At Nesnick Family and Sports Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Woodstock office.
Chiropractic Care
We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Michal Nesnick has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment techniques.
Extremity Care/Sports Injuries
We provide specific recommendations and care for injuries to the shoulder, ankle, knee, elbow and wrist as well as other extremity conditions. We access and determine the most appropriate and safest care to reduce pain, increase joint range of motion and enhance athletic performance due to injury, overuse or arthritic changes. Dr. Michal Nesnick can provide a structured program based on your individual needs.
Orthotics/Arch Support Sandals
The joints in your body that bear weight (ankles, knees, hips, pelvis, low back, neck) are like links in a chain. If your feet aren’t balanced, every joint (and the connecting muscles, tendons, and ligaments) above may become injured over time due to unnatural twists and strains on your body. Pain may occur because of these postural imbalances. Your postural condition is as unique to you as your fingerprint. Dr. Michal Nesnick can provide you with a detailed scan and recomendations for your individual needs. Orthotics are available for every type of shoeware and activity level.
Cold Laser Therapy
Are Cold Lasers Safe?
Yes. Laser diodes are used in every-day applications such as grocery store bar code checkouts, CD players, laser printers and laser pointers. The FDA has listed bio-stimulation lasers as non-significant risk (NSR) devices.
How do Cold Lasers work?
Pain results from a combination of trauma and/or cellular disruption, malfunction, or less than optimal cellular function. Pain is relieved and healing occurs when cellular functions are normialized. Photons emitted by Cold Lasers stimulate cells to initiate bio-chemical reactions ( DNA/RNA replication). This produces enzymes and usable energy that enables cells to perform optimally.
Where can Cold Laser Therapy be applied?
Cold Laser Therpay may be applied wherever there is acute or chronic pain or inflammation. Because Cold Lasers work at the cellular levels, users have reported success using Cold Laser Therpay for pian associated with arthitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, whiplash, headaches, back and shoulder pain, TMD/TMJ, burns, cuts, sprains, colds- and much more.
Massage Therapy
Beyond the feel-good effects of massage, a growing body of evidence-based research continually supports the health benefits of bodywork. While the pampering sensation often produced by massage is relevant to emotional wellness and certainly no small detail, scientific studies point to physiological changes, produced by bodywork, that can ultimately have profound effects on physical health. And this holds true for all age groups, from infants to seniors.
Massage is one of the oldest healing arts: Chinese records dating back 3,000 years document its use; the ancient Hindus, Persians and Egyptians applied forms of massage for many ailments; and Hippocrates wrote papers recommending the use of rubbing and friction for joint and circulatory problems. Today, the benefits of massage are varied and far-reaching. As an accepted part of many physical rehabilitation programs, massage therapy has also proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, bursitis, fatigue, high blood pressure, diabetes, immunity suppression, infertility, smoking cessation, depression, and more. And, as many millions will attest, massage also helps relieve the stress and tension of everyday living that can lead to disease and illness.
So What Is It Exactly?
Massage, bodywork and somatic therapies are defined as the application of various techniques to the muscular structure and soft tissues of the human body. Specifically:
Massage: The application of soft-tissue manipulation techniques to the body, generally intended to reduce stress and fatigue while improving circulation. The many variations of massage account for several different techniques.
Bodywork: Various forms of touch therapies that may use manipulation, movement, and/or repatterning to affect structural changes to the body.
Somatic: Meaning “of the body.” Many times this term is used to denote a body/mind or whole-body approach as distinguished from a physiology-only or environmental perspective.
Will My Insurance Cover It?
The services of a Licensed Massage Therapist may be covered by health insurance when prescribed by a chiropractor. Therapies provided as part of a prescribed treatment by a doctor are often covered if deemed a neccesary therapy for relief care.
