Our Clinical Treatment Approaches
1. Therapeutic Exercise Programs
Our movement therapy experts utilize functional capacity evaluation and functional capacity evaluation to design progressive exercise protocols targeting:
- Joint position sense restoration: Recovering kinesthetic feedback after joint trauma
- Neuromuscular re-education: Correcting compensatory movement patterns that perpetuate pain
- Functional strength building: Progressive resistance training to restore pre-injury strength levels
- Walking pattern assessment: Correcting movement faults contributing to movement-related discomfort
Clinical outcome: Most patients show significant functional gains in movement capacity within 4-6 weeks (based on Oswestry Disability Index scores).
2. Myofascial Release and Manual Therapy
Licensed therapeutic bodywork specialists perform targeted soft tissue mobilization to address:
- Myofascial trigger point release: Reducing referred pain patterns from myofascial adhesions
- Connective tissue mobilization: Enhancing fascial mobility and minimizing protective tension
- Fluid mobilization: Accelerating post-traumatic edema resolution after trauma
- Fibrotic tissue mobilization: Maintaining tissue pliability after initial damage
Treatment frequency: Beginning stages need regular appointments, progressing to less frequent sessions as tissue healing progresses.
3. Spinal Adjustment Therapy
Our chiropractic physicians utilize manual adjustment methods, table-facilitated therapy, and instrument-assisted manipulation to restore:
- Spinal positioning: Correcting subluxation patterns causing nerve root irritation
- Intervertebral motion: Restoring segmental mobility in hypomobile spinal regions
- Postural balance: Addressing forward head posture and alignment deficiencies
- Disc health: Promoting nutrient exchange and minimizing compressive forces
Safety profile: Comprehensive examination precedes treatment to ensure treatment safety.
4. Complementary Therapeutic Interventions
- Acoustic wave treatment: Deep tissue heating to improve elastic properties and promote soft tissue repair
- Neuromuscular electrical stimulation: Relieving protective tension and enhancing blood flow
- Ice treatment regimens: Reducing tissue irritation while limiting pharmaceutical reliance
- Elastic therapeutic tape application: Providing proprioceptive feedback and supporting injured tissues during functional activities
- Thermotherapy: Enhancing circulation before therapeutic exercise

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to be seen?
No. Florida allows direct access to these conservative care services without medical prescription. However, if you're using insurance, confirm your policy terms.
How soon after an accident should I seek treatment?
Schedule as soon as possible. Delayed treatment can allow acute inflammation to progress to chronic pain patterns. PIP benefits require two-week treatment initiation of an auto accident to retain no-fault protection.
Will I need X-rays or MRI?
We request scans based on examination findings based on physical evaluation data, mechanism of injury, or treatment plateau. We maintain professional connections with regional radiology providers for rapid appointment access.
How many sessions will I need?
Recent trauma usually needs two to three months of therapeutic intervention. Complex cases involving disc herniation or multi-level involvement may require 12-16 weeks. Chronic pain conditions require longer treatment duration due to nervous system adaptations.
Can I transfer from another provider?
We accept mid-treatment transitions and will obtain prior treatment documentation to ensure seamless care progression.
