Rehabilitation with Chiropractic and Therapy
Your first appointment will be no different from the usual consultation and evaluation. You will be asked specific questions related to your particular sport or even to demonstrate some movements.

Treatment may include, but is not limited to, Stretching, Weight or Band Strengthening, Resistance Training, Core Exercises, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF Stretching), Extremity Adjusting/Manipulation, Modalities and other Manual Therapies as needed. Our goals are to promote anatomical rest, diminish muscle spasm, to reduce inflammation, to restore motion and to alleviate pain.

These may include, but are not limited to, your family primary care provider/medical doctor, medical specialists including orthopedic and neurology physicians, physical therapists, nutritionists, Chinese Medical Doctors and Acupuncturists/Acupuncture, personal trainers, and even yoga gurus or specialists!
