The ProtecSpine traction chair is the only therapeutic device on the market that administers Floating Manipulative Therapy (FMT) for both chronic and acute cervical, lumbar and shoulder pain. FMT is a gravity-based, three-dimensional spinal therapy that uses the patient’s weight to gently decompress the spine in a seated position and allows for therapeutic stretches in a full range of motion in addition to Chiropractic spinal manipulation in a spinal traction position. It has clinical benefits for patients of all ages and mobilities.

A revolutionary treatment developed in France that combines various manual therapy techniques with a non-invasive, high frequency diathermy (deep heat) current. This improves the natural healing process in your body to relieve pain, accelerate tissue reconstruction, increase tissue elasticity/range of motion, and circulation. Tecar current is different than Electrical Muscular Stimulation (EMS) or Ultrasound (US) because it is a high frequency range therapy, as a opposed to a low frequency (EMS) or medium frequency (US) range therapy, that acts as a Physiological Bioaccelerator that stimulates the body’s natural repair mechanism, promotes cellular exchange, increases microcirculation, vascularization, and lymphatic drainage.

A breakthrough in vibration therapy; as opposed to percussion, vibration therapy is able to deliver 5 small strokes by the time a percussion instrument can deliver one stroke. This results in pain relief and muscular relaxation and can be used in a wide range of musculature, from fingertips, to hamstrings and even facial muscles! It is a non-invasive approach to treating minor aches and pains. Frequency: 155Hz +/- 10%

Another crucial “tool” in my treatment box, used to help balance brainwaves in order to maintain a healthy, and resilient brain. Braintap is the only neuroplasticity tool in the world that uses 5 different therapies to heal and improve your brain. The Braintap therapies include binaural beats, guided visualization, 10 cycle holographic music, isochronic tones and light therapy in order to optimize your mental state for your desired purpose such as relaxation, learning, memory, concentration, mental toughness and restoration.

During each painless treatment, laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area. Thus, creating an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness and pain. Function is restored and pain is relieved as the injured area returns to homeostasis. Clinical studies and research using laser therapy technology indicate the following beneficial effects of laser therapy on tissues and cells:
The vast array of KAATSU protocols are used for:
The inflated bands lead to a temporary and repeated engorgement of blood in either the arms or legs. This engorgement is a natural catalyst for myriad safe and healthful biochemical reactions in both your vascular system and brain. In particular, NO (nitric oxide), IGF-1 (insulin growth factor), endothelial cells (VEGF or vascular endothelial growth factor), HGH (human growth hormone), testosterone, adrenaline, plasmalogens and ceramides are produced as a result of the different KAATSU protocols.
When applied over a stretched muscle, RockTape lifts the skin, accelerating blood flow to increase the amount of oxygen available to the muscles, which reduces fatigue. RockTape also promotes lymph drainage to remove toxins produced by the body during hard efforts
The human body’s muscular system is divided into compartments and each one is separated by the myofascial system. The myofascial system is the second most innervated tissue next to the skin. The myofascial system also has a smaller network of nerves, then the muscular system, but those small nerves are more abundant and can be the source of undiagnosed and untreated pain. When ever your body suffers any type of physical trauma anything from bumping your thigh against someone, to a fall or a car accident, it will always leave residual inflammation in the myofascial system, even after the pain has gone away. The residual inflammation will result in fibrotic tissue, adhesions, or scar tissue that can cause pain and limit motion. These can be like super glue to your body. Fibrotic or scar tissue causes new cells to lay down in a disorganized manner. This prevents muscles from lengthening properly. The IASTM is used to introduce controlled micro-trauma to the soft tissue area to stimulate a local inflammatory response. This initiates the re-absorption of excessive fibrotic or scar tissue, and the remodeling of the soft tissue structure that was affected is facilitated. After this treatment and the remodeling of the fibrotic or scar tissue, the cells will become organized to better promote movement and reduce pain.
