Chiropractic Care
Dr. Erin White defines chiropractic care as a non-invasive, conservative approach to health care to help maintain natural function and mobility of the human body. This natural method of care holistically treats the whole body, and we work with you until we find the root cause of your pain.
Manual manipulation, known as an adjustment, is the primary method of care. It uses precise, directed movements to address misalignments, help relieve pain and discomfort, and restore proper joint range of motion and function.
NEW PATIENTS
Our Approach to Therapy
We base our care on cognitive behavioural therapy, which seeks to identify a patient’s thoughts and emotions. With injuries, there are often negative thoughts and emotions involved. We try to identify those, and educate the patient on how to turn those negative thoughts and behaviours into positive ones, resulting in fewer speed bumps along the way, and allowing for quicker recovery.
Our main adjusting technique is Diversified, but we use several other techniques, therapies, and modalities, including
- Active Release Technique (ART)®—soft-tissue technique used to reduce pain
- Acupuncture—used for pain relief and to promote healing by inserting very fine needles at specific spots in the problem area
- Class IV Laser Therapy—helps with inflammatory conditions like tendinitis
- Exercise Therapy—helps with mobility and builds strength
- Interferential Current Therapy (IFC)—muscle stimulation to help with pain and dysfunction
- Massage Therapy—hands-on method to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and release muscle tension
- Orthotics—custom insoles to help with posture and biomechanical deficits
- Soft-tissue Mobilization—uses stretching and deep pressure to break up scar tissue, relax muscle tension, and move trapped fluids causing pain and inflammation
- Spinal Stenosis Therapy—certified in lumbar stenosis; uses exercise to slow the process
- Ultrasound—helps reduce inflammation and swelling
