Chiropractic Modalities
In addition to the chiropractic adjustment, we also offer a variety of relaxing soft tissue modalities.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release is a soft tissue technique used to alleviate pain and tightness in the muscles and the connective tissue called fascia. Fascia surrounds and supports muscles, bones, and organs throughout the body. During myofascial release, Dr. Dudley applies gentle pressure or stretching to the affected area to release tension in the fascia and restore mobility.
Vibra-Cussor Massage
A vibra-cussor massage is a therapeutic technique that utilizes a handheld device called a vibracussor to deliver rapid, targeted vibrations to muscles and soft tissues. The vibracussor produces high-frequency oscillations, which penetrate deep into the tissues, stimulating blood circulation, reducing muscle tension, alleviating pain, and enhance overall relaxation and well-being.
Interferential Stimulation
Interferential stimulation is uses electrical currents to treat pain and promote healing. It works by sending low-frequency electrical impulses through the skin to target deep tissue areas. The benefits of interferential stimulation include pain relief, reduction of muscle spasms, increased circulation, and improved range of motion.
Intersegmental Traction
Interferential stimulation uses electrical currents to treat pain and promote healing. It works by sending low-frequency electrical impulses through the skin to target deep tissue areas. The benefits of interferential stimulation include pain relief, reduction of muscle spasms, increased circulation, and improved range of motion.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into tissue. It is commonly used to reduce pain, promote healing, and increase blood flow in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Benefits include pain relief, improved tissue healing, increased range of motion, and reduced inflammation
