Family Care
Every day, we all engage in physical activity: lifting groceries, pushing and pulling doors or carts, running to catch a bus, picking up your kids, etc. Whether we realize it or not, we are all athletes. From kids to senior citizens, pregnancy to post-op, from Average Joe’s to Pro Athletes- the human body functions best when we learn to use it and care for it properly. I aim to teach you by meeting you where you’re at- utilizing the principles of sport training to not only address pain and injury but to build strength and wellness. Everyone is welcome!
Muscle Therapy
Dr. Thomas is a certified ADVANCED provider of Graston Technique for muscle therapy, with over 10 years experience.
GRASTON Technique is a non-invasive, tool-based therapy aimed at breaking up scar tissue and myofascial adhesions ("muscle knots") in soft tissue. Stronger than human hands alone and highly crafted, Graston tools used by a trained clinician is a much faster and safer method of changing and improving muscle-related pain than traditional passive therapies. Dr. Thomas couples Graston Technique with targeted manual muscle therapy and has successfully treated neck, back, extremity, and post-surgical pain through incorporating this method.
Rehab Training
Rehab is not just for injuries! Rehab is for anyone who wants to improve their daily lives with increased strength, flexibility, and enhanced self care. Rehab training with Dr. Thomas consists of personalized exercises and stretches tailored to your unique needs and goals. The doctor's role is to guide you through your rehabilitation journey, prioritize your safety throughout the therapeutic process, and empower you to achieve your best. Rehab routines are often tailored to be fun and engaging, using or mimicking real-world activities to help you build your strength and mobility in an enjoyable way.
Adjustment
Chiropractic adjustments are specialized techniques that are used to correct misalignments in the spine and other joints of the body. Restricted, misaligned movement of the spinal joints tend to cause or contribute to pain, inflammation, headaches, and other problems. Dr. Thomas uses both traditional, manual adjustments and gentle tool-based adjustments, depending on what your body needs that day. Adjustment is always focused on restoring full range of motion to stiff or stuck joints. Being adjusted might be scary for some people, but Dr. Thomas will always utilize the quickest, safest, and gentlest means possible to align and restore motion to your spine and joints! Adjustment from a trained and licensed provider is an important tool to improving health and wellness- from newborns to elderly and everyone in between!
DRY NEEDLE THERAPY
Dry needling therapy (DNT) is a technique used to help release deep muscle pain and tension, stimulate the nervous system, improve blood flow, and invigorate healing. Microfilament needles are inserted by a trained clinician into specific muscle and nerve trigger points to engage deeper into the tissues and nervous system.
Neurologic DNT can be used to treat a variety of conditions, such as chronic pain, muscle tension, joint restriction, nerve pain, and movement impairments.
Schedule a consultation or DNT session as an add-on to your standard chiropractic visit!
