Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is extremely effective in treating chronic pain. It involves applying pressure to the myofascial connective tissue or trigger points. The benefits of myofascial release include increased range of motion, improved flexibility, and reduced pain
Massage Therapy
Our Massage Therapists offer a variety of techniques to address your specific healthcare needs. Appointments are available for 1/2 and 1 hour sessions.
Therapeutic Laser
Therapeutic Laser emits visible coherent light that is applied to a affected area. Low Level Lasers are different than the more publicized heat laser that are used in many surgical procedures to cut and cauterizes tissue. Low level lasers do not have a thermal effect and are used to stimulate tissue. The Erchonia Laser is the first in the world to gain FDA market clearance for the treatment of chronic neck and shoulder pain. The overall effects are decreased pain and inflammation as well as increased range of motion.
Detox Foot Baths
How does the Detoxification Footbath work?
Body toxins come from the air people breathe, the water they drink, the food they eat and their lifestyles. Stress and depression are body toxins also.
Detoxification works by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination. The body also eliminates toxins through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph and skin. When this system is compromised, impurities aren't properly filtered and every cell in the body is adversely affected. The footbath was designed to help enhance your body's natural detoxification process by using a direct current to create an electronic field which in turn creates ions. This electrical contact with all the primary meridians in the body allows for the release of trapped molecules. The meridians are one of several pathways for toxins released to exit the body.
The use of the EB Pro Detox Footbath benefits may include:
- Restored vitality
- Stronger immune system
- Increased mental clarity
- Clear skin
Creative Visualization and Relaxation Technology:
What is Creative Visualization/Relaxation?
Visualization is the basis of the human ability to create, innovate and dream, and is the primary component of imagination. Additionally, visualization has long been the primary tool for mind/body healing. From a scientific perspective, we know that visualization directly impacts the body's neurological system, it has direct influence on the body. Creative Visualization that uses the power of your own mind to relax the muscles, slows the heart rate and decreases blood pressure, thus creating the Relaxation Response - the perfect state for learning, healing and focusing on goals. Benefits may include:
- Increased blood flow to the brain, resulting in clearer thinking, better concentration, improved memory, and enhanced creativity.
- Up to a 21% increase in serotonin, which calms the mind and body and creates an overall sense of well-being.
- Up to a 25% increase in endorphins, the hormones that flow through your body when you feel happy
- Better sleep patterns. Twenty minutes of CVR can be equivalent to 3-4 hour of sleep, so you may find yourself sleeping less, feeling more rested, accomplishing more, and finding extra enjoyment in life.
