Dry Needling

Integrative dry needling is a highly researched therapy technique that supports accelerated health and a return to an active lifestyle. It is referred to as “dry” needling because there is no solution injected. When other therapy techniques haven’t worked, let our team get you back to the life you love with dry needling!

IASTM

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) therapy is a highly effective physical therapy technique that can help you feel better, faster and accelerate the healing process. This unique type of therapy uses your own body's healing mechanisms to stimulate the regeneration of healthy tissue. The result is pain relief and improved function. Whether you're dealing with an old sports injury or chronic pain, IASTM therapy can help you get back to feeling your best.

Cupping

Cupping therapy is an ancient Chinese practice that has been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments. The therapist will place special cups on your skin, which create suction. This suction will help to loosen tight muscles, break up scar tissue, and increase blood flow. Cupping therapy can be used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall circulation.

Manual Therapy

Manual therapy is a type of physical therapy that involves manipulating the soft tissues of the body to promote healing. Common techniques include massage, trigger point release, and myofascial release. Manual therapy can be used to treat a variety of conditions, such as chronic pain, headaches, and tension. While it is most often used in conjunction with other forms of treatment, manual therapy can be an effective standalone treatment for those who are looking for an alternative to medication or surgery.

Mobilization and manipulation are two important techniques used by physical therapists to help patients during manual therapy. Manipulation involves using the hands to move a joint beyond its normal range of motion, while mobilization involves using gentle traction to stretch the tissues around a joint. Both techniques can help reduce pain and inflammation and improve range of motion. In addition, mobilization and manipulation can be used to correct alignment problems and to release trapped nerves. As a result, these techniques can be an important part of physical therapy for many different types of injuries.
