Sports Therapy & Rehabilitation
We specialize in assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of sports-related injuries. Whether you’re a competitive athlete or a weekend warrior, our goal is to help you move better and perform your best. Common injuries we see: sprains and strains (ankle, wrist, knee) rotator cuff injury, golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, IT band syndrome, shin splints, low back and hip pain, and hip flexor strains.
Therapeutic exercises are often encouraged as part of the treatment plan to help strengthen surrounding muscles, improve range of motion, and reinforce long term stability. Therapeutic exercises help target certain weak or overstretched muscles to help take tension off the sore and tighter muscles. These are often used for neck tightness, low back stiffness, shoulder impingements, knee pain, and other musculoskeletal conditions.

Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression is a non-surgical motorized traction therapy that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. This can be effective for chronic neck or back pain or disc-related injuries, such as a disc bulge or disc herniation. Vertebral discs act as shock absorbers for the spine. Repetitive stress, age-related disc degeneration, heavy lifting, or sudden trauma can cause spinal injury. The disc may begin to bulge out unevenly like a jelly donut being flattened. When this occurs, the disc pushes on the nerve roots causing nerve impingement and symptoms of pain, numbness, or weakness.
Conditions that spinal decompression helps with include: herniated or bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatic or nerve root compression, facet syndrome, or chronic neck or back pain. Sessions are gentle, relaxing, and usually last about 10-15 minutes.

Chiropractic Adjustments
Our providers have over 20 years of combined experience and use a gentle hands-on technique to help facilitate joint movement and reduce pain. We use controlled force to joints that have become restricted including spinal joints as well as extremities like your shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle or foot. Common conditions we see: low back pain, neck pain and stiffness, headaches, sciatica, shoulder or hip pain, sports injuries, whiplash, motor vehicle accidents, and rib dysfunction. We primarily use a diversified (manual adjusting) technique but use activator or gentle soft tissue mobilization as well - it is always dependent on YOU the patient!

Myofascial Therapy (cupping, IASTM)
Our providers are skilled in offering myofascial release which helps increase blood flow, decrease muscle tension, and improve overall function in a muscle or joint. We use IASTM (instrument assisted soft-tissue mobilization), cupping therapy, and trigger point therapy. The use of high quality percussion therapy can also help increase circulation, decrease muscle soreness, and improve the muscle's range of motion. Percussion therapy is often used to help treat many musculoskeletal conditions including low back pain, hip pain, plantar fasciitis, muscle soreness, and several sports injuries.
