Nerve Release Therapy: utilizing gentle manipulation, traction and manual therapy, our chiropractors will gradually reduce the pressure on your nerves to allow them to heal and begin functioning normally.
Ankle Nerve Blocks: our medical doctors will identify those specific nerves that are malfunctioning by either over-firing or under-firing (or both). Then, utilizing a series of ankle injections, these nerves will be gradually de-sensitized. This allows the connections at the nerve endings to be re-set, much like what occurs when you reboot your computer when it no longer runs the way it's supposed to.
Electrotherapy: following each nerve block session, a special form of electrotherapy will be administered to stimulate further nerve healing by gently pulsating the affected nerves. This is usually continued at home with daily 30-minute sessions.
Exercise: as your pain and other symptoms decrease, you will be able to resume most of your normal daily activities. At that time, you will begin simple exercises to further assist in the healing process.
