Offered Services In Downtown Dallas TX

1. Spinal and Extremity Adjustments: Dr. Fowler identifies and corrects subluxations (misalignments) in the spine and extremities using a High Velocity Low Amplitude (HVLA) thrust for effective and comfortable results.
2. Proprioceptive Neurological Facilitation (PNF) Stretching: This one-on-one therapy targets specific muscle groups. The muscle is stretched to its maximum length, followed by resistance pushing, which significantly increases muscle length compared to static stretching. At Expressions Chiropractic, we focus on stretching the neck and legs.
3. Spinal Decompression: This non-surgical procedure relieves lower back, neck, and sciatica pain, addressing bulging, herniated, or degenerative disc disease. The therapy involves gentle cycles of stretch and relaxation to decompress the spine, improve blood flow, and nutrient exchange. Treatment typically lasts less than 20 minutes, three times a week for a month, with most patients experiencing relief in 6-10 treatments.
4. Electric Muscle Stimulation: This therapy helps in the healing process by sending small electrical currents to affected soft tissue injuries or muscle spasms, reducing swelling, releasing trigger points, and promoting the release of endorphins to alleviate pain.
5. Ultrasound Therapy: Used for joint injuries, muscle spasms, and soft tissue issues, this therapy employs sound waves to vibrate and massage tissues, reducing scar tissue formation and promoting healing at the cellular level.
6. Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM): This therapy uses specially designed tools to detect and treat soft tissue dysfunctions, such as fascial restrictions and chronic inflammation.
7. Functional Taping: This specialized taping method supports joints and muscles, alleviates pain, and increases lymph drainage and blood flow. Unlike traditional taping, it does not compress underlying structures and is effective in treating various conditions.
8. Myofascial Release (MFR): This hands-on technique applies gentle, sustained pressure to myofascial connective tissue restrictions, eliminating pain and restoring motion.
9. Digital X-rays: On-site digital X-rays ensure accurate diagnoses, with Dr. Fowler trained to take and interpret radiographs.
10. Heat/Ice Therapy: Heat therapy draws blood to chronic pain and arthritis areas, while ice therapy reduces blood flow to inflamed or swollen areas.
