Your body's healing processes can't work properly if your nervous system isn't at 100%. If the vertebrae surrounding your spinal cord lose their normal position, your nervous system may not function properly. At Hess Family Chiropractic, we can help!

Therapies

Electric Muscle Stimulation

Electronic Muscle Stimulation is a form of muscle therapy that improves circulation, reduces inflammation, relieves muscle pain and spasm, and enhances soft tissue healing. Electrode pads placed on the skin administer gentle electrical impulses to the area of pain or spasms, causing a contraction of the muscle at rest to promote healing and strength.

Intersegmental Traction

Intersegmental Traction is a way of inducing passive motion into the spine for the purpose of stretching spinal joints and increasing mobility. The patient lies face-up on a bench table that has roller-type cams beneath its surface. These rollers can slowly travel the length of the spine, stretching spinal joints. Most patients find this form of treatment to be relaxing and very helpful. The gentle rolling action is restful and exercises the spine without effort.

IASTM

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) is a technique we often use in different bodywork professions. IASTM works like a standard massage, but specialized instruments are used in place of a therapist's hands. These instruments allow more direct treatment of the soft tissues involved with movement.

Cupping

Cupping therapy can generally be described as a technique that uses cups placed over the skin to create negative pressure through suction. A vacuum or suction force inside the cup pulls your skin upward. Cupping uses suction to draw blood to or away from specific areas of your body. People mostly use cupping to relieve conditions that cause pain. Some people say it also helps with chronic (ongoing) health issues. Cupping may ease symptoms of:

  • Arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Back pain, neck pain, knee pain, and shoulder pain.

  • Asthma and other breathing issues.

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome.

  • Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders like irritable bowel disease (IBD).

  • Headaches and migraines.

  • High blood pressure (hypertension).

Rehabilitative Exercises & Stretches

Rehabilitation exercises aim to return to full function following injury through re-building muscle strength, endurance, power, and improving overall flexibility and mobility.
