In a time when addiction to prescription and non prescription drugs is at an epidemic, a non drug manual approach to pain relief may be just what your body is crying out for.
What will you do the next time you are in pain?
I see a naprapath to get to the cause of pain and not just medicate the symptoms.

CRANIAL SACRAL THERAPY
Cranial Sacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the craniosacral system. This system is made up of the membranes and fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

CST utilizes a soft touch no greater than 5 grams to the cranial bones and all along the spine to release tension and blockages in the craniosacral system. When these blockages and tension are removed, the function of central nervous system is inhanced, the membranes surrounding the nervous system can relax, and the body's natural healing processes can restore what imbalances have developed in the body. CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to increase resistance to disease, and decrease pain and dysfunction associated with many conditions including:

Migraine Headaches
Chronic Neck and Back Pain
Chronic Fatigue
Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
Scoliosis
Learning Disabilities
Emotional Difficulties
Stress and Tension-Related Problems
Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders
Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
Neurovascular or Immune Disorders
Post-Surgical Dysfunction

LYMPH DRAINAGE THERAPY
Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT)

Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) uses flat hands to simulate gentle, specific wave-like movements. These subtle manual maneuvers activate lymph and interstitial fluid circulation as well as stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems. It is shown that when these actions are accomplished, the results can be:

Reduction in edemas (swelling) and lymphedemas of various origins
Detoxification of the body
Regeneration of tissue, including burns, wounds and wrinkles
Anti-aging effects
Relief of numerous chronic and subacute inflammations, including sinusitis, bronchitis and otitis
Relief of chronic pain
Reduction in the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia
Antispastic actions to relieve conditions such as muscle hypertonus and some forms of constipation
Deep relaxation to aid insomnia, stress, loss of vitality and loss of memory

Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) developed by Bruno Chikly, MD, of France, enables practitioners to detect, map, and reroute the direction of the lymph flow anywhere in the body. This is very effective and essential post surgery, burns, acute injuries, or removal of lymph nodes.

CUSTOM FOOT ORTHOTICS
Orthotics are a great way to help with issues related to walking and alignment. Some of these include but are not limited to knee, foot and lower back pain. The need for orthotics is often related to an issue with the natural functioning of the foot. Orthotics will often help to realign the bones within the foot and ankle and therefore take pressure of other parts of the body such as the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In addition, orthotics will help with distributing your weight properly and take further pressure off of toes, bunions and other parts of the foot.

Orthotics are really for anyone with an issue or discomfort relating to walking or imbalances in the body that are known to cause related pain. The great benefit of orthotics is that they can be worn on a daily basis and be utilized during most activities to take further stress of the body.

Orthotics can often be prescribed by your naprapath and can last well over a year in most cases. This is a great investment into your overall health and well being via a biomechanical standpoint.

ULTRASOUND
Ultrasound is a therapy that is utilized in the office to handle injuries related to joints, muscle spasms, as well as most soft tissues. While it shares the same name, this ultrasound is not the same as the type of ultrasound utilized diagnostically to screen internally in the body. This ultrasound creates small sound waves that in effect vibrate and massage soft tissues and muscle. These sound waves do an excellent job in facilitating the body's healing process in addition to decreasing scar tissue formation.

Certain ultrasounds also create a heating effect to help relax the muscles or tightness in the body. This heat combined with the overall features of the ultrasound help to start the healing process at the most basic cellular level speeding up your road to recovery.
