Specialization in Auto Accidents & Trauma

Studies have shown that a 10 miles per hour “fender bender” can inflict up to 17 g forces on the spine. This trauma can cause havoc with the spine, neck, shoulders, ligaments, muscles and the nervous system. Chiropractic has long been the care of choice for trauma, especially auto accidents. Most people do not, however, realize that almost three-fourths of injuries are caused by repetitive stressors to the body such as working at a computer for long hours, repetitive lifting, bending, twisting, standing or sitting for extended periods without a break. These types of stresses occurring at work or at home also cause significant structural problems which lead to major health concerns. It is imperative that any person who suffers any acute or chronic injury be seen by a chiropractor to check for nerve interference and/or spinal damage so they can continue to live happy, healthful, productive lives.

Chiropractic for Children

Chiropractic is most beneficial for children because their nervous systems are just developing. When subluxations are removed at an early stage of life, it allows the nervous system to function at a much higher level and enables the child to fight off disease on their own without the use of excessive pharmaceutical drugs. Chiropractic care for children is growing rapidly as more and more pediatricians are beginning to recommend chiropractic for many ailments such as ear infections, reflux, enuresis (bed wetting), mood disorders, chronic illness, and many more conditions. It has been noted that when a child receives care from early on in life his or her incidence of disease is much less common and much less severe.

Cold Laser Therapy

At Holt Chiropractic & Massage, cold laser therapy is one more powerful tool that is available for your integrated care plan. The clinical benefits of laser energy were discovered in 1967. Since the late 1970s laser treatment for pain has been widely used in Europe and Asia. Now, since its FDA approval in 2001, cold laser therapy is quickly gaining popularity in the United States. Recent research studies for soft tissue injuries (muscle, ligament and joint) show that patients who received cold laser therapy in addition to their other treatment demonstrated a 40–50% faster rate of repair and greater strength of the injured tissues when treatment was completed. The evidence is compelling. Cold Laser therapy is a safe and effective modality that is proving to play an important role in rehabilitative health care.

Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy has gained popularity because of its effectiveness in treating pain and restoring mobility without the use of drugs. Massage Therapy is beneficial for a wide range of problems from whiplash to occupational over-use conditions. Our massage team uses a variety of techniques to soothe tight muscles and melt away painful muscle knots. This speeds recovery by reducing adhesions and scar tissue formation in muscles, which are often linked to postural problems and can limit normal movement and cause pain. As part of an integrated care team, the massage therapists have access to the other providers’ findings, allowing them to apply more effective treatment. Our therapists create individualized patient care, working where you need it, with techniques that are the most effective for you.
