EFFECTIVE TREATMENT TECHNIQUES: ENHANCING MUSCULOSKELETAL HEALTH
Kinesiotape is the original elastic therapeutic tape that can be used for pain relief, increased motion, improved circulation, decreased swelling and improved muscle functioning. When applied strategically kinesiotape can be used to influence skin, fascia, muscle, tendon ligament or joint in order to restore balance in the body. Cupping is used to provide local pain relief and muscle relaxation and increased fascial mobility. Tuning Fork Vibration is a form of mechanical energy that impacts the connective tissue of the body. It's helpful to remodel scar tissue, decrease pain and improve mobility. Dermoneuromodulation is an interactive and light form of manual therapy used to facilitate change in the nervous system. It adopts the idea that in order to facilitate changes in pain and motor output the focus of treatment needs to be on the nervous system. By moving the skin in a slow and light fashion away from the area of pain, it helps create more space for the grumpy nerve to move. DNM utilizes comfort inducing positions to ease the mechanical deformation of nerves and may help to reduce noxious stimuli. IASTM: instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization is a skilled myofascial intervention used for soft tissue treatment to mobilize muscles, fascia, tendons and reduce pain, increased blood flow to tissues and improve movement. Fluidotherapy is a modality of dry heat that uses a suspended air stream with the properties of a liquid. It simultaneously performs the functions of applied heat, massage, and sensory stimulation levitation and pressure oscillations. It is also referred to as a dry whirlpool. LASER Light Therapy is a treatment used for reduction of chronic and acute pain. It increases ATP production to promote healing and reduce nerve cell excitability. AT wedges were developed by Alison Taylor and are used to promote digit alignment and muscle balance, free up nerves thereby decreasing pain and improving motion. Paraffin wax treatments is a form of heat helpful in softening scar tissue and decreasing hand pain.
