Trigger Point Release
A trigger point is a knot in the muscle that refers pain, itching, burning, even ticklishness, to other muscles. Often, this therapy relieves pain by working on areas which seem unrelated. Few people know that the major cause of trigger points is their daily activity, not physical trauma or stress.
Assessment
Goniometers play a major role in objectively assessing joint mobility and setting therapeutic goals. Tight muscles can restrict joint movement, which, in turn, causes further tightening. We not only strive to return an injured joint to its normal range of motion, we make sure the relationship between symmetrical joints is relatively equal. This is significant for increasing strength.
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
This modality stretches muscles beyond their current active range. Modalities include active resist and release, contract and release, and traction. Studies indicate that PNF twice per week can substantially improve athletic performance.
Deep Tissue
This modality focuses on specific joints and muscles to relieve pain, increase range of motion, improve structural alignment and balance. Muscles and connective tissues are lengthened, broadened, and separated with direct pressure and deep friction that breaks up intramuscular tissue adhesions. Contrary to popular belief, this massage is not painful.
Passive Stretch Therapy
Sometimes called “Lazy Man’s Yoga,” this modality gently and progressively stretches muscles to decrease contraction in inactive muscles and increase joint range of motion. It is highly effective in treating snapping hip, frozen shoulder, and improving athletic performance.
