CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Dr. Murphy utilizes full spine, manual spinal manipulation techniques considered as diversified, traditional Chiropractic techniques.

Low-Level Laser Therapy with MedX Phototherapy System

The MedX produces laser produces infrared light at the 735nm wavelength and also produces infrared light at the 870 nm wavelength and visible red light in the 660 nm wavelength via superluminous diodes. Applied to injured tissues to accelerate tissue repair and reduce pain intensity. HOW IT WORKS Infrared and near infrared light stimulate the body. When light receptive chromophores within the tissues of the body are irradiated with infrared coherent laser light, they are stimulated to more active levels of function and increased interaction. Therapeutic dosages of infrared light activate increased mitochondrial ATP synthesis, produce increased mast cell inflammatory mitigation, increase oxidative metabolism, stimulate increased endorphin release and increased prostaglandin synthesis. Due to the powerful effect photo-stimulated enzymes exert, both localized and systemic cascade reactions occur that result in enhanced immunomodulation and inflammatory mitigation. Vascular and lymphatic vessel proliferation is enhanced, and enzymatic activity and cellular metabolism are increased as a result of the light stimulation. Damaged bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels and neurological tissues react with enhanced healing in the presence of low-level laser irradiation, speeding recovery and providing pain relief. Collagen synthesis is enhanced, creating the material for your body to repair damaged tissues. Through the action of photo-stimulation of chromophores (light reactive biological receptors in the body), LLLT has demonstrated the ability to significantly accelerate and enhance the body’s natural defense and repair components in the presence of injury, inflammation, and certain disease processes. By enhancing repair and healing processes, LLLT provides pain relief, reduces damage, minimizes loss of function, and facilitates more rapid repair and stronger healed tissue structures.

PROTEC FLOATING MANIPULATIVE THERAPY

The Protec System enables spinal manipulation while the load on the spine has been reduced. Spinal traction of the cervical spine or the lumbar spine is produced by the patient's own weight.

DRY HYDROTHERAPY

Utilizing jets of water in a sealed water mattress, pressure, vibration and heat provide therapeutic relief to back pain.
