About Chiropractic Care Techniques at Evexia Family Chiropractic
At Evexia Family Chiropractic, we use many different Chiropractic Care Techniques. The type of techniques we use in treating patients is based on the individuals health care needs. Below are some of the techniques we use at our office.
Manual Chiropractic Adjustments
Manual Chiropractic Adjustments are an important part of your therapy. Manual adjustments are performed on joints that have lost normal motion which may lead to inflammation, muscle spasms, and pain. Your chiropractor will use their hands to produce a controlled and specific impulse designed to initiate movement and correct joint position.
Instrument Assisted Adjustments
Instrument Assisted Adjustments can also be administered mechanically with the use of a specially designed chiropractic adjustment tool. Mechanical adjustments are sometimes preferred to manual adjustment techniques depending on patient preference and their current health conditions. Utilizing multiple adjustment techniques allows our qualified doctors to treat a wide range of patients from children to the elderly.
Therapeutic Exercises
Therapeutic Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. However, many painful conditions such as low back pain or neck pain require the use of specific exercises. This is to target weak and imbalanced muscles that may be contributing to your condition. Our chiropractic physicians are qualified to create treatment plans that incorporate exercise programs specifically for you. Our plans are based on detailed evaluations known as functional muscle testing. We can target specific weaknesses and create a stable platform for you to begin the road to long term recovery and health.
Soft Tissue Techniques
Soft tissue techniques are utilized in our chiropractic clinic as an adjunctive therapy. These techniques help relieve muscle spasms or tension and to help correct imbalanced muscle lengths. Imbalanced muscle lengths often occur from poor posture or injuries. Techniques such as IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization), Post Isometric Stretching, and trigger point therapies can help reduce pain and increase overall mobility. These techniques are often used in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercises. The combination of procedures helps to speed recovery and improve patient outcomes.
Therapeutic Ultrasound and Electric Muscle Stimulation
Therapeutic Ultrasound (US) and Electric Muscle Stimulation (EMS) can be effective tools at reducing muscle spasms, pain, and inflammation of acute injuries. They may also speed up recovery times for certain conditions by increasing blood flow to the targeted area, which allows for improved healing. Chiropractic physicians utilize these therapies as compliments to other forms of treatment based on your individual needs.
FAKTR/SPRT Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping is often associated with elite athletes and performance. But, there are many conditions that respond favorably to the therapeutic application of kinesiology taping. These conditions include neck pain, back pain, and shoulder pain. Kinesiology taping utilizes the application of specifically designed flexible tape to targeted areas of the body. It helps to increase nerve stimulation, stability and function of injured or weak muscles and joints. Chiropractic physicians at Evexia Family Chiropractic are also certified in Specific Proprioceptive Response Taping (SPRT) techniques. SPRT can offer greater benefits and stability for conditions such as shoulder pain and low back pain than other taping techniques.
