REDUCE WEAR AND TEAR
Increased activity that involves high velocity, repetitive and aggressive movements take a large toll on the body often leading to joint and muscle dysfunction. Minimize the effects by getting adjusted and promoting proper joint mobility.
VARIETY OF TREATMENT OPTIONS
Active Release Technique - movement based soft tissue therapy to decrease stress and tension to injured muscles.
Cupping - Improve circulation, range of motion, and flexibility
Dry Needling - treatment used to eliminate pain and movement impairments caused by muscle trigger points.
3. ENHANCE PERFORMANCE
Preventative or supportive care to help eliminate movement dysfunction in the body before injuries occur
Keeping the body in peak condition
Treating minor injuries early before they develop into larger more widespread problems
Allowing athletes to have a competitive edge
4. DECREASE POST GAME PAIN
Athletic activity can cause joint and muscle soreness
Improve joint motion reducing stress on surrounding soft tissue and nerves throughout the body
