The Diversified Technique is a more traditional, hands-on approach to spinal manipulation that utilizes a high velocity, low amplitude (HVLA) thrust into the spine or extremities.

The activator method used in spinal adjustment can be described as follows: It is a hand-held, spring-loaded instrument that provides low force-impulses to targeted areas. The instrument induces rapid pulses that create a reflexive muscle reaction that causes relaxation and neural desensitization.

IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) is a technique used to break down scar tissue and fascial adhesions in soft tissue. These can form from overuse, chronic muscle tension, poor circulation, postural strain or old injury.

Corrective Exercise is a technique that leverages an understanding of anatomy, kinesiology, and biomechanics to address and fix movement compensations and imbalances to improve the overall quality of movement during workouts and in everyday life.

Part of an effective treatment involves identifying muscles that are overworking, weak or tight, and providing lengthening or neural input techniques to create a temporary change which allows underworking muscles to activate and create even tension around the joint(s).

 At Sound Sport & Spine, we incorporate soft tissue therapy into our chiropractic care to help relieve muscle tension, improve mobility, and enhance overall recovery. Soft tissue techniques focus on reducing pain, breaking up adhesions (knots), and improving blood flow to affected areas, allowing your body to heal more effectively.
