Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is a perfect complement to chiropractic care. While chiropractic focuses on the skeletal and nervous system, physical therapy strengthens muscles and ensures they work efficiently, enabling patients to experience better, longer-lasting results from their adjustments.
At Physiovation, Omni's physical therapy office,
treatment sessions involve much more than supervised
exercise. Therapists incorporate the latest hands-on
techniques, specializing in a procedure called
manual muscle stimulation. This approach enhances
the communication between the brain and the muscles,
resulting in increased strength, range of motion
and muscle balance. Muscle balance around a joint
is vital for maintaining proper function and alignment.
Weak or inactive muscles can lead to undue stress
on our bodies. Manual muscle stimulation activates
muscles that are not contracting effectively,
restoring them to proper function.
Traditionally, weak muscles are simply exercised
in an effort to gain strength. This approach,
however, often produces slow, if not futile results.
To put it simply, a muscle cannot be strengthened
effectively until it is working efficiently. Manual
muscle stimulation achieves strength gains by
simply improving the neural activity of the muscles.
