Therapy Modalities

We may apply electrotherapy modalities that produce light electrical pulses transmitted through electrodes placed over your specific sites of concern. These comfortable modalities work to decrease your pain, limit inflammation and ease muscle spasm. Electrical stimulation may also be applied using a Compex unit or other Stimulation device  to improve strength. Muscle atrophy and Arthrogenic Muscle Inhibition often occur after chronic injuries with loss of activity levels or surgeries resulting in some muscle fibers difficult to improve by exercise alone.

MyoVision Scanning

We utilize three products by MyoVision to benefit our patients. The ScanVision sEMG accurately measures your muscle tension so you can see what you're feeling.  The DynaROM Motion EMG measures the impact of soft tissue injury by documenting pain in motion.  FlexVisions gives us accuract range of motion data to accurately diagnose and treat the patient. 

Joint Manipulation

Joint manipulation can be used when joints in your body are not moving freely. This can cause tightness and discomfort and can accelerate unwanted degeneration i.e. arthritis. Joint manipulation improves flexibility, relieves pain, and helps maintain healthy joints.

Ultrasound Therapy

​Ultrasound is thought to improve blood flow, speed healing, and reduce pain & swelling. Ultrasound therapy uses a small circular applicator to deliver high-frequency sound waves into your body. Before treatment, a gel is applied to your skin to help transmit these waves to the injured tissues below. You will not hear or feel ultrasound waves - only the gentle massage of the applicator rubbing your skin. 

Athletic & Sport Development

Over the years we have worked with many athletes to provide strength training and athletic development. Some of those athletes have become elite at their sport and played at the next level with our programs and care. Dr. Day has been a certified strength and conditioning specialist and a member of the Gambetta Athletic Improvement Network, home of the worlds top athletic performance specialists. To be the best, you must train like the best. Dr. Day motivates patients to train outside their comfort zone and become stronger, faster, and well adjusted. We have a strength room on site that allows us to guides all patients on their pursuit of a healthier, stronger lifestyle.

Therapeutic Exercises

Muscle tightness or weakness causes discomfort and alters normal joint function, leading to additional problems. Your chiropractor will target tight or weak muscles with specific therapeutic stretching and strengthening to help increase tissue flexibility, build strength, and ease the pain. Healthy, strong, and flexible muscles may help prevent re-injury.

"​The results suggest that exercise therapy, when included as part of a treatment program, has a beneficial effect for patients who have symptomatic shoulders and radiological or arthroscopic evidence of full thickness rotator cuff tears."

Expert Advice

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Release (IASTM)

IASTM is another option to resolve pain and tightness in the body. This approach to fascial work reduces friction which allows for precision, sensitivity and depth. Using a tool focuses the force through an area smaller than your finger with less friction which allows a more efficient treatment. The goal is to trigger an inflammatory healing response. This will stimulate the production of new collagen and proper, functional, pain-free healing.
