Elite Health & Wellness P.C. offers a variety of services. Here is an overview of each:
Chiropractic Care
Doctors of chiropractic are trained in low force manual techniques, but can also use alternative methods as well, depending on the patient’s condition and preference. The first visit will consist of a complete and detailed health history. This will allow us to get to know you better as a whole. This will be followed by a physical examination which includes chiropractic, orthopedic, and neurological examinations. After reviewing your health history and examination findings, the doctor will explain the findings to you and recommend a treatment plan. In addition to chiropractic manipulation, recommendations for other therapies such as heat, ice, ultrasound, electrical stimulation etc. may be given. A treatment plan may also include nutritional advice, exercise and suggestions on how you can help yourself by modifying your daily activities.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine. It has been around for thousands of years and was first discovered and used in China. The science behind Acupuncture lies in the healing art of energy that flows throughout the body. The Chinese believe that individuals house energy that travels along channels throughout the body, and if those channels are interrupted, the body is not able to function properly. By using Acupuncture, we are able to reset these channels and allow the energy to flow properly. Following a thorough history and determining what the problem is, a treatment plan will be specifically tailored to the patient. The patient is then treated using specific points along the channels that are interrupted using tiny, sterile, disposable needles. Patients seek acupuncture for various conditions including neck pain, low back pain, headaches, shoulder pain, knee pain, ankle pain, infertility, menopause, stress, fibromyalgia, stop smoking and much more!
Physiotherapy
Adjunctive procedures such as ultrasound, cold laser, Kinesio Taping, muscle work and electrical stimulation are a complement to the chiropractic adjustment. These help in reducing irritation, pain, and muscle spasm, as well as aiding in general relaxation.
Nutritional Assessment
Nutritional counseling and nutritional support is available for our patients. As many symptoms and conditions are partially or completely due to nutritional needs, offering nutritional support is a natural extension of the care available through our clinic.
Corrective Exercises
Rehabilitation in conjunction with the patient’s treatment plan of scheduled adjustments and therapy is imperative in bringing the patient to a complete state of recovery for their injuries and/or problem areas. Exercise and rehabilitation instruction aids in focusing on restoring health to the whole person.
