Graston
An Advanced Method to Decrease Pain and Improve Function This technique is a simple way to alleviate pain without surgery ormedication. Graston Technique allows us to detect and treat areas of scar tissue and restrictions. Why is scar tissue a problem? Scar tissue limits range of motion, and in many instances causes pain, which prevents the patient from functioning as he or she did before the injury.
With the use of six specially designed stainless steel instruments, we can locate and treat tightness, sore tissues, and inflammation.
Graston Technique has been effective in treatment of:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Cervical pain
- De Quervain's syndrome
- Epicondylosis
- Fibromyalgia
- IT band syndrome
- Joint sprain
- Lower back pain
- Muscle strain
- Painful scars
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tendinosis
- Post-fracture pain
- Women's health (post-mastectomy and Caesarean scarring)
Graston Technique offers many benefits:
- GT decreases overall time of treatment
- Fosters faster rehabilitation/recovery
- Reduces need for anti-inflammatory medication -Resolves chronic conditions thought to be permanent
"New" Decompression Therapy
A non-surgical procedure that treats disabling low back, neck, radiating leg, arm pain, and headaches.
Kennedy Spinal Decompression Therapy
The Kennedy Spinal Decompression Therapy has been a proven clinically effective form of alleviating pain associated with herniated or bulging discs, as well as sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and many failed back surgery cases.
This traction-based procedure is one of the leading long-term treatment options for treating low back, and cervical neck problems.
Often, the pain in your back or neck is due to a bulging or herniated condition of one or more of the discs that act as a shock absorber, or cushion between the vertebrae that make up your spinal column. When your disc(s) bulge, are herniated, or simply wear out, the disc can press or pinch against a sensitive nerve, the result of which can be VERY painful.
Over time, your body suffers from the wear and tear of daily living; the Kennedy Spinal Decompression Therapy can help to create a negative pressure in your disc “decompression”. Decompression is the result of proper positioning, and tractioning of your spinal column.
Doctor skill level of manipulating the computerized traction module on the decompression table is key to the therapy’s effectiveness.
