Therapies used by Dr. Orwick

	Flexion-distraction table - A moving table that is used to open the spine, making adjusting easier and bringing nutrition to the discs.
	Spinalator table - A table that you lie on and it rolls up your spine. It stimulates the receptors and locks your adjustment into the nervous system.
	Interferential - Electric therapy that relaxes the muscle, gets the swelling out, kicks in your natural pain relief chemicals, (endorphins and encephalin),  makes more ATP and protein to expedite healing.
	Ultrasound - Sound wave therapy for deep muscle relaxation.
	Percussor Tool- Tight muscles can prevent the vertebrae from moving while doing an adjustment. The Percussor is a small, powerful massager tool that vibrates on a certain frequency that releases stiffness of the Fascia, the band of fibrous connective tissue enveloping, separating, or binding together muscles, organs, and other soft structures of the body. Patients are getting phenomenal results with conditions such as TMJ and Plantar Facitis using the Percussor tool.
	Cold Laser Therapy- Erchonia PL 5000 Low  Frequency Cold Laser is the only FDA approved cold laser. Although people rarely feel it you can definitely experience the results in as little as 10 minutes. During your visit we will do a 10 minutes demonstration. We  measure range of motion (ROM) and muscle strength before and after the laser treatment. 90-95% of people discover they have increased ROM in each  direction by 2-7 degrees and see weak muscles become stronger. Muscle strength is a reflection of nerve conduction or interference. It is proving to be very helpful for all kinds of difficult cases like carpal tunnel, TMJ, Frozen Shoulder, Osteoarthritis, as well as the basic strain/sprains and neck/back pain. The laser is cutting edge technology and is using Quantum Physic principals. To learn more about his amazing new addition to our  practice, click here to read Dr. Orwick’s Laser Article.
	InfraRed – Deep heat with infra red waves is used to decrease swelling and inflammation, to relax muscles, increase circulation and facilitate detoxification. Intra cellular toxins like substance P, prostaglandin E2, luekotreins cause pain.
	Myofacial Release & Trigger Point Therapy - Hands on therapy used to release the fascia and toxins.
	Massage (massage machine ) - Used to relax muscles and increase blood flow.
