Rehabilitation Manual Therapy
Rehabilitation Manual Therapy
Orthopedic, Sports, Neuromuscular, Manual Therapy - all of these are medically focused hands-on therapies that amount to the same intention: the patient has a soft tissue (muscle/tendon/ligament/connective tissue) injury, and it is my intention to assist in healing it. Manual therapy is an advanced, focused soft tissue manual manipulation of tight, adhesions in the musculoskeletal tissues.
My style is eclectic. If you do not want acupuncture, fine I will NOT do acupuncture. But my acupuncture style is Japanese, It will not hurt. It is not Chinese, which usually hurts in order to "wake up the body" - no thank you. A session with me includes soft tissue manipulation, American trigger point acupuncture, manual acupuncture with Japanese needles, electro-acupuncture with Chinese needles, air cupping with infra-red heat, my table is equipped with far-infrared light: Biomat I can add therapeutic ultrasound, and Vietnamese guas'ha if needed, a rubbing technique to release stagnation in the muscles.

Deep tissue rehabilitation manual therapy, sports therapy, myofascial therapy
As an acupuncturist, I use rehabilitation manual therapy as a supplemental technique to acupuncture (rather than Tui Na), trigger point acupuncture and electro-acupuncture. Rehabilitation manual therapy as a stand alone technique treats muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, pain, inflammation, soreness, tight muscles - for marathon runners, athletes, dance injuries, sports injuries and computer pain syndrome: neck pain, and upper to lower back pain and anterior hip flexor (psoas) tightness and pain from sitting long hours, gluteal pain, (knee) patellar tendonitis pain and ITB tightness, and ankle sprains level 1-2.
Also, treated as stated above, are ilio-tibial band/patellar tracking pain (knee pain), calf pain, achilles tendonitis, ankle sprain level 1 and 2, "frozen shoulder" adhesive capsulitis, referred pain into your shoulder, rotator cuff injuries, "golfer's" elbow forearm extensor and "tennis" elbow forearm flexor, migraines and headaches, TMJD - jaw (masseter muscle) tightness (with intraorbital manipulation), foot pain (neuroma) under the second and third toes, bone fracture pain, and plantar "fascitis or fibramatosis" pain of the heel. Note: plantar fasciosis is a disorder where the fascia is repeatedly stressed rather than inflamed. Other terms used to describe plantar fasciosis include calcaneal enthesopathy and calcaneal spur syndrome (heel spur).
Impinged nerve root in the neck I use acupuncture, electroacupuncture and therapeutic ultrasound.
