Techniques may include manual lymphatic drainage, manual traction, massage, mobilization/manipulation, and passive range of motion.[/cs_text][x_line style=”border-top-width: 1px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h3″ looks_like=”h3″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-left resp-h-timeline” style=”color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);margin: 1% 0 0;”]Deep-Tissue Release / Massage[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”5px”][cs_text]
Deep Tissue Release is a massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fiber’s of the muscles, tendons and fascia.

A gentle blend of stretching and massage, myofascial release therapy uses hands-on manipulation of the entire body to promote healing and relieve pain. Chiropractors use the technique to ease pressure in the fibrous bands of connective tissue, or fascia, that encase muscles throughout the body. The provider uses his or her hands to evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves. Abnormal tissues are treated by combining precisely directed tension with very specific patient movements.[/cs_text][x_button size=”global” block=”false” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/contact/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]Make Appointment[/x_button][x_gap size=”50px”][x_line style=”border-top-width: 1px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h3″ looks_like=”h3″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-left resp-h-timeline” style=”color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);margin: 1% 0 0;”]PNF[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”5px”][cs_text]PNF is an acronym for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. It is a technique of combining passive stretching and isometric stretching in order to achieve maximum static flexibility. PNF refers to any, of several, post-isometric relaxation stretching techniques in which a muscle group is passively stretched, then contracts isometrically against resistance while in the stretched position, and then is passively stretched again through the resulting increased range of motion.[/cs_text][x_button size=”global” block=”false” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/contact/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]Make Appointment[/x_button][x_gap size=”50px”][x_line style=”border-top-width: 1px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h3″ looks_like=”h3″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-left resp-h-timeline” style=”color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);margin: 1% 0 0;”]Extremity Adjusting[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”5px”][cs_text]
Extremity adjustment is used to correct joint fixations anywhere in the body other than the spine. This includes many troublesome areas, such as the jaw (TMJ), ribs, shoulders, wrist (carpal tunnel syndrome), elbows, hips, knees, ankles and the bones in the foot. When any joint is fixed, or does not move properly, it stretches the attached ligaments triggering sensory receptors to signal the brain. The result is pain in the affected joint. The brain sends a signal back to the adjacent muscles, reducing their strength in order to protect them. After manipulation of the extremity by a properly trained chiropractor, the stretched ligament goes back to its normal length, and the brain allows full strength to return to the adjacent muscles. Pain also decreases immediately. Sometimes lax or overstretched ligaments and tendons make a joint unstable and let it move too much. In this case, adjusting the joint alone is not enough to correct the problem. Strengthening exercises and perhaps taping must be used to permit the ligament to tighten and restore stability to the joint..[/cs_text][x_button size=”global” block=”false” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/contact/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]Make Appointment[/x_button][x_gap size=”50px”][x_line style=”border-top-width: 1px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h3″ looks_like=”h3″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-left resp-h-timeline” style=”color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);margin: 1% 0 0;”]Joint Mobilization[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”5px”][cs_text]Joint mobilization is a type of passive movement of a skeletal joint in a way that you cannot move yourself. The doctor initiates small movements between the actual bone surfaces to introduce movement to restricted joints. This can help increase range of motion and to align the articulating surfaces of a joint. When applied to the spine, it is known as spinal mobilization.[/cs_text][x_button size=”global” block=”false” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/contact/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]Make Appointment[/x_button][x_gap size=”50px”][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section bg_color=”hsl(0, 0%, 100%)” parallax=”true” class=”cs-ta-center” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 5% 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/2″ class=”cs-ta-left” style=”padding: 0px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h2″ looks_like=”h3″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-left”]In The News at WELCare Chiropractic[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”10px”][cs_text class=”cs-ta-left”]View the latest news and events from WELCare Chiropractic.[/cs_text][x_button size=”global” block=”false” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/blog/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]View More![/x_button][/cs_column][cs_column fade=”true” fade_animation=”in-from-right” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_recent_posts type=”post” count=”1″ offset=”” category=”” orientation=”horizontal” no_sticky=”true” no_image=”false” fade=”false”][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section bg_image=”https://plattsburghchiropractor.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/chiropractor-in-plattsburgh-ny_chiropractic-care-for-the-family.jpg” bg_color=”#f5f5f5″ parallax=”false” class=”cs-ta-center” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px 40px;border-style: solid;border-width: 5px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”true” fade_animation=”in-from-right” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h3″ looks_like=”h2″ accent=”false” class=”resp-h man”]Visit Us Today![/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”20px”][x_custom_headline level=”h4″ looks_like=”h4″ accent=”false” class=”cs-ta-center resp-g man”]308 West Bay Plaza Plattsburgh, NY 12901[/x_custom_headline][x_gap size=”30px”][x_google_map api_key=”AIzaSyAu21-EU4W8s6xeGI3i-jiyW0_HI0KnFq0″ lat=”44.7109617″ lng=”-73.4491384″ zoom=”12″ zoom_control=”true” drag=”false” height=”” hue=”#f8b114″ no_container=”false” ][x_google_map_marker lat=”44.7109617″ lng=”-73.4491384″ start_open=”false” info=”” image=””][/x_google_map][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]
