DIAGNOSTIC

are conducted at our facility and in public settings as a service

REHABILITATION EXERCISE
Based upon a thorough
examination, a customized strength and conditioning program will
be designed to speed healing to injured or painful areas. We focus
on contraction/relaxation stretching to lengthen shortened and injured
muscles and on strengthening exercises to stabilize effected areas
and add to joint stabilization. Stabilizing and strengthening these
deep muscles that support the spine has been shown to be a major
factor in the treatment of chronic low back pain. Balance and core
stability exercises enhance balance and prevent falls, which are
both very important especially for our osteoporotic and/or
geriatric patients |
NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING
– Whether it is to
help with a specific condition or to help achieve general well-being,
we help guide patients in their nutritional choices, as well as
give specific recommendations on vitamin, mineral and herbal supplementation
to help get them back to feeling well and living better.

THERAPEUTIC
MODALITIES – State of the art electrotherapies and
ultrasound using current FDA approved protocols are utilized. Electrotherapies
and ultrasound are used for long lasting therapeutic benefit, to
relax muscle spasms, to increase circulation to an injured area,
to reduce swelling in a muscle or a joint and even to strengthen
weakened muscles. |
