Our specialists use a technique called CranioSacral Therapy to treat chronic and acute headaches and migraines in patients ages 8 years old and up. CranioSacral Therapy (CST) strives to restore good health and healing in the rhythm of the central nervous system. Disruptions in this rhythm can produce migraine headaches, chronic fatigue, orthopedic dysfunction, emotional strain, and a host of other problematic issues. Once trouble spots are pinpointed, the therapist works to restore the natural flow of fluids, soft tissues, and bony connections to help the body heal itself.
Trigger point dry needling is an effective physical therapy modality used for the treatment of myofascial pain and dysfunction. A solid filament needle is inserted into the skin and muscle directly at a myofascial trigger point. A trigger point consists of a hyperirritable taut band in a muscle which inhibits its function and can cause pain. The benefit of dry needling is that it precisely deactivates the trigger point, leading to biochemical changes that reduce pain, as well as increase muscle performance. Your therapist will talk to you if dry needling if it is appropriate for your treatment.
Cupping is a traditional therapeutic method utilizing negative pressure to lift connective tissue, loosen rigid tissue and scars, and bring healthy blood flow and nutrition to stagnant areas. While cupping became popular during the 2016 summer Olympics, it is a method that has been used for thousands of years.

Therapy may include manual stretching, muscle relaxation techniques, and strengthening exercises.
