We’re dedicated to helping you move better, feel better, and get back to doing what you love. Here are some of the core features of our chiropractic services.
Comprehensive Initial Assessment: Every new patient begins with a comprehensive assessment to gain a clear understanding of their condition. This includes an in-depth discussion about the nature of the injury, medical history, lifestyle, daily habits as well as past injuries or repetitive movements. A thorough physical examination follows, evaluating movement patterns, range of motion, and strength while assessing the area of concern and related regions above and below.
Medical Acupuncture: Also known as neurofunctional acupuncture or dry-needling. It involves the use of solid fine point needles inserted into key points and areas associated with your injury and areas that may be related. Most patients will not feel pain but only mild discomfort and often will feel almost immediate changes and results following medical acupuncture.
Hands on Manual Therapy: All sessions will involve hands on treatment known as Active Release Techniques or manual muscle release techniques. Other manual therapies may be used such as joint mobilizations, instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization similar to Graston Technique. As with any manual therapy some discomfort is to be expected both during and after the treatment but will pass within a few hours or the next day.
Traditional Chiropractic Manipulation : This involves a high-velocity, low-force adjustment designed to release joint pressure, frequently accompanied by a painless, audible “pop.” What sets our approach apart is the integration of medical acupuncture to relax tight muscles and hands-on manual therapy to enhance range of motion, this sometimes eliminates the need for joint manipulation or makes it significantly easier and more comfortable when required.
Education and Advice: When you understand the nature of your injury, it will empower you with the knowledge and tools to manage your condition at home. This includes advice on ergonomics, posture, and exercises helping you in your daily activities and prevent future injuries.
At Walker Health & Performance, our Performance Chiropractic services go beyond traditional adjustments, integrating a multidisciplinary approach to address the root cause of pain and improve overall function. Each treatment begins with an assessment to discuss your current state and will likely include medical acupuncture, soft tissue therapies and joint mobilizations or manipulations. After each session, patients often experience relief, improved movement, and a clearer understanding of their condition, setting them on a path to lasting recovery.
