What Is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a non-invasive, natural solution using the application of manual therapy to adjust the musculoskeletal system to improve your range of motion, reduce pain, restore nerve flow, and improve overall function.
What Is a Chiropractic Adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment or manipulation serves to restore function to the spine by correcting any misalignments, known as vertebral subluxations, using different chiropractic techniques. Misalignments may have an impact on spinal cord nerve roots, reduce your range of motion, and cause pain that ranges from mild to severe.
Active Release Technique
Dr. Currie at Highlands Chiropractic serving Greenville, SC, uses the active release technique (ART) to assist patients suffering from conditions related to the muscles, joints, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. This myofascial release technique uses targeted, manual pressure applied to the patient’s body as they move through a physical routine.
Graston Technique
The Graston technique (GT) is another form of chiropractic therapy. This instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization therapy uses six stainless steel instruments to detect and treat soft tissue dysfunctions like adhesions, breaking down the scar tissue to reduce your range of motion limitations.
Summus Medical Laser
We also offer Summus medical laser. This treatment is used to reduce and relieve pain and inflammation, stimulate blood flow to a targeted area, and speed up the healing process. This cold laser therapy penetrates the body down to a cellular level using amplified light to treat various musculoskeletal ailments like:
- Arthritic joints
- Injuries
- Neuropathy
- Chronic musculoskeletal pain
