Individuals suffering from mental illness can achieve better mental and emotional wellness as their hormonal imbalances and physical health improves under chiropractic care. We incorporate various therapies including EMDR, IMT, and yoga as well.
IMT is the integration of techniques to assess and address all systems in the body. While IMT diagnostics and treatment modalities are predominately hands-on, IMT also integrates a wide range of diagnostic and treatment technologies, nutritional programs, and IMT body based psychotherapeutic approaches to develop a customized solution for the individual’s needs. IMT practitioners specialize in treating complex conditions such as chronic back pain, migraine headaches, learning disabilities, autism, diabetes, sports related injuries, chronic fatigue, infertility and women’s health needs, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, depression, anxiety, and many other problems.
During this chiropractic therapy, electrodes are placed on the skin that send light electrical pulses to different areas of the body with the purpose of reducing inflammation, curtailing muscle spasms and relieving back pain.
The most common form of electrical stimulation, TENS units feature electrodes that are placed over the painful area with the user having the power to control the intensity of electrical stimulation. It is believed that TENS help block the transmission of pain signals along the nerves and also release the body’s natural painkillers, endorphins.
Our chiropractors will provide patients with functional foods to heal from and treat chronic conditions and may suggest a dietary plan to help with their back pain, and some may recommend supplements after spinal manipulation.
