relieve pain and promote healing. It is commonly used to treat conditions such as arthritis, muscle strains, and ligament injuries. During an ultrasound therapy session, a small wand-like device is used to deliver high-frequency sound waves to the affected area. These sound waves penetrate deep into the tissues, causing them to vibrate and creating a gentle warming effect. This can help to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair.
-
During a Graston Technique session, the practitioner uses the tools to apply pressure and friction to the affected area. This can help to break up scar tissue and adhesions, improve blood flow, and promote healing. The tools are designed to detect areas of restricted movement and to help release tension and tightness in the muscles.
Graston Technique is often used to treat conditions such as tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. It can also be effective in treating soft tissue injuries such as sprains and strains.
-
Kinesio tape is a technique commonly used in chiropractic settings to support injured muscles, joints, and ligaments. It is a flexible, stretchy tape that is applied to the skin in specific patterns to provide support, reduce pain, and enhance movement.
The unique properties of kinesio tape allow it to mimic the elasticity of human skin. When applied the tape lifts the skin slightly, creating space between the skin and underlying tissues. This helps to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
Kinesio tape can be used to address a variety of conditions, including muscle strains, ligament sprains, joint instability, and postural imbalances. It is often applied to areas where there is pain, swelling, or limited range of motion.
-
Traction therapy, also known as spinal traction, is a non-surgical technique used in chiropractic settings to relieve pain, reduce pressure on spinal discs, and improve spinal alignment. It involves the gentle stretching and decompression of the spine to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.
-
During trigger point therapy, our chiropractors apply pressure and manual manipulation to these specific trigger points. The goal is to release the tension and tightness in the affected muscle, alleviate pain, and restore normal muscle function.
