Chiropractic
Chiropractic services at Dynamic Health Therapy focus on providing holistic care that supports the body’s natural healing processes. The treatment primarily involves manual adjustments and manipulations of the spine and other parts of the body to improve alignment, alleviate pain, and support overall health and well-being.
Possible Patient Concerns
Patients may visit a chiropractor for back pain, neck pain, headaches, whiplash, sciatica, and other conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system.
How It Can Help
Chiropractic care is designed to restore balance to the body’s structure and function, reduce pain and discomfort, enhance mobility, and promote a healthier lifestyle. It can be particularly effective for pain relief and improving range of motion.
Possible Patient Concerns
Chiropractors are primary healthcare professionals who have completed the Doctorate of Chiropractic (DC) program at an accredited chiropractic institution, receiving more than 4,200 hours of specialized clinical training. They are regarded as musculoskeletal (MSK) specialists, possessing enhanced diagnostic skills, and various treatment skills including soft-tissue treatment, exercise prescription, spinal manipulative therapy, ergonomic advice, and others. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques to treat and prevent disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system and extremities. Their focus is not only on complete and full recovery from pain/injury, but also preventing/minimizing reoccurrence of injury, and performance enhancement, all with the goal of supporting overall health and well-being.
What we treat.
Chiropractors effectively treat both acute and chronic conditions such as:
Muscle or joint pain (such as neck, back, shoulders, elbows, hips, knees).
Muscle tightness or repetitive strain injuries (carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow).
Tension headaches.
Acute/chronic tendonitis.
Muscle strains/ligament sprains.
Postural strain/muscular imbalances.
Acute/degenerative disc herniations/disease.
Running injuries.
Plantar fasciitis.
Piriformis syndrome and other nerve entrapments.
Osteoarthritis of the spine and extremities.
Whiplash and other MVA-related disorders.
Co-existing medical constraints that involve myofascial tissue, tendons/ligaments, and neural tissue.
Many more
Depending on your needs, treatment techniques alone or in combination may include:
Active Release Technique® (ART®) is a non-invasive hands-on soft tissue and nerve treatment used to break up scar tissue and adhesions that can form due to direct injury or repetitive movement over time.
Graston Technique® uses specifically designed treatment instruments to isolate and treat minor fibrotic changes in tissues to improve musculoskeletal mechanics and decrease pain.
Acupuncture is the use of sterilized acupuncture needles to help decrease muscle spasm/tightness and increase blood circulation to encourage the body’s natural healing response. It is successful in reducing stress, muscle tension, and providing pain relief.
Chiropractic manipulation/mobilization is a safe, effective technique used to treat motion impairments and helps to normalize joint mechanics, reduce pain, and restore range of motion, helping the body to heal naturally.
Exercise prescription is used to help maintain and build on improvements made during treatment visits. They can include stretching, strengthening, proprioception (balance) training, and core stabilization.
Various other modalities such as low-level laser therapy, Shockwave Therapy, and XXX may be used to help augment other treatments and promote healing of tissue.

What Can I Expect from a Chiropractic Visit?
Chiropractors combine detailed history taking with observation, orthopedic testing and skilled manual palpation.
They use this toolkit to locate dysfunctional muscles and joints and identify the cause of pain. Your chiropractor may administer treatment such as adjustments, mobilizations, soft tissue therapy, acupuncture, rehabilitative exercise and advice.
Are you looking for a trusted chiropractic alignment? The Dynamic Health Therapy chiropractic team is ready to help.
A chiropractic adjustment (or alignment) is a thrust with a specific direction and amplitude, targeted to a dysfunctional joint with the intent to restore proper motion and function.
Adjustments have a modulating effect on the nervous system, which can result in the relaxation of tight muscles and even transient improvements in blood pressure.
Mobilizations are another technique that is often used, which involves slower impulses and more constant pressure to achieve the same result. Sometimes a popping sound is heard from adjustments and mobilizations. This is caused by the rapid separation of the adjacent joint surfaces and gas entering the joint.
Your chiropractic treatment may further include rehabilitative exercises. The purpose of rehabilitative exercises is to address weak links in the kinetic chain or dysfunctional postural adaptations.
Exercise is an important component in maximizing the joint function improvements achieved during treatments. Keeping up with corrective strength exercises is an essential piece to keeping the pain away, allowing you to continue doing the daily activities that you love.
You can quit your search for chiropractic and massage. At Dynamic Health Therapy, we are thrilled to offer both services for your convenience. This allows for a collaborative and integrative approach to your health.
