Chiropractic Sports Medicine
Our Chiropractic Sports Medicine services focus on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal injuries related to athletic activities. We employ evidence-based techniques to address conditions like joint pain, muscle strains, and ligament sprains. Our approach combines spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitative exercises to restore function and prevent future injuries. Patients benefit from tailored care plans designed to enhance performance and expedite recovery.
Active Release Therapy
Active Release Therapy targets soft tissue dysfunction caused by overuse injuries or scar tissue buildup. Our providers use precise manual techniques to release tension in muscles, tendons, and nerves. This therapy effectively resolves conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and tennis elbow. Patients experience reduced pain, improved mobility, and faster healing through this hands-on, movement-based approach.
Alter-G Anti-Gravity Treadmill
The Alter-G Anti-Gravity Treadmill uses NASA-developed technology to reduce body weight during rehabilitation or training. Patients recover from injuries with less joint stress while maintaining cardiovascular fitness. This technology aids in gait analysis, symmetry tracking, and performance enhancement. It is ideal for athletes seeking faster recovery and individuals managing chronic pain or mobility limitations.
IASTM
Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) detects and treats fascial restrictions and scar tissue. Specialized tools amplify tactile feedback, enabling targeted treatment of adhesions and inflammation. This technique accelerates healing for conditions like neck pain, back pain, and tendonitis. Patients benefit from reduced recovery time and improved tissue function without invasive procedures.
KLaser Therapy
KLaser Therapy utilizes FDA-cleared Class IV laser technology to reduce pain and inflammation while stimulating tissue regeneration. This non-invasive treatment increases circulation and cellular metabolism, promoting healing for acute and chronic conditions. Patients with arthritis, sports injuries, or post-surgical recovery needs experience drug-free pain relief and accelerated healing through this advanced photobiomodulation therapy.

Great experience. First time visit today. Has some lower back pains. The Dr. evaluated me and zeroed in on the problem. He spent a good deal of time stretching and adjusting my back. And it feels so good now. Total relief. Very happy.

I'm so thankful to have been introduced to Dr. Maria. She is very realistic and helpful in all of her approaches. I see her as needed for a "pain in the neck" to random injuries. She has helped me realize a trip to any chiropractor is not a one trip fix all, yet doesn't push for excessive repeat visits. Often she has provided site specific exercises or stretches while explaining very well how they should feel and how they shouldn't as well as how they will help.
These have often been my go to especially if I can't get an appointment right away. The new office space is so pleasing to the senses and the staff are some of the friendliest around. It's been very meaningful to me that they all seemed to recognize me early on. That personal touch keeps me going back and has made me feel comfortable taking my 13 year old son there as well as he's taken some tumbles on the bike and playing soccer.
