Expert Diagnosis
We take a comprehensive approach, first focusing on the main area of concern, but also incorporating and evaluating surrounding body regions for a thorough examination. Throughout a care plan we use test and re-test methodology to determine the course of treatment and appropriate adjustments to achieve the most efficient and effective outcome.
Exercise and Manual Therapy
Together, the patient and provider develop a plan to include a variety of treatments. Treatment may include manual therapy techniques to address limitations in joint mobility and muscle tightness. We also use a wide range of therapeutic exercise prescriptions and progression. We initially focus on specific muscle activation and coordination then move forward to functional and recreation-specific training techniques.
Ultimately, the goal is for each individual to develop an extensive understanding of their movement patterns for optimal performance and function in life and fun.
Functional Dry Needling
is a specialized treatment method using thin monofilament needles directed into a trigger point. This then causes a twitch response which helps to decrease muscle tightness and pain through the biochemical and mechanical changes within the muscle fiber. Following treatment at the trigger point, muscle activation exercise will be used to aid in returning the muscle to normal function.
