Services

We offer a variety of therapies to address your specific needs. Our services include Motion Palpation/Diversified, Active Release Technique, Rehabilitative/Corrective Exercises, McKenzie Therapy, Thompson Technique, and Activator Methods. Each of these therapies is designed to address different aspects of your health, from pain relief to functional rehabilitation.

Motion Palpation/Diversified

Our Motion Palpation/Diversified treatment involves using an adjusting style commonly referred to as diversified. This approach involves palpation of the spine to find any restricted joints, followed by a manual thrust to restore proper range of motion and function.

Active Release Technique

Active Release Technique (ART) is used to address over-used muscles and soft tissue issues. This involves applying pressure to the affected area and helping the muscle go through its full range of motion to break up scar tissue and restore function and blood flow.

Rehabilitative/Corrective Exercises

Our Rehabilitative/Corrective Exercises focus on simulating activities you do often and are designed to increase overall flexibility, core strength, balance, and strength and power. These exercises are tailored to meet each patient's needs and goals.

McKenzie Therapy

McKenzie Therapy involves personalized Nutrition Consultations to provide patients with the resources they need to get their health on track.

Thompson Technique

The Thompson Technique uses individual cushions or "drop pieces" to support each area of your spine until the thrust is delivered, reducing the amount of energy needed to move a specific spinal segment.

Activator

We also utilize an activator, a handheld spring-loaded tool, for adjustments. This approach is especially helpful for patients who prefer it or who have trouble tightening up during other types of treatments.
