ServicesChiropractic Adjustment: Chiropractic is manual/hands on approach to helping patients feel better and allow their body to function at its best. A Chiropractor's goal is to identify impingement areas in the spine where the nerves could be trapped and creating a physical problem. Since your nerves talk to the skin, the muscles and the organs, any of these systems can be impacted from a pinched nerve. Chiropractors use spinal movements or manipulations to align the spine, open up the spaces where the nerves exit and relieves the physical problem. Some of the techniques Dr. Knight-Nanni uses to adjust the spine include: Full Spine, Thompson Drop Table, Activator, Active Release, Diversified, and Traction. Although there are many ways to do the job, each Chiropractor's goal is the same and that is to get painful joints to track better and release the tension.
Ultrasound Therapy: Ultrasound therapy is the use of ultrasonic waves (sound waves of a high frequency) to produce a mechanical vibration of the metal treatment head used against a patients skin. The treatment head is then moved over the surface of the skin in the region of the injury. A special ultrasound gel is placed on the skin to ensure maximal contact between the treatment head and the surface of the skin. Ultrasound causes heat and vibration at the site of application which Dr. Susan has found very helpful in the treatment of myofascial trigger points, muscle knots and areas of tense muscles that are painful.
