CORRECTIVE CHIROPRACTIC CARE
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?

At Iafrate Chiropractic  we take a unique approach to health care by looking beyond symptoms. Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline that believes in the inherent recuperative abilities of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. We seek to uncover and address the source of pain and discomfort, and work to bring your body to a state that’s not simply pain-free, but optimized to handle whatever life throws at you next.

Chiropractic is a non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the neuromusculoskeletal system.  Chiropractors usually  treat disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system and external joints. The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. What is often missing is the role of the nervous system in pain and healing. The nervous system supplies vital information to the muscles, joints and organs in your body. It also coordinates the bodily functions, stress hormones, healing and immunity. When your nervous system is not functioning well, it may prevent healing and/or cause pain to persist even once the local area has apparently healed. 

 Chiropractic is a core piece of fitness and health at every age. From the newborn to grandparents, health can be improved by restoring the body’s communication.   

Radial Shockwave

UNIQUE AND POWERFUL TECHNOLOGY

Radial shockwave therapy (RSWT) is a method for the treatment of superficial orthopedic disorders developed over the past 20 years. A projectile accelerated in the handpiece generates a mechanical pressure wave, which is transferred to the human body by an applicator head and which radiates out in the tissue.The mechanical energy is absorbed by the tissue and decreases as the distance from the application site increases. The mechanical stress triggers reactions in the tissue that have a positive influence on a wide range of orthopedic and neurological conditions.

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY WORKS BEST FOR:

  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Rotator Cuff Tendonitis
  • Muscle Spasms
  • Tennis/Golfer’s Elbow
  • Trigger Points
  • Bursitis

WHAT CONDITIONS DOES SHOCKWAVE THERAPY TREAT?

Insertion tendinopathy

  • Tendon problems
  • Chronic inflammation
  • Hypertonic muscle systems
  • Myofascial syndromes
  • Hemotoma treatments
Cold Laser Therapy

If you are like many people suffering from chronic pain, inflammation, or certain diseases and have tried other more common treatments or therapies without relief, perhaps it’s time to consider FDA-approved Cold Laser Treatment. This kind of therapy can significantly accelerate and enhance your body’s natural defense and repair components.

WHAT IS COLD LASER TREATMENT AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

Cold Laser Treatment is done with a handheld, noninvasive, light emitting medical device used in the treatment of several soft and connective tissue disorders and certain neurological disorders. Unlike other lasers that produce heat and thermo-destructive laser energy, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is also known as “cold laser.”

The FDA cleared Cold Laser Therapy as a form of phototherapy or light therapy. The cold laser device produces a beam of light, which is applied over the injured area to stimulate healing in a pain-free manner. The laser light triggers biological reactions in the cells producing chemical substances that are released into the blood flow and carried throughout the body causing some patients to experience relief in more than the treated area.

Here are some of the beneficial results of cold laser treatments:

  • Reduces pain through the increase of natural endorphins.
  • Reduces inflammation, swelling, redness, pain, and heat.
  • Increases circulation and the natural healing process.
  • Relaxes tight muscles.
  • Allows bones to repair themselves more quickly.

HOW DOES COLD LASER THERAPY HELP?

Since Cold Laser Therapy can stimulate all cell types including muscle, ligament, cartilage, nerves, etc., it can be used to treat a variety of conditions including:

  • Back, knee, and neck pain
  • Arthritis pain
  • Sprains/Strains
  • Tendonitis
  • Joint pain
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis
  • Fibromyalgia pain
  • TMJ
  • Plantar Fasciitis
