Physiotherapy
Electrical Stimulation (E-Stim)
E-stim is a therapeutic technique that uses electrical currents to stimulate nerves and muscles. It is commonly used to improve muscle function, reduce pain, and promote healing. Benefits include reduced pain and inflammation, improved muscle strength and function, enhanced blood circulation and healing, and relaxation before a spinal manipulation.
Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise is a structured and targeted form of physical activity designed to improve strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and overall function. It is commonly used in rehabilitation to restore movement, reduce pain, and prevent further injuries. These exercises are tailored to an individual’s needs and may include stretching, strengthening, aerobic conditioning, and neuromuscular retraining. Therapeutic exercise is beneficial because it promotes healing, enhances mobility, prevents muscle atrophy, and supports long-term recovery from injuries or chronic conditions. It plays a crucial role in managing musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiopulmonary disorders, helping individuals regain independence and improve their quality of life.
The Spinalator
The Spinalator is a mechanical spinal therapy device designed to provide gentle spinal mobilization, and massage. It consists of a padded table with rotating rollers that move along the spine, applying controlled pressure to help relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote spinal alignment. The Spinalator is commonly used in chiropractic and physical therapy settings to assist with conditions like lower back pain, muscle stiffness, poor posture, and spinal misalignment. By gently mobilizing the spine, it helps reduce pain, enhance flexibility, and promote relaxation. It is a non-invasive, passive therapy often used as a pre-treatment to manual adjustments or therapeutic exercises.
