The Chiropractic treatments
Our chiropractors are trained in the use a variety of techniques and methods to give you the best chance of recovery and improvement. Every individual is different, as is every visit. Depending on the spinal corrections to be made and the areas that need to be treated, the treatment can be adjusted.
The different techniques we use allow us to treat everyone from newborn babies to the elderly in a safe and effective manner.
Diversified techniek
Diversified technique is the most common form of chiropractic treatment. This form of adjustment is a manual treatment and can cause cracking noises, which is simply a release of air trapped inside the joint space.
Arthrostim
The Arthrostim is an electric chiropractic instrument. With gentle movements, it is very effective at releasing trigger points or helping joints move correctly.
Cox technic -
Flexion distraction
A gentle but highly efficient technique which helps to open up the space in between the vertebral joints. Effective for hernia, arthrose, stenose and other conditions.
Dry needling
A form of treatment performed with small needles. Different than acupuncture, dry needling helps in releasing the tension in knots, trigger points in the muscles and fascia.
Thompson technique
The Thompson technique is another gentler form of chiropractic care. Using "drops" on the table, the chiropractor can help gently move the joints back into proper alignment.
Vibrocussor
An instrument that emits deep, controllable percussions to loosen fascia and soft tissues.
Activator technique
The activator is a small mechanical instrument used to gently restore movement to your spine. It is very light and can be used on anyone, including babies and the elderly.
IASTM Fascia release
IASTM or Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization uses an instrument to massage the muscles to release myofascial trigger points.
Active release technique (ART)
In some cases, the chiropractor will also perform deep release of the fascia or surrounding soft tissues to further correct muscle imbalances.
Kinesio taping
Kinesio Taping can be used to gently support the muscular system by relaxing or activating certain muscles. It can also help maintain proper posture after chiropractic treatment.
