Spinal Decompression
Our specially-equipped spinal decompression table will ever-so-slowly stretch your spine. And then relax it. Stretch. And relax. Excellent for disc cases.
Spinal decompression seeks to assist clients in moving their bodies so that gravity and manual adjustments will allow for spine realignment. Our office has found success by using the Ring Dinger®️ technique of spinal decompression. This technique was developed by Johnson Biophysics and uses a specialized table to gently shift the movements of your body to relieve pressure on the nerves that may have been pinched during spinal misalignment.
According to Medium, the Ring Dinger®️ uses a biophysical approach. That system is based on the natural design of the spine and uses the Ring Dinger®️ table along with gentle manual pressure to correct any existing misalignment. The same website noted that the system's creator devised its name to describe the unique sensation produced by the Ring Dinger®️ treatment.
Vibration Therapy
Vibrations transmit energy to the muscles and activate them, offering musculoskeletal rehabilitation to the body. Vibration therapy has several advantages. It improves blood circulation, balance and dexterity. It helps build muscle strength in the upper and lower extremities. It also helps spastic and splinted muscles relax. Vibration therapy may also prevent spasms of over-stimulated muscles and enhance dexterity.
Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release Therapy is a targeted, high-speed vibration therapy. It provides relief to soft tissues by removing the harmful scar tissues and adhesions. The high frequency vibrations free muscles and nerves from scar tissue binding. This provides immediate pain relief and restores your range of motion quickly. Because of the effectiveness of this therapy, many professional athletes use it to speed up the healing process.
Myofascial Release treats soft tissue related conditions in muscles, ligaments, nerves, tendons and fascia. It provides relief to a number of conditions like shoulder pain, knee pain, wrist pain, elbow pain, hip pain, Carpal Tunnel syndrome, arthritis pain and myofascitis.
