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.
