Chiropractic Care

A Chiropractic Adjustment adjustment is very quick force delivery by the doctors hands or instrument to an affected joint that has lost its normal function or biomechanics. This commonly produces a popping noise which is a rapid release of gas from the joint. When the joint is stuck, fixated or misaligned it is not functioning the way that it is designed. The adjustment allows the body to start the healing process, removing the inflammation and allowing synovial fluid(lubrication and nutrients to the joint) to take affect.

Massage Therapy

Dr. Davis utilized targeted massage therapy techniques such as myofascial and trigger point release during his adjustments. These are utilized to restore proper function to the muscles allowing the adjustment to take place more easily. Muscles are what move our bodies and we have many through out our spine. If you do not regularly work the muscular tension surrounding the spine then the adjustment itself can be difficult and non lasting

Soft tissue injuries include damage to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia which is the connective tissue that runs through our entire bodies. Most commonly, these injuries occur from strains, sprains and chronic over use injuries. These injuries can cause inflammation, pain, and loss of range of motion. These chronic repeating injuries can cause adhesions to form. Tools are utilized to help remove these adhesions. This is IASTM, or Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization.

Cupping

cupping is a form of massage therapy that utilizes suction through cups to decompress soft tissues.
Cupping is generally non painful and relaxing. Redness or feelings of warmth are usually experienced after the
cups are removed due to a increase in blood flow to the area.
