Dr. Pagnani practices diversified adjusting. Diversified is characterized by a high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust delivered by her hands. The objective is to restore proper movement and alignment of spine and joint dysfunction.

The Activator is a small handheld spring-loaded instrument which delivers a small impulse to the spine as an alternative to manual manipulation of the spine or extremity joints.

Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and improve function. This is done by inserting sterilized, stainless-steel needles into specific points located near or on the surface of the skin which have the ability to alter various biochemical and physiological conditions in order to treat a wide variety of illnesses.

History of acupuncture: The ancient Chinese found energy channels that they call meridians that run throughout the body. They found that there were 360 points on the body throughout these meridians. By targeting certain points, Qi (energy) is altered. By altering the flow of Qi helps to treat different conditions. Medically, the needles that are inserted in the skin help to stimulate blood flow. Blood has healing elements that help to break up scar tissue and decrease inflammation which intern helps to decreases pain and symptoms.

Acupuncture can help musculoskeletal conditions including neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, headaches, muscle aches and spasms, pain management, sprains and strains and a variety of other conditions.

Massage is the working of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue using various techniques to enhance function, aid in the healing process, and promote relaxation and well-being.

Not only do our massage therapists do Myofacial Release which is better know as Deep Tissue Massage/Medical Massage, they also perform a wide range of massage inducing Swedish, Hot Stone, Lymphatic Drainage, Prenatal & Sports Massage.

Myofascial Release: Fascia is a thin tissue that covers all the organs of the body. This tissue covers every muscle and every fiber within each muscle. All muscle stretching, then, is actually stretching of the fascia and the muscle, the myofascial unit. When muscle fibers are injured, the fibers and the fascia which surrounds it become short and tight. This uneven stress can be transmitted through the fascia to other parts of the body, causing pain and a variety of other symptoms in areas you often wouldn’t expect. Myofascial Release treats these symptoms by releasing the uneven tightness in injured fascia.

Our Erchonia red and violet cold low-level laser therapy has been proven to treat pain and inflammation without the harmful side effects associated with traditional treatment options. The combination of lasers also offers unique anti-bacterial and anti microbial properties which can encourage established sinus relief, ear and other infection treatments.

Red light therapy uses photobiomodulation, which is a low-level laser therapy that delivers red and near-infrared light to areas of your body. In doing this, it helps regenerate (or grow back) cells, restore cell function and trigger blood flow. In turn, this helps to heal and relieve pain.

The Kinesio Taping Method is designed to facilitate the body’s natural healing process while allowing support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body’s range of motion. It is used to successfully treat a variety of orthopedic, neuromuscular, neurological and medical conditions. Both Kinesio® Tape and the training protocol have shown results that would have been unheard of using older methods and materials.
