SERVICES
CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS
Chiropractic adjustments are used to impart motion to joints that are restricted. I utilize 3 styles of adjustments with my patients. These include: manual adjustments, Activator, as well as drop piece adjustments. The goal is to improve the motion of the joint and decrease pain.
BIOMEDICAL ACUPUNCTURE
Biomedical acupuncture uses small needles inserted at acupuncture points, as well as trigger points. The needles can help to decrease pain, improve blood flow to an area, and improve mobility.
SOFT TISSUE THERAPY
Soft tissue therapy is a hands on treatment used to decrease tension in the soft tissues (ex. muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia). Pressure is applied to the soft tissue in areas of tightness and is manipulated until tension begins to release.
PRE AND POST-NATAL REHABILITATION
As a GrowCo ambassador I am passionate about improving the care for people in the post-partum period. People who have just given birth deserve so much more than just 1 visit at 6 weeks telling them they are 'healed'. I work with pre and post natal patients to improve their core strength, pelvic floor control, and overall strength to prevent issues like pelvic pain, incontinence, or prolapse.
​
ORTHOTICS
Orthotics are used to help improve or maintain stability of the foot. They can be helpful for many conditions, such as low back pain, hip/knee/ankle pain, flat feet, neuromas, plantar fasciitis, and more. I provide a personalized gait analysis and a custom foot casting to ensure the orthotics are perfect for you!
COMPRESSION SOCKS/GARMENTS
Compression garments and socks can be used to help improve the blood flow in the lower limbs. Compression of the veins can ensure the flow back to the heart is optimal. Measurements are taken in clinic to determine the correct size, and the socks are ordered specifically for you!
EXERCISE PRESCRIPTION
Exercise is an incredibly important aspect of your health and wellness. Whether it be rehab after an injury, pre-hab before a surgery, or just general stretching and strengthening, I will help you determine what you should be doing to keep your body moving well.
CUPPING
Multi-sized cups are placed on the skin using suction. The cups are either left in place, or moved along the skin. The cups encourage blood flow to the area being treated. Discolouration may occur.
COLD LASER
This modality can help speed up the healing of tissues, reduce pain, and decrease swelling. It can be used for numerous acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions.
INSTRUMENT ASSISSTED SOFT TISSUE
A tool is used to scrape and apply pressure along soft tissues, to help break up scar tissue and adhesions, as well as bring blood flow to the desired area.
