Chiropractic
Chiropractors are registered health professionals and complete a minimum of five years of university education. They are trained to treat mechanical issues of your musculoskeletal system which is made up of muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and your nervous system.
Manual therapy techniques are used by chiropractors to improve the function of your spine and other joints in your body and can help with conditions such as low back pain, neck pain, headaches, and poor posture.
Chiropractors are also trained to prescribe stretches and exercises to treat and rehabilitate conditions related to muscles and joints to help support your body.
Medical Acupuncture
This technique uses a combination of medical acupuncture points and traditional Chinese medicine points (TCM) tailored to your individual needs.
Dr. Julie Hunter completed her Medical Acupuncture Training from the University of McMaster (Canada) in 2009.
Gwasha
Is a soft tissue tool that is used to break up adhesions in the muscle and draw more blood flow to the area that may aid in restoring proper muscular mechanics and function.
Soft Tissue
Treatment of soft tissue included muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia and may include trigger point therapy, general muscle release, active muscle release or using tools such as guasha (muscle stripping).
These are used to help ease muscle tension and help restore proper function and range of movement.
