Acupuncture
- Musculoskeletal injuries (aches, pains, sprains, strains, etc.): Acupuncture can be used for both chronic and acute injuries. Traditional Acupuncture can be used or another form called Motor Point Needling (very similar to dry needling) can achieve beneficial and lasting results. You should expect to see decreased inflammation, improvements in range of motion, muscle relaxation, and decreased pain/stiffness. Some of the common issues we deal with include:
- Women's health and fertility: Treatment for women’s health can begin at an early age to treat symptoms such as PMS, irregular cycles, and painful periods. In addition too early in life, acupuncture treatments can be used to help mature women transition through menopause. Rather than pills, procedures, or suffering though negative symptoms, Acupuncture provides a natural alternative form of medicine that allow for fundamental changes in your well being.
- Acupuncture is a holistic form of medicine and with that being said, it can address Stress and Mental Health issues. Every patient’s emotional, mental, and spiritual health are taken into consideration alongside any physical complaints they may have. The body’s stress response can have effects on multiple systems within our bodies such as: digestive, endocrine, immune, and nervous systems.

Dry Needling
- Dry Needling is a general term for a therapeutic treatment procedure that involves multiple advances of a filament needle into the muscle in the area of the body that is causing the pain and typically contains a ‘Trigger Point’
- Dry needling is an effective treatment for acute and chronic pain, rehabilitation from injury, and even pain and injury prevention, with very few side effects. This technique is unequaled in finding and eliminating neuromuscular dysfunction that leads to pain and functional deficits(Adapted from Kinetacore’s Physical Therapy Education Website)
Hydrotherapy
- Aquatic therapy, commonly known as hydrotherapy, is the use of exercise therapy within a pool to target and treat a wide spectrum of conditions. It is designed to help patients regain range of motion, balance, strength and endurance in a more “weight free” environment, putting less pressure on the body.
Traction
- Traction is a form of decompression therapy that relieves pressure on the spine. It can be performed with our traction bed mechanically. Spinal traction is used to treat conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, pinched nerves, and many other back conditions.
Fascial Stretching
- Fascia is the connective tissue system of the body that penetrates through and wraps around muscles, nerves, organs, and just about everything else in your body. It is good for improved quality of life, reducing pain from lack of mobilty & flexibility, and help with faster recovery from fitness & athletic activities. Fascial stretching can reduce pain & stress, improve sleep, mobility, appearance (better posture) and weight managment with better mobility to exercise.
