Our Approach
- It’s all about timing and execution. There is an optimal time to use each therapy or treatment. Proper implementing and coordinating treatments leads to success.
- Restoring function is the key to regaining health and mobility. Correcting movement patterns is a big part of our treatments. Moving the joints correctly improves healing.
- Educating people in the principles of muscle therapy and the effects it has on body mechanics.
- To understand and remove the nerve irritation, weakness, and joint damage.
- We offer a realistic solution for disc injures, headaches and various chronic pain conditions.
Our Methods
ChiroActiveTherapy is the combination of active therapy movements, stretches, and exercises with scientific chiropractic and body mechanics.
SOS–Shouka Ortho Spinology is a hands-on treatment approach that realigns the whole body through pressure and stretching. Postural deformation is corrected with a slow and constant pressure. This carefully guides the body into correct posture. Tight muscles are released to allow the opposing muscles to fire. This is due to the agonist/antagonist muscle system. Resetting this system creates strength, balance and coordination.
ATP- Active Therapy Protocols or ATP are a series of exercises that are designed to restore normal movement patterns in your body. This results in better strength, balance, flexibility and coordination. ATP resolves areas of the body that get weak and move excessively (hyper-mobile). The hypo-mobile areas benefit with more flexibility and strength.
Scientific Publication:
Haldeman, MD, PhD; Shouka, DC; Robboy MD; Computed Tomography, Electrodiagnostic, and Clinical Findings in Chronic Worker’s Compensation Patients with back and leg pain. Published in Spine, 1988. This research was beneficial to the understanding of low back pain and spinal disc problems. It helped prevent many unnecessary back surgeries.
