In addition to chiropractic care, acupuncture, and shockwave therapy, we offer a variety of complementary therapies designed to support healing, reduce pain, improve mobility, and promote long-term wellness. These therapies may be recommended as part of a personalized treatment plan based on your individual condition and recovery goals.
Use these links to jump to the following therapies: Graston Technique®, Cox® Flexion-Distraction Technique, The Webster Technique, Myofascial Release Therapy, Sacro Occipital Technique, Tui Na Therapy, Soft Tissue Therapy, Electrical Muscle Stimulation, or Therapeutic Ultrasound Therapy.
Graston Technique®
The Graston Technique® is an evidence-based form of instrument-assisted soft tissue therapy used to help identify and treat scar tissue, muscle adhesions, and fascial restrictions.
Using specialized stainless-steel instruments, this technique helps improve mobility, reduce pain, and accelerate recovery from chronic or repetitive-use injuries. Graston Technique® is commonly used to treat conditions affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues.
Benefits may include:
- Improved flexibility and range of motion
- Reduced scar tissue and muscle tension
- Faster healing and recovery
- Enhanced athletic performance and mobility

Cox® Flexion-Distraction Technique
Cox® Technic is a gentle, non-surgical spinal decompression therapy performed using a specialized chiropractic table designed to reduce pressure on the spine and discs.
During treatment, the doctor carefully guides the spine through controlled stretching and flexion movements to help relieve back pain, neck pain, disc injuries, and nerve compression.
This technique is commonly used for:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Sciatica and nerve pain
- Chronic low back pain
- Degenerative disc conditions
- Spinal stiffness and reduced mobility
The goal of Cox® Technic is to help patients move from pain to relief as comfortably and efficiently as possible.

The Webster Technique
The Webster Technique is a gentle chiropractic approach used during pregnancy to help support pelvic alignment and reduce tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments. This specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment aims to reduce nervous system stress while optimizing mom’s pelvic function in pregnancy and birth. In some cases, adjustments may help support optimal conditions for fetal positioning, though it is not a method for turning babies.

Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release (MFR) is a hands-on soft tissue therapy that focuses on relieving tension and restrictions within the fascia — the connective tissue surrounding muscles and joints.
Restricted fascia can contribute to pain, muscle tightness, limited movement, and poor circulation. Myofascial release techniques are designed to gently stretch and relax these tissues to restore normal movement and function.
Benefits of Myofascial Release may include:
- Reduced muscle tension and pain
- Improved flexibility and mobility
- Better circulation and lymphatic flow
- Enhanced recovery from injury or overuse

Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT)
Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a gentle, low-force chiropractic method used to help balance the pelvis, spine, and nervous system.
This relaxing technique uses specially designed wedges or blocks placed under the body to encourage natural alignment and reduce structural stress. SOT is particularly helpful for patients seeking a more subtle and non-forceful approach to chiropractic care.
Developed through decades of research and clinical application, Sacro Occipital Technique focuses on improving the relationship between the pelvis, spine, and overall body function.

Tui Na Therapy
Tui Na (pronounced “twee nah”) is a traditional form of Chinese therapeutic bodywork that has been used for centuries to promote healing, improve circulation, and restore balance within the body. Often used alongside acupuncture and chiropractic care, Tui Na combines gentle stretching, rhythmic pressure, and targeted massage techniques to address muscle tension, joint discomfort, and restricted movement.
Tui Na therapy may help:
- Relieve muscle tightness and tension
- Improve circulation and flexibility
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Support injury recovery and rehabilitation
- Promote relaxation and overall wellness
Because it focuses on both the musculoskeletal system and the body’s energy pathways, Tui Na can be an effective complementary therapy for patients seeking natural, holistic care.

Soft Tissue Therapy
Manual soft tissue therapy may be used to reduce muscle tightness, improve circulation, and help break down scar tissue or adhesions within injured areas.
These techniques are often beneficial for:
- Muscle strains and tension
- Sports injuries
- Chronic pain conditions
- Restricted movement and stiffness
Soft tissue therapy can also complement chiropractic adjustments and rehabilitation exercises to improve overall treatment outcomes.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation Therapy
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) uses gentle electrical impulses to stimulate muscles and nerves in targeted areas of the body.
This therapy may help:
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Improve muscle activation
- Decrease muscle spasms
- Support healing and recovery
EMS is commonly used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for both acute and chronic conditions.

Therapeutic Ultrasound Therapy
Therapeutic ultrasound uses sound wave technology to promote circulation and stimulate healing in injured muscles, ligaments, tendons, and soft tissues.
Ultrasound therapy may help:
- Increase blood flow
- Reduce inflammation
- Improve tissue healing
- Decrease pain and stiffness
This gentle therapy is often used to support recovery from injuries and improve soft tissue function.
