Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression works by creating a negative pressure inside the spinal discs, which draws in any bulging or herniated material, like suction. This then stimulates the body to undergo a process know as "fibroblastic activity", producing fresh new tissues and ceslls. These new cells attach themselves to the torn fibers of the disc that cause its contents to bulge. When complete, it is stronger than before. The negative pressure will also draw in vital fluid and nutrients to rehydrate a degenrated disc.
Chiropractic Care
We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Brooks Travis has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.
Rehabilitative Exercises
We provide for our patients special rehabilitative exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises are performed in the office and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.
