Storz Radial and Focused Shockwave therapy
It is a pain free procedure that uses radial pulse on the affected muscles or tendon. It produces inflammation in order for the body to start healing. The most common conditions that are treated with this are achilles tendonitis, bicep tendonitis, bursitis, myofascial pain, plantar fasciitis and calcific tendinosis.
Frequency specific microcurrent
It is a new system of treatment that uses microamperage current and the resonance effects of frequencies on tissues and conditions to modulate changes in symptoms and overall well being. It is a completely non-invasive and pain free procedure that is commonly used for disc problems, arthritis, inflammation, and muscle pain.
concussion management
When a patient or athlete suffers from a concussion, it is important to administer a treatment protocol to assist with a faster recovery. Treatment may include, but is not limited to neutraceuticals, muscle release therapy and traditional Chinese acupuncture.
INSTRUMENT ASSISTED SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION (IASTM)
It is an instrument designed to reduce fascial restrictions and scar tissue. This tool will result in decreased pain and improvement in the range of motion (ROM). It stimulates connective tissue remodelling through resorption of excessive fibrosis.
Litecure CLASS 4 lASER therapy
This treatment involves using photomodulation to enhance cells at a rapid rate. It speeds up healing at a faster rate while decreasing inflammation and swelling. This laser is currently used in the NHL, MLB and NBA. It can be used for fracture healing, tendonitis, bursitis, sprains/strains, disc herniation and much more.
Cupping therapy
The cups are placed on the body with suction. The treatment is approximately 10-15mins in order to stimulate blood flood and release any muscular restriction. This treatment is safe and painless.
Active release therapy
This therapy is a hands on approach that releases tension within a specific muscle. It is used to release adhesions, stiffness and muscular tension.
neurofunctional acupuncture
A neuroanatomical approach that stimulates the central nervous system and peripheral nerves. The needles are clipped with electricity in order to stimulate the nerve and muscles. It is commonly used for athletic performance and recovery.
Fascial Distortion Model (FDM)
FDM is a method of recognizing the source of pain or injury by the patient's description of their symptoms. Fascial distortions are resolved with a hands-on approach through deep pressure application.
Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT)
This machine is used to treat Degenerative joint diseases, Signs of wear and tear, e.g. arthrosis (knee, hip, hands, shoulder, elbow), herniated disc, spondylarthrosis, pain therapy (Chronic) pain, e.g. back pain, lumbalgia, tension, radiculopathies, heel pain; Sport injuries
(Chronic) inflammation of tendons and joints, tendon overload syndrome, osteitis pubis and fractures.
Rehab Exercises
As part of the recovery process or injury prevention component, it is imperative to assign exercises that involve stretches, strengthening exercises, movement re-education, balance/proprioceptive training and sport-specific exercises.
Spinal Manipulations
It is a high velocity, low amplitude thrust applied to the joint. A cavitation or a “pop” may occur when the thrust is applied. It is a safe and comfortable treatment. It can assist with mobility and pain.
Joint mobilizations
A manual therapy involving passive movement that is performed to move a joint. It is a completely gentle approach to help relieve pain and assist with joint mobility.
Sports Science and Performance
This program of care is designed for the athlete that is looking to enhance their sport specific performance due to feeling sluggish, stiff, tight, lacking strength and wanting to feel lighter. If you are looking to get an edge, this is the perfect system for you. Each program is unique and different for each athlete.
Dr. Mirian will take a thorough evaluation of your biomechanics and tailor a specific regimen for you. This includes a neurofunctional assessment followed by a treatment that is tailored to enhance your performance. The neurofunctional assessment evaluates range of motion, proprioception/balance, muscle recruitment, specific sport movements and joint mobility. The types of treatments used are cutting edge techniques such as fascial distortion model, spinal manipulations, micro-conditioning, neurofunctional acupuncture, active release and osteopathic techniques. Part of this program is also to provide specific exercises that will address neuro-muscular function and more recruitment of your central nervous system. Sports nutrition is another aspect that receives attention in your care. The end result is to ensure injury prevention, career longevity, increase movement precision and maximize your sport specific performance.
