Joint Manipulation & Mobilization
Chiropractic joint manipulation is a manual therapy that involves applying a gentle force through a joint in order to restore full range of motion and ideal function. It has been shown to be effective in the treatment of headaches and neck and low back pain, among other conditions.

Active Release Technique (ART)
Active Release Technique (ART) is a patented, state-of-the-art soft tissue system that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and effectively with ART. At the most basic level, ART works by breaking up scar tissue, muscle adhesions and restrictions, muscular spasm and tightness. The mechanism by which it does this is for the examiner to put a muscle in its most shortened position (through movement of the nearby joints), then apply a tension with his/her thumb or fingers, and while maintaining that tension he/she will lengthen the muscle throughout its range of motion. In this way, any adhesions or scar tissue is broken up along the entire length of the muscle.
Graston Technique
Graston Technique ® (GT) is a unique, evidence-based form of instrument- assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to effectively and efficiently address soft tissue lesions and fascial restrictions. GT uses specially designed stainless steel instruments with unique treatment edges and angles to deliver an effective means of manual therapy and diagnosis. The use of GT instruments, when combined with appropriate therapeutic exercise, leads to the restoration of pain-free movement and function.

Kinesiotaping
Kinesiotaping is a taping technique that gives support and stability to your joints and muscles without limiting circulation and range of motion. Through the use of an elastic tape placed on the skin overlying muscles and joints, it can be used for preventive maintenance, limiting swelling, and pain management.
