New patient Appointments. Chiropractic Chiropractic is a licensed health care profession that emphasizes the body's ability to heal itself. Treatment typically involves manual therapy, often including spinal manipulation. Other forms of treatment, such as exercise and nutritional counseling, may be used as well. Never in the history of chiropractic care have chiropractors been able to provide the level of help and expertise that is available today.
Many of the newest chiropractic techniques are actually safer, more comfortable, and more effective than ever before. As a chiropractor who cares about utilizing the most modern advances in the chiropractic field, Dr. Patrick Black has years of training, expertise and experience in helping patients get pain relief for back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other related conditions originating from the spine.
ESWT requires no incisions or downtime. In fact, most patients see long-term results after only three treatments, which take about 15 minutes each. Myofascial Release Not all pain is caused by obvious injuries, like broken bones or cuts. Some pain may stem from myofascial tissues. These tough membranes are wrapped around the muscles to provide support and connect them to other parts of the body. Myofascial pain syndrome is a chronic pain disorder caused by sensitivity and tightness in a patient's myofascial tissues.
It is not always easy to understand what trigger point is responsible for the pain. Localizing pain to a specific trigger point is very difficult. For that reason, myofascial release is often used over a broad area of muscle and tissue, rather than at single points. Massage Therapy Massage therapy does more than make one feel good, it can actually help the body achieve balance and health.
Massage therapy offers a natural treatment approach, which actually relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our chiropractic office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is complimentary to each patient's chiropractic care.
