Our Clinical Treatment Approaches
1. Functional Movement Restoration
Our certified rehabilitation specialists utilize movement analysis and functional capacity evaluation to design progressive exercise protocols targeting:
- Joint position sense restoration: Rebuilding spatial awareness after ligamentous injury
- Neuromuscular re-education: Correcting compensatory movement patterns that perpetuate pain
- Therapeutic strengthening: Systematic strength development to restore pre-injury strength levels
- Gait analysis and correction: Optimizing stride mechanics contributing to leg and foot problems
Clinical outcome: The majority of cases exhibit documented progress in movement capacity within 4-6 weeks (based on Oswestry Disability Index scores).
2. Myofascial Release and Manual Therapy
Certified manual therapy practitioners perform precision hands-on treatment to address:
- Pain knot elimination: Addressing pain spread from tissue restrictions
- Tissue glide restoration: Enhancing fascial mobility and decreasing secondary stress
- Lymphatic drainage: Speeding swelling reduction following injury
- Scar tissue remodeling: Maintaining tissue pliability after acute injury
Treatment frequency: Early treatment involves frequent visits, transitioning to maintenance care as recovery advances.
3. Spinal Adjustment Therapy
Our doctors of chiropractic utilize diversified technique, drop-table adjustments, and tool-based adjustments to restore:
- Segmental arrangement: Restoring proper vertebral position causing neural compression
- Spinal segment mobility: Improving joint motion in fixated segments
- Biomechanical equilibrium: Treating shoulder protraction and structural imbalances
- Disc health: Promoting nutrient exchange and reducing mechanical disc stress
Safety profile: All patients undergo orthopedic and neurological screening to ensure optimal care selection.
4. Complementary Therapeutic Interventions
- Deep tissue ultrasound therapy: Targeted thermal therapy to enhance tissue flexibility and accelerate tendon healing
- E-stim therapy: Decreasing involuntary contraction and enhancing blood flow
- Cold therapy application: Reducing tissue irritation while reducing pain medication needs
- Kinesiology taping: Providing proprioceptive feedback and facilitating healing during functional activities
- Thermotherapy: Enhancing circulation before therapeutic exercise

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to be seen?
Not necessary. Florida allows direct access to these conservative care services without physician referral. However, if you're submitting claims, confirm your policy terms.
How soon after an accident should I seek treatment?
Schedule as soon as possible. Postponing care risks long-term complications. PIP benefits require two-week treatment initiation of an auto accident to retain no-fault protection.
Will I need diagnostic imaging?
Advanced testing follows specific protocols based on examination findings, mechanism of injury, or treatment plateau. We maintain referral relationships with local imaging centers for rapid appointment access.
How many sessions will I need?
Fresh injuries often demand 1.5 to 3 months of therapeutic intervention. Complex cases involving disc herniation or multi-level involvement may require three to four months. Chronic pain conditions require longer treatment duration due to altered pain perception patterns.
How do I switch clinics mid-treatment?
We facilitate provider changes and will obtain prior treatment documentation to ensure treatment continuity.
