Chiropractic Therapy

Chiropractic is a highly skilled treatment by trained professionals. The word chiropractic comes from Greek, meaning “treatment by hand”. It focuses on the source of your pain and discomfort, not the symptoms. Your body moves and holds different postures through the specific interaction of muscle, joints and nerves. When everything is working well, the body can perform and function in a pain-free state. The stress of daily living, injuries, or accidents can a dysfunction in the interaction of these systems. Over time, this dysfunction manifests itself as pain. Chiropractors understand how to relieve this pain. They are specially trained to find the source of your pain, diagnose the problem, and offer a customized treatment specific to your condition that will allow you to return to proper function. Chiropractors may use a wide variety of treatment modalities including deep muscle work, electrical stimulation, exercise, adjustments, or acupuncture. The combination of these therapies is dependent on the condition and the patient’s goals.
Active Release Techniques(ART)
 
ART is a patented, state of the art soft tissue system/movement based massage technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and permanently with ART. These conditions all have one important thing in common: they are often a result of overused muscles.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and to improve functioning. This is done by inserting needles and applying heat or electrical stimulation at very precise acupuncture points. Needling the acupuncture points stimulates the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will either change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body's own internal regulating system. The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture results in stimulating the body's natural healing abilities, and in promoting physical and emotional well-being.
Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is a comprehensive intervention involving a range of techniques to manipulate the soft tissues and joints of the body. The purpose of massage therapy is to prevent, develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function or relieve pain. It is a clinically-oriented health option that achieves undeniable results in the relief of an array of discomforts stemming from stress, muscular overuse and many chronic pain syndromes. The therapeutic process is a partnership between client and therapist, working together towards common and realistic goals.
Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine is one of the fastest growing health professions. Naturopathic doctors use an individualized approach, which involves treating each case uniquely. ND's work to identify the underlying cause(s), and after thorough case-taking, proper assessment and diagnosis is completed, your ND will decide which combination of treatment modalities best suits you. Naturopathic doctors are trained to treat a wide variety of acute and chronic conditions, safely, and effectively.
Reflexology

Reflexology is a therapeutic massage based on the principle that there are points in the feet, head and hands that relate to the entire body. When the reflex points are stimulated, the body's natural electric energy works along the nervous system and meridian lines to clear any blockages on meridians and body parts in the corresponding zones. Reflexology increases circulation, reduces tension, boosts immunity and helps to balance the whole body. It can be an effective treatment for a wide variety of conditions including but not at all limited to: high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, asthma, menstrual problems and insomnia. A session is approximately one hour and consists of head, foot and hand reflexology.
Custom Orthotics
Your feet are the foundation of the body. Faulty foot mechanics can start with foot pain, bunions, knee, hip or low back pain. Prescription orthotics are made to correct your specific foot imbalance by exerting gentle consistent pressure to bring foot muscles and bones back in proper alignment. Fusion Chiropractic & Integrative Health carries a wide variety of inserts, shoes and sandals that meet your lifestyle needs.
