Total Health Chiropractic Center Chiropractic Techniques
We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use at Total Health Chiropractic Center is based on our judgment and years of experience.
The primary adjusting techniques we use include:
Diversified
After identifying which spinal bones have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is administered to free up “stuck” joints... read more»
Pulstar FRAS Repetitive Impulse Therapy
This state-of-the-art computerized spinal analysis and mobilization device measures the tissue compliance (stiffness) of each spinal joint and performs painless adjustments on specific vertebra. Before and after graphs show improvement over time.
Decompression
Our specially-equipped table will ever-so-slowly stretch your spine. And then relax it. Stretch. And relax. Excellent for disc cases. read more»
Extremities
While many health problems can be traced to the spine, wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees other joints of the body can be helped. read more»
Foot Levelers
Problems in your feet can create compensatory problems in back and neck. These custom orthotics can make a dramatic difference. read more»
Intersegmental Traction
We gently add motion to each vertebral joint to increase circulation, reduce scar tissue and enhance the effectiveness of your adjustments. read more»
Cold Light Laser
Cold light laser therapy uses light energy to directly stimulate the body's cells. The cells and tissues convert the light energy into biochemical energy. This reduces pain and inflammation/improved circulation and lymphatic drainage. It also decreases swelling, improves immune response and facilitates cell growth causing tissue repair and strengthening.
Heart Rate Variability Testing
Nerve-Express is a fully automatic, non-invasive computer-based system designed for quantitative assessment of the Autonomic Nervous System(ANS) based on Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis. In short, it tells you how healthy your system is at the time considering your age and health habits.
TheraStim
Therastim therapy relieves pain, increase range of motion, disperse fluid and edema (swelling),relieves spasm, increase nutrients to tissue, stimulates nerves, relax muscles, performs muscle re-education and neuro-reprogramming
Posture Analysis
The computerized posture analysis traces the curves of you spine, provides a visual comparison to a normal curvature, and indicates any deviation from normal. It is the latest method used to track postural improvements before and after treatment.
Balanced Stretching Analysis
This unique tool is specifically engineered to measure your body's muscular function compared to the ideal. It shows how well your body is able to stretch your lower back, upper back, hamstrings, shoulders, chest and more in an unassisted, controlled, safe manner without simultaneously contracting the opposite muscle.
Vestibular Analysis/Therapy
This computerized tool measures your balance and posture. It will show your risk level of falling and neurological stability. This tool also dynamically treats many postural, balance, and neurological problems.
Shortwave Diathermy
Diathermy increases circulation, reduces spasms, reduces trigger points, sedates the nervous system, reduces adhesions and scar tissue, increases antibodies and kills virus bacteria. For most conditions, diathermy is the best form of heating therapy available today.
Vibration Therapy
As part of a therapy program vibration therapy has been shown to reduce recovery time, increase circulation and range of motion, reduce pain, and increase the rate of muscular recruitment. It also can be used to re-educate neuromuscular function, increase metabolism, bone mineralization and decrease osteoporosis.
Kinesiostrapping
Provides stabilization of the muscles, supports muscle, removes congestion to the flow of body fluids,activates endogenous analgesic system, and corrects joint problems.
Myofascial Release
We'll find tender areas where muscles and connective tissue are producing pain and restricted movement and gently release it. read more»
Massage
Improves the circulation of oxygen-carrying blood and helps eliminate wastes from the body. It serves to either stimulates or relax the nervous system.
Pettibon
Your biggest enemy is gravity. We'll evaluate how your spine has adapted and take pictures throughout your care to document your progress. read more»
