Consultation

This is a one on one communication between the doctor and patient. This allows the patient to identify their goals, concerns, problems, and expected treatment outcomes. The doctor will assess possible treatment options, patient's understanding of treatments, and the patient's willingness to comply.

Evaluation (Exam)

The doctor examines the patient complaints utilizing the following:
1) Orthopedic and Neurological examinations
2) Range of motion for joint related complaints
3) Functional Capacity Test

Treatment

The treatment is based on patient complaints and concerns in light of positive findings on the examination. Treatment is primarily in the form of chiropractic manipulative technique with possible adjunctive support in the form of:

1. Ultrasound (deep penetrating sound wave that creates heat and vibration, increasing circulation, breaking down fibrous tissue, and promoting healing)
2. Electrical muscle stimulation (interferential, iontophoresis)
   Used to relax muscle spasm, tension, improve circulation and decrease pain
3. Myofascial release (therapeutic massage)
4. Heat and ice packs
5. Intermittent cervical traction
6. Intermittent lumbar traction performed by the doctor
7. Nutritional therapy
8. Cold Laser Therapy - Low level laser therapy is a form of phototherapy or light therapy. This involves the application of low power light to areas of the body in order to stimulate healing. It is used to help control pain, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing of damaged tissue. Low level laser therapy treats a variety of conditions including: Arthritis, tendon and ligament inflammation, nerve root irritation, shoulder & back pain, repetitive strain injuries, TMJ, plantar fascitis, burns, wounds and a variety of skin conditions.
9. BioCleanse - the BioCleanse Unit generates a programmable mix of positive and negative ions (charged atoms) which attach themselves to oppositely charged toxic particles and draw them out of the body through pores in the feet. The result over several sessions is a remarkable release of many different toxic materials, a growing feeling of well-being and a significant increase in overall energy. BioCleanse sessions are painless, comfortable and easy to negotiate.
10. Positive Lifestyle changes (proper posture, fitness training, strength and stretching, spinal stabilization, diet counseling)
11. Team work approach between doctor and patient with emphasis on equal participation for optimum outcome.
