Spinal Manipulation

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Shreveport: (318) 222-6297

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

The spinal adjustment is done to correct a vertebral misalignment that is causing pressure on the nervous system. It consists of a gentle, specific, manipulation to the spine that can be performed manually or with the use of adjusting instruments. By removing pressure upon the nervous system, via the spinal adjustment, proper nervous system function is restored to the body and therefore promoting overall wellness within the body. Spinal adjustments are effective at reducing or eliminating acute pains and conditions associated with trauma/injury OR at maintaining optimum health and function, if injury is not a factor.

Ultrasound

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

Ultrasound is often used to provide deep heating to soft tissue structures in the body. Deep

heating tendons, muscles or ligaments increases circulation to those tissues, which is thought to help the healing process. Along with helping the healing process, ultrasound is also successful in alleviating from patients suffering soreness and pain from a motor vehicle collision.

Myofascial Tissue Release

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Shreveport: (318) 222-6297

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

Myofascial release is a type of physical therapy often used to treat myofascial pain

syndrome. Myofascial pain syndrome is a chronic pain disorder caused by sensitivity and

tightness in your myofascial tissues. These tissues surround and support the muscles throughout your body. The pain usually originates from specific points within your myofascial tissues called “trigger points.”

Myofascial release focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness in the trigger points. It’s not always easy to understand which trigger point is responsible for the pain. Localizing pain to a specific trigger point is very difficult. For that reason, myofascial release is often used over a broad area of muscle and tissue rather than at single points.

Dry Needling

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Shreveport: (318) 222-6297

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

Dry needling is a form of therapy in which fine needles are inserted into the myofascial

trigger points (painful knots in muscles, tendons, ligaments, or nerves) in order to stimulate a healing response in painful musculoskeletal conditions. Dry needling is NOT acupuncture. Dry needling is a modern science-based intervention for the treatment of pain and dysfunction of musculoskeletal conditions such as neck pain, shoulder impingement, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, headaches, knee pain, plantar fasciitis, TMJ disorder, low back/hip pain, or numbness/tingling into extremities.

Dry needling may provide relief for some muscular pain and stiffness. In addition, easing the trigger points may improve flexibility and increase range of motion. That's why this method is often used to treat whiplash, sports injuries, muscle pain, and even fibromyalgia pain.

How long does dry needling take to work? Although you may have some soreness after a

dry needling session, you will often notice some improvement in your symptoms within 24-48 hours.

Interferential Therapy

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Shreveport: (318) 222-6297

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

Interferential therapy also known as Physiotherapy plays a vital role in management of

pain. This type of therapy is very effective and is used in relieving pain and discomfort usually as a result of injuries which produces muscle spasms. This helps to accelerate the process of self-healing and getting a patient’s body free from pain and regain healthy physical conditions. In this therapy, the interferential current is produced on the skin, of the affected body part of the patient, with the help of an interferential device. This interferential current penetrates into the skin and reaches the underlying living muscle tissue.

Generally, this treatment is not given to patients having any severe health conditions. In cases of pain as a result from an injury in the neck, shoulder, knee joint or back, this treatment gives temporary relief of the location. This therapy is given to patients for 15 minutes in a single session.

Intersegmental Traction

To Schedule an appointment please call:

Shreveport: (318) 222-6297

Bossier: (318) 741-8111

Intersegmental Traction is a roller therapy that induces passive motion into the spine for

the purpose of stretching spinal joints, in order to increase mobility. In a nutshell, it helps to re-establish normal range of motion.

For a disc injury, this treatment will be used to gently stretch each of the vertebrae where the disc is damaged. It is painless. Separating them a little bit enables some healing to take place and pain relief is often felt immediately. This will help the disc to get more nourishment and to begin the healing process. To aid in the healing process, we also use a hot moist pack layered with multiple towels to help reduce muscle spasms by increasing blood flow in the area that is treatment.
