Advancements in Foot Orthotics

You might be surprised at the level of engineering, patents, and craftsmanship that go into foot orthotics:

• High-precision 3D scanning technology
• Patented 3-Arch design to support the three arches of the feet
• Advanced materials that absorb shock, wick sweat, and reduce odor
• Technology that educates patients while they wait

Custom Orthotics are imperative in balancing your musculoskeletal system. This, in turn, reduces or removes stresses in your knees, hips, and back – allowing them to function properly and without pain. Your entire body will function better and with less pain. It’s truly amazing how such a small device under your feet accomplishes so much but we’ve heard story after story how custom orthotics, combined with Chiropractic, has changed lives and restored health.

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy is similar to therapeutic ultrasounds. This method can be used to treat muscle strains, and it uses stronger shock waves than other methods. It is a more intense treatment, but it’s very effective.

Laser Therapy

Laser medicine has become a very popular addition in chiropractic medicine. It goes by the names of low-power laser, cold laser, soft laser, and therapeutic laser as well. It is not an invasive procedure, and it is virtually painless. It can treat a wide variety of issues such as injuries, arthritis, and chronic pain. To perform laser therapy, chiropractors must apply red and infrared light to the injuries, which then stimulates the cells in the body and repairs tissue. This process also reduces inflammation and pain.

Laser therapy is usually called low-power laser, cold laser, soft laser, or therapeutic laser. The procedure is non-invasive and virtually painless, treating a wide variety of issues such as injuries, arthritis, and chronic pain. To perform laser therapy, chiropractors must apply red and infrared light to the injuries. This will stimulate repair of the cellular tissue. Laser Therapy also reduces inflammation and pain.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy is commonly used by chiropractors today. This method stretches and relaxes the spine. The method uses a specific traction table. Since it doesn’t involve surgery, this therapy can also be referred to as non-surgical decompression. Older forms of traction used an inversion table to apply a strong and steady force to the patient’s body. This would help the muscles and joints. Using the new form of spinal decompression is just as effective, and it’s also more relaxing for the patient. It is fully computerized, and technology can control the traction pull on the spine. The great thing about using technology is that it is very easy to adjust to the individual patient’s needs.
