Distinct from the type of cupping using glass cups in traditional chinese medicine (TCM), dynamic cupping utilizes silicon soft cups. We use a skin lubricant and move the cup to reduce likelihood of bruising and to lift the skin and underlying fascia to allow unimpeded movement of small painful nerves. We often couple this with movement to quickly reduce or even eliminate pain with movement. This cutting edge therapy is consistent with a changing paradigm in the treatment of myofascial trigger points.

Spinal manipulation (AKA spinal “adjustment”) has been shown in many scientific studies to help improve function, pain and range of motion for spine-related pain in the neck, mid-back and low back. Our doctors were distinguished to have been involved in the largest federally funded (National Institutes of Health) studies in the history of the chiropractic profession demonstrating the effectiveness in chronic low back pain and headaches associated with neck pain.

Extremity manipulation is often helpful in post-traumatic conditions involving the ankle, elbow and wrist. It is especially helpful in hip pain conditions with restricted range of motion in the hips. It is thought that unbalanced muscle activity around these joints may result in mild, decentration of the involved joints resulting in pain and restricted movement. The extremity manipulation helps to re-center the joint position and is then followed in our office with rehab exercises to help restore normal movement.

Dermal Traction Method (DTM) is a manual therapy and movement technique co-invented by Solutions Sports and Spine founder, Dr. Phillip Snell. Working within the changing paradigm in myofascial trigger points, the DTM clinician identifies restricted movement in local nerves involved in painful movement. We then lift the skin in these areas using dynamic cupping or manual methods and encourage the patient to move the painful area. When indicated, DTM can result in rapid relief of even chronically painful joints where many other methods have failed.

Developed by Italian physiotherapist, Luigi Stecco, Fascial Manipulation is a highly effective manual therapy targeting the fascial network of the body. Often unconsidered by most doctors, the fascial planes function as a highway system for small nerves and may even represent the “plumbing” of the meridian system in acupuncture. This technique is often effective stubborn painful conditions that have resisted improvement with other approaches.

Neurodynamic Solutions (NDS) is a manual technique developed by physical therapist and researcher, Michael Shacklock, PT, PhD. NDS considers the mechanical movement of nerves in relation to the structures they interact with. Most doctors are not taught to consider the mechanical behavior of nerves and this approach is highly effective in conditions involving pain, numbness and tingling. Our doctors have trained extensively with Dr. Shacklock.

Sometimes referred to as McKenzie Method, MDT was developed by physical therapist Robin McKenzie and is one of the most researched rehab methods to address joint pain in the neck, low back, and extremities. Our doctors are extensively trained in MDT and find it particularly helpful for chronic and severe low back pain, sciatica and neck pain.

NeuroCentric Approach (NCA) was co-developed by Solutions Sports and Spine founder, Dr. Phillip Snell and is the first rehab approach combining not only manual therapy but also rehab exercise. Our NCA trained doctors first fully assess the neural components potentially affected by a painful condition, then target manual therapies to reducing threat to that neurology. This innovative approach often succeeds where other treatments have been less effective because it targets the root cause of most chronically painful syndromes. The patient receives a detailed explanation of the process and manual therapy and exercise training they can do at home to help themselves better.

Dynamic NeuroMuscular Stabilization (DNS) was developed by Pavel Kolar, PT, PhD in the Czech Republic and is rooted in the exploration of developmental postures and movements shared by all people. DNS exercises are used by our trained clinicians to help perform a “soft re-boot” of the body’s movement patterns to help restore functional, sustainable movement patterns. DNS has been adopted by most training programs in MLB, NFL, and NBA.
