Soft tissue treatment such as trigger point work and myofascial release to improve the health and functioning of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Many times chronic strains or sprains are due to the faulty healing from a previous injury. Skilled soft tissue work can decrease the probability of this happening again, along with the rehabilitative exercises. 2

 

Traditional chiropractic techniques and expertise that provide alignment and joint mobility to the body’s structure. This may be gentle low force or deeper manual work depending on your needs and preference. Your nervous system is affected by the adjustments that speed your healing.
