Active Release Techniques
Active Release Techniques (ART) treat soft tissue injuries by addressing scar tissue and adhesions through hands-on evaluation and precise tension combined with patient movement. This method effectively resolves conditions like headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and plantar fasciitis. Patients benefit from individualized sessions that restore mobility and reduce inflammation.
Graston Technique
The Graston Technique uses stainless steel instruments to break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions, treating chronic inflammation and soft tissue fibrosis. This noninvasive method benefits athletes and active individuals by accelerating recovery from acute or post-surgical conditions. It's particularly effective for improving range of motion and reducing pain.
Chiropractic Treatment
Chiropractic care focuses on natural healthcare through joint manipulation and complementary techniques to restore mobility, reduce spasms, and alleviate pain. This approach addresses spinal misalignments and musculoskeletal imbalances, offering non-invasive solutions for chronic discomfort and injury recovery.
Acupuncture/Dry Needling
Acupuncture and dry needling target myofascial trigger points to relieve pain and musculoskeletal dysfunction. By stimulating sensory nerves in injured tissues, these techniques reduce inflammation and break down scar tissue, providing effective relief for chronic pain conditions and sports injuries.
Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping facilitates healing by supporting muscles and reducing swelling through specialized Rock Tape application. This technique treats sports injuries like shin splints and runner's knee while improving posture awareness. The durable tape provides extended support during daily activities and recovery phases.

Dr Sherman made a huge difference for me with a serious injury, ultimately helping prevent the need for surgery. He's incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Absolutely a 5 star medical professional.

Dr Sherman is very knowledgeable! He explained everything and made me understand why I might be having pain. My hip is feeling more relaxed and pain has decreased after one session. Great doctor! Lyn in the front office was very nice too.

Report
I went here because I had an extreme lack of mobility on one side of my body that had caused me great pain in my neck and traps and had made my body asymmetrical as well. I had severely tight muscles and had seen other "professionals" who performed work on me that didn't help at all and wasted me lots of money. Within a few sessions with Dr. Sherman, my performance in the gym was greatly improving and I could finally do movements I hadn't been able to do in years. He knows what he is doing and I would (and have) recommend him to anyone.

As a later-in-life athlete I found Dr. Sherman while seeking a solution that can keep me in my sport. In the last couple of years he has been a great help both in healing my catastrophic injuries as well as general maintenance. I have also had many similar positive reports from the many friends and colleagues I have referred to him. Highly recommended!

Dr. Sherman is superb at what he does. If you are dealing with a physical injury, I would recommend Dr. Sherman with absolute confidence in his ability to heal. I suffered from a shoulder injury that was giving me constant pain. After visiting Dr. Sherman, my arm began to heal, and each time I returned it got a little better until it was completely healed. I felt no more pain from the injury whatsoever. He is dedicated to healing and giving the highest quality of care.

My experience from scheduling to final session was exemplary. Jessica is thoughtful and kind, and helped me feel comfortable from day one. Dr. Sherman is awesome. I'm not a pro (or even semi-pro) athlete, but was referred by one of my friends who has completed a couple ironman competitions. She said he's the best in the business. I had to do more sessions than he initially thought, but man, my Achilles doesn't hurt anymore and I'm able to run further and faster than before my treatments (which wasn't even my goal-- I just waned the sometimes sharp/shooting, sometimes aching pain to stop).
I did the exercises he recommended as well as allowed my body to recover, while he used tissue massage to promote healing. I'm almost sad to not see the Doc and Jessica anymore but am super happy to feel so great! I completely recommend Dr. Sherman for your sports-related injuries!
