Our Focus
Our skills are in manual and exercise therapy. This means that we
can use a myriad of different techniques applied to your muscles,
ligaments and joints to improve the way movement occurs.
For example, we can apply gentle forces to spinal joints
to improve minor position faults and allow better freedom of
movement. The use of tape, bracing and exercise complement these
manual therapy strategies to help reinforce and maintain freer
movement patterns.
Assessments
To successfully treat we must first effectively evaluate. During
your assessment, we will engage you to understand and explore why
you have your injury.
You will learn about how your body
works biomechanically and how to better control your movement. Most
importantly, by being actively involved in the evaluation and
treatment process you will learn how best to prevent future
injuries.
You will have the power to maintain an ease of
movement in life. You will reduce your dependency on medical
intervention and gain lifelong pain management and preventative
skills.
Treatment
You will find that when you receive treatment at our practice you
will be expected to actively move with our guidance through patterns
and directions of movement that ultimately allows improved
function.
No treatment that we provide is passive. We do
not use electrotherapeutic machines because we believe other active
and self-applied treatment options are just as effective, more
economical, more eco-friendly and more empowering for you.
