THERAPY

Muscle Stim

Relax Spastic Muscles
Reeducate Muscles
Pain Relief by Increasing Endorphins

(natural pain & stress relieving hormone)

Stimulate Circulation
Edema (swelling) Reduction
Clear Wastes from Tissues
Prevent Disuse Atrophy (muscle weakness)

Electrotherapy is the use of electrical currents to produce therapeutic effects on the body.

Ultrasound

Edema (swelling) Reduction
Pain Relief by Increasing Enkephalins

(natural pain & stress relieving hormone)

Increase Oxidation
Increase Gaseous Exchange
Increase Permeability of Cell

Ultrasound uses sound waves to penetrate into the tissue.

IASTM

Breaks up Excessive Scar Tissue
Relaxes Tight Muscles
Indicated for Sprain/Strains & Tendonitis

Instrument-Assisted Soft-Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) uses specialized tools to effectively break down fascial restrictions, relax muscles, and move fluids in tissues.

Taping

Rigid (athletic) Tape:

Restrict or Prevent Motion
Prevent further injury or re-injury

Kinesiology Tape:

Sensory Modulation to Alter Pain
Improves Stability
Improved ROM (Range of Motion)

Biomechanical Tape:

Provides Mechanical Assistance Externally
Deload Structures
Assist Weak Muscles
Improve Movement Patterns

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle hands-on technique that uses light touch to release soft tissue tightness and tension in the fascia surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

Usually encouraged in the first year of life to help guide the cranial (skull) bones in the proper direction after birth.

May be beneficial for headaches and previous head injuries.
