Services
Spinal Adjustments
Manual spinal adjustments restore joint mobility and alleviate pain caused by tissue injury or misalignment. This service targets restricted spinal motion using controlled thrusts to improve function and reduce nerve irritation. Ideal for chronic back pain, sciatica, and posture-related discomfort, adjustments are tailored to individual needs with options for manual or instrument-assisted techniques.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics provide biomechanical correction for foot imbalances affecting posture and gait. Using advanced TOG GaitScan technology and 3D casting, we create personalized insoles to address arch issues, leg length discrepancies, and sports-related foot pain. This service integrates with spinal care to resolve pain patterns extending to knees, hips, and lower back.
PulStar Therapy
PulStar computerized therapy offers gentle spinal mobilization for patients preferring non-manual treatment. This FDA-approved technology uses precise impulses to release joint restrictions without twisting or popping sounds. It's particularly effective for osteoporosis patients, post-surgical care, and those seeking preventive spinal maintenance.
Gait Analysis
Comprehensive gait analysis identifies biomechanical irregularities affecting spinal health. Using computerized pressure mapping and motion tracking, we assess walking patterns to diagnose foot-related pain sources. Findings inform customized treatment plans combining orthotics, spinal adjustments, and corrective exercises for improved mobility.
Rehabilitation Exercises
Personalized rehabilitation programs strengthen muscles and improve flexibility to support spinal health. Patients receive guided instruction on posture correction, stretching techniques, and targeted exercises to prevent recurrence of pain. These evidence-based routines complement manual therapies for lasting musculoskeletal improvement.
