A variety of therapies and techniques are used to treat chronic and acute pain. Whether you were recently injured or you have been dealing with a chronic health condition for decades, a chiropractor may provide your best chance for recovery. At Georgia & Thurlow Chiropractic, we have been sharing the benefits of chiropractic care with residents of Vancouver, British Columbia for many years. Read on to learn more about some of the techniques we use.
Active Release Technique
Active release technique is used to help many people who are struggling with mobility or a lack of flexibility. Active release technique, or ART, involves the manipulation of tissues to ease the pain associated with soft tissue injuries. If your body has healed improperly and you have developed excessive scar tissue or are experiencing a lingering injury, this technique can be helpful.
Chiropractic Adjustment
Chiropractic adjustments are a beneficial technique for easing pain and immobility associated with spinal misalignment. Manual adjustment and instrument-assisted adjusting are both options when you are trying to find relief from pain.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is also incredibly beneficial for those trying to release tension that causes serious pain in the back, shoulders, and neck. Your chiropractor will use techniques tailored to your specific needs and symptoms.
Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger point therapy relies on putting pressure on certain parts of the body to release tense bands of muscle tissue. By releasing your trigger points, our chiropractor can reduce your pain and improve your range of motion.
Rehabilitative Exercise
Exercises help you build strength, which is especially important when you are injured. Exercises, when performed correctly, improve imbalances in your body so that your weight body can evenly bear the weight of your body.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is a beneficial technique for repairing tissue that has become injured or inflamed. Wavelengths reach your body's tissues, relieving pain and encouraging the body’s natural healing process. This form of therapy is ideal for those living with arthritis, neuropathic injuries, tendinitis, fibromyalgia, low back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, or musculoskeletal pain.
