Chiropractic Adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments are a drug-free, natural therapeutic treatment where a licensed chiropractor manipulates joints in your body with their hands or with special instruments. Also referred to as joint manipulation or spinal manipulation, chiropractic adjustments can help reduce pain through correcting your body’s misalignments, optimizing physical function. Chiropractic adjustments not only reduce pain from misaligned or restricted joints, they also help nerve signals from the brain reach their intended targeted tissues (muscles, joints, organs, hormones  etc.) This process unblocks the Neuro pathways that misalignments cause so that the targeted tissues will perform optimally, as they are intended.

Manual Therapy

​Manual therapy promotes healing with the use of metal tools that are used on the skin to help bring more blood flow to the muscles, break up scar tissue and realign scar tissue to allow for better range of motion and more flexibility. It also loosens tight muscles and relieves trigger points to reduce pinpoint and referred pain. 

Spinal Decompression/Traction Therapy

Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy uses motorized traction to help relieve back pain by gently stretching the spine. As the spine is manipulated and its force and position shifts, pressure is taken off the spinal discs (gel-like cushions between spinal vertebrae) by asserting negative pressure in the disc. This may help bulging or herniated discs retract and promote better movement of oxygen, water, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs and stimulate natural healing properties. Traction therapy uses mechanical rollers underneath the spine to allow for better motion and alignment of the spinal column. The spinal decompression and traction therapies are coupled simultaneously to also help with pushing nutrients in and waste products out of the discs. This process will heal injured discs and keep healthy discs hydrated. It will also reduce degenerative processes from prematurely taking place.

Neuromuscular Re-Education

Dr. Lorin uses a series of therapeutic techniques to restore normal function of muscles and nerves and optimize balance, movement, coordination, kinesthetic sense, and proprioception. This includes:

  • Manual techniques such as PNF-proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation 

  • Exercises for core control and balance

  • Activities aimed at re-developing normal controlled movement patterns

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Therapeutic ultrasound is a noninvasive procedure that provides relief from pain and helps loosen tight muscles in a targeted area. The machine uses low-power ultrasound waves to create vibrations and raise the temperature of the specific body tissue to break up scar tissue, optimize blood flow, and promote healing. Therapeutic ultrasound works to push out fluid in a targeted area which helps it disperse and become absorbed by the body to reduce inflammation. This process encourages the cells in the injured area to produce more energy by speeding up the metabolic rate of the cells to allow for faster healing.

Stem Treatment

Electric muscle stimulation (E-stim) is used to help rehabilitate muscles from an injury by accelerating the body's natural recovery process. Some benefits of E-stim include:

  • Reducing swelling

  • Relieving pain in the body

  • Promoting general muscle tone 

 

Electrical impulses are delivered to nerve endings in the injured area to provide pain relief and soothe the nerve endings, and the increased blood flow may promote healing.

Therapeutic Exercise

This treatment promotes better whole-body balance and function, increases strength after injury to pre-injury strength or better to decrease chances of re-injury and to allow the body to perform at its optimal level.

Sports Taping

Flexible adhesive tape or kinesiology tape is applied to the skin in specific ways to treat neck pain, back pain, and shoulder pain. It is a safe and gentle therapeutic technique that helps reduce pain in the muscles and joints. Dr. Lorin can tape any joint or muscle to ease your pain. 

Cupping

Cupping therapy is an alternative medicine technique that has been used for thousands of years. Dr. Lorin briefly places cups on the skin to create suction and promote blood flow. Cupping therapy helps with:

  • Inflammation

  • Relaxation and well-being

  • Blood flow

  • Pain
