Services
Soft Tissue Treatment
Specialized manual therapy targeting fibrous adhesion in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Our certified practitioners use precise palpation and instrument-assisted techniques to break down scar tissue restricting movement and causing chronic pain. This treatment restores normal tissue function and alleviates nerve entrapments in patients with persistent musculoskeletal conditions, particularly those who've exhausted conventional treatment options.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Targeted joint manipulations to improve spinal mechanics and nervous system function. We employ both traditional hands-on adjustments and Activator Methods for precise vertebral realignment. This treatment addresses structural imbalances contributing to chronic pain while complementing our soft tissue protocols, with emphasis on patient comfort and biomechanical optimization throughout the adjustment process.
Adhesion Release Therapy
Advanced treatment protocol for identifying and eliminating fibrous adhesion affecting movement and causing pain. Using Integrative Diagnosis methodology, we perform comprehensive biomechanical assessments to locate adhesion sites, then apply specialized manual and instrument-based techniques to restore normal tissue mobility. This therapy specifically targets the most common yet frequently misdiagnosed cause of chronic musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction.
Corrective Exercises
Custom-designed exercise regimens to reinforce treatment outcomes and prevent recurrence. Our individualized programs focus on improving muscle activation patterns, joint stability, and movement efficiency through targeted strengthening and stretching exercises. Patients receive comprehensive home exercise instruction, combining manual therapy benefits with neuromuscular re-education to enhance overall treatment effectiveness and long-term pain management.
Shockwave Therapy
Non-invasive treatment utilizing high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate tissue healing. This technology breaks down chronic adhesion while promoting new blood vessel formation and tissue regeneration. We apply focused shockwave therapy to treatment-resistant soft tissue conditions, offering a safe alternative to surgery with minimal recovery time and immediate functional improvement in patients experiencing persistent pain from muscular and tendon pathologies.

Questions
What makes your approach different from traditional chiropractors?
We focus specifically on soft tissue dysfunction and fibrous adhesion as the root cause of pain, combining chiropractic adjustments with specialized manual therapy and modern diagnostic techniques that traditional practices typically don't address.
What types of pain do you treat most effectively?
We specialize in treating chronic muscle, joint, and nerve pain resulting from adhesion formation, including persistent back, neck, shoulder, knee, and extremity pain that hasn't responded to other treatments.
How long does treatment typically take?
Treatment duration varies by individual condition, but most patients experience significant improvement within 6-12 sessions. Our diagnostic-first approach ensures targeted interventions that often produce faster results than generic therapy protocols.
Is your treatment covered by insurance?
Chiropractic care is typically covered by most PPO insurance plans. We recommend checking with your specific provider for coverage details and work with patients to maximize allowable benefits under their plans.
Do you treat post-surgical patients?
Yes, we treat patients with persistent pain following surgical procedures when adhesion formation contributes to ongoing symptoms. Our non-invasive approach can often resolve residual pain without additional surgical intervention.
What should I expect during the first visit?
Your initial consultation includes comprehensive assessment, detailed movement analysis, and specialized testing to identify adhesion-related dysfunction. We'll develop a personalized treatment plan and begin targeted therapy during this first appointment.

These guys are the best! I started going just as they re-opened after the initial shutdown and haven't stopped. They have fixed every ache and pain I can come up with. I would much rather see Dr. Lambert and Maggie than go to traditional physical therapy and Roxane makes scheduling easy. You owe it to yourself to go! I all ways say I feel sorry for people with aches and pains that haven't found them. Give them a call!

After years of being in pain and thousands of dollars spent on chiropractic care, massage, and physical therapy, the cause of my pain still had not been diagnosed. After the first couple of visits with Dr. Lambert, I started to improve and now roughly two months later I'm completely pain free. I am extremely grateful to Discover soft tissue + spine and I highly recommend!

I have been seeing Dr. Lambert and Maggie for years when he was a "regular" chiropractor and Maggie a massage therapist. Always happy to see them and find relief. Many pain-free years passed when I did not need chiropractic care. When a situation developed with my hip/back/leg with an acute onset of PAIN, I sought help through the regular Md. doctor/insurance/physical therapy route. That failed for various reasons.
I then went to the new and improved soft tissue and spine practice that Dr. Lambert and Maggie now use. It is not a miracle, yet it seems miraculous, that once I could barely walk and now I can walk all day without pain. Always personable and professional. Not to leave the receptionist, Roxanne, out of the high marks, she is cheerful, personable and efficient. I recommend them to all my friends who aren't finding relief through their doctors.

I have done chiropractic care most of my life but over time developed more and more hip pain, partially due to a Morton's Neuroma which was causing me to walk wrong. A friend suggested Discover Soft Tissue & Spine as they had helped her so much. So far I have had my hip pain alleviated and Dr. Eric continues to work on my feet. I was able to run errands and get groceries without excruciating neuroma pain for the first time in 3 months. I know the neuroma will take time to heal, but I am so impressed with the treatment and care so far.
