Pediatric and Pregnancy Care
A very special group of patients seen daily at our clinic are the pediatric and pregnant patient. In 2001 Dr. Lisa completed a specialty program with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association earning a Fellowship in Chiropractic pediatrics and Pregnancy. Dr. Lisa has also been certified in the Webster Breech Turning Technique which naturally turns a breech baby working only with the pelvic joints and musculature. The following training has enabled Dr. Lisa to safely and effectively treat musculoskeletal discomfort associated with pregnancy, working along side obstetricians, midwives and doulas.
Shockwave Therapy
Accelerate healing and regenerate new tissue with shockwave therapy. A non-surgical treatment which accelerates recovery of injured soft tissue, bone, heel, and joint pain. Permanent relief typically begins about 72 hours following treatment.Laser Therapy
Low-level laser light is compressed light from the cold, red part of the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. These properties allow laser light to penetrate the surface of the skin with no heating effect, no damage to the skin and no known side effects. The laser light directs biostimulative light energy to the body’s cells which the cells then convert into chemical energy to promote natural healing and pain relief.Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy provides a deep heating effect to body tissues. Creating heat draws blood to the area,thereby promoting tissue restoration and healing. Some of the additional benefits of ultrasound include; pain relief, reduction in muscle spasm, increase in soft tissue elasticity, and an increase in enzyme activity.
TENS-Transcutaneous Electrical Nervous Stimulation
Tens therapy uses an electrical current to stimulate nerves deep within the muscle layers. This allows for deep muscle contraction followed by relaxation for a set period of time. The results are less muscle tension and a decrease in pain.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is an integral part of our clinic and is recommended for a majority of our patients. It aids in the relaxation of muscles and helps with the recovery process. Some of the benefits of massage therapy include; deep tissue relaxation, pain relief, toxin release, stress elimination, and improvement of circulation. We presently have two registered massage therapist, Angela Unholzer and Damian Charles.
Thai Yoga Massage
This type of massage therapy is an ancient Thai massage technique incorporating rhythmic motion, energy line work, gentle stretching and assisted yoga postures in a comprehensive healing modality. During the session you relax as you are moved into various stretches that help tone and revitalize your muscles and internal systems. It is one of the best things you can do for your mind, body and soul.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is performed by Dr. Rino on a regular basis at Cabana Court Chiropractic. Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine needles through the skin and tissues at specific points on the body. Acupuncture aims to balance energy and blood in the body in order to keep it functional and healthy. By stimulating the body to produce its own pain relieving chemicals, called "endorphins", pathways that relay pain messages from the body to the brain are blocked thus relieving pain, promoting relaxation and restoring the body's own internal regulatory systems.
Soft tissue / muscular therapy
During this technique, Dr. Rino uses her hands to evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves. Abnormal tissues are treated by combining precisely directed tension with very specific patient movements. As the muscle is actively stretched, the doctor applies pressure to release tightness and adhesions between the muscle layers.
Reflexology
Reflexology works to break up deposits under the skin which may interfere with the natural flow of the body’s energy. Blockages in zones can inhibit our body from functioning optimally. While manipulating the reflexes we remove stress and activate a parasympathetic nervous system response. There is a physiological change in the body with allows our energy to work along the nervous system, clear blockages, potentially eliminate toxins and achieve a sense of balance. With circulation improved, stress removed, and the natural flow of energy restored, we allow ourselves to be in a state of homeostasis.Custom Foot Orthotics
When a foot imbalance is present, such as fallen arches, greater mechanical stress is placed on your joints including our hips, knees and back. A digital foot scan can help to see if you have these imbalances which may need correction. Foot orthotics, if required, are custom made and are medically proven to restore balance at the base, ie; your feet. This will aid in the elimination of pain and discomfort in the feet as well as higher up in your body’s kinetic chain such as in your spine.
