      <image:title>Rehabilitation</image:title>
      <image:caption>No matter what your presenting condition is, rehabilitation principles can be utilized in your plan of management in order to not only treat your current condition, but help minimize how it effects you into the future. Rehabilitation is an important aspect of all treatment plans as it will help to both desensitize painful muscles and joints to movement, and it will increase the strength of those tissues to reduce the likely of future injury. Not only are rehabilitation principles used to treat conditions in the clinic, but they also offer a great way for you to be an active participant in your own health as they can be implemented long after you have left the clinic. They help to put you back in the driver’s seat when it comes to handling future flair ups and episodes to keep you out of the clinic and doing what you love. There are various exercise techniques that can be utilized including free-weight training, body-weight training, resistance bands, stretching, balance and proprioceptive exercises, core and posture training, and many more.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Orthotics</image:title>
      <image:caption>Your feet are the foundation for your entire body, and they undergo a lot of stress over the course of a lifetime. Fortunately, one of the things that Chiropractors are trained to do is assess and treat injuries and dysfunctions of the feet, and one of the treatments that they may prescribe to you in custom orthotics. Orthotics are not a treatment for every condition, nor will they work for every person, so it is important that you see a licensed professional in order for them to complete a thorough analysis of your personal situation and see if you would be a good candidate for custom orthotics. Orthotics are designed to help redistribute your body weight onto your feet, to help change the current loading pattern that is leaving you in pain. They do that by adding support and realigning how your foot makes contact with the ground. While orthotics are not directly fixing any biomechanical problems per se, they can help to give relief from conditions of the foot, ankle, knee, hip and lower back alongside a thorough treatment plan. Orthotics also do not last forever. Just like shoes, orthotics will wear out over time and need to be replaced every 6 months to 2 years depending on the amount of time that you are spending in them. If you think that orthotics may be something that will help your current condition, or have more questions about them, please do not hesitate to contact the clinic and book an appointment. Before coming to the clinic, please take a second and check your coverage from your insurance provider as some insurance companies will require a medical note before covering custom orthotics.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Running analysis</image:title>
      <image:caption>Are you in pain when when you run? Are you looking to get into running and want a solid foundation to get started? Are you a seasoned pro and looking to shave off that extra few minutes off your PB? No matter what level of a runner you are, it is always a good idea for someone to analyze your mechanics and make sure that you are running as efficiently as possible. Not only will this help to decrease the frequency of injuries when running, but it can also make you a faster runner! Common running related injuries that can be helped with biomechanical analysis include shin splits, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendonitis, hamstring strains, patellar tendonopathy, IT band syndrome and more. Dr. Steven Murray can work with you to correct some of the common mistakes that runners make and see any muscle weaknesses or poor motor patterns that may be present in your running stride using a video analysis system. He can then integrate this information into a treatment and exercise program for you to correct these imbalances. Using video analysis not only allows for correction of your running mechanics, but it will also give you a visual representation of what to look out for and work on during your next run.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Shockwave therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment method that uses shockwaves to simulate healing of muscles, ligaments and tendons. Shockwave therapy can be used for a variety of conditions including rotator cuff tendonopathy, achilles tendonopathy, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, jumper’s knee, plantar fasciitis and more. Shockwave therapy works primarily through increasing blood flood and stimulating tissues to increase the healing process by creating microdamage in the treated area. Shockwave therapy uses a specialized machine in order to generate and deliver high frequency shockwaves to the body. These shockwaves are transmitted through a gel and penetrate into the treated tissue. The process can be slightly uncomfortable depending on the tissue that is being treated, but some short-lived local redness and post-treatment skin sensitivity are the only adverse events that should be expected. If you believe that shockwave therapy may be for you, or it has been recommended by another healthcare practitioner, please click the link below to book an appointment!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Chiropractic manipulation</image:title>
      <image:caption>A chiropractic manipulation or “adjustment” is a technique that is used to increase the range of motion of a joint. It is usually performed in the spine, but any joint in the body can be manipulated using chiropractic techniques. During the adjustment, the joint is taken to its end range of motion. Once at the end range, a high-velocity, low amplitude thrust is delivered to momentarily take the joint past its end range of motion. This is where the cavitation or “pop” may occur. The cavitation does not have to occur in order for the adjustment to be successful, but it is commonly a result of the procedure. While chiropractic manipulation is a common therapy that is included in many plans of management for various conditions, there are many other therapies that a chiropractor can utilize in your treatment. Therefore, if you are hesitant to visit a chiropractor because you have not been manipulated before- not to worry! You do not have to be manipulated in order to receive therapy from a chiropractor. Chiropractic manipulation can be added or removed from your plan of management at any time.</image:caption>
