While Chiropractic adjusting methods are a powerful method of decreasing pain and restoring joint motion and movement patterns, in many cases soft tissue therapy, stretching and other methods are just as important, particularly with more chronic conditions.
Acute and chronic conditions often lead to the development of trigger points and myofascial adhesions in muscles and fascial connective tissue.
Dr. Zimmerman employs many methods to facilitate the release of these trigger points and adhesions including:
-
PNF techniques (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation)
-
Trigger point therapy
-
Myofascial release techniques
-
Acupressure
-
Tuina
-
Cupping
