Soft Tissue & Muscle Therapy Services
Summit Spine and Therapy offers soft tissue and muscle therapy services, including therapeutic massage, which works hand-in-hand with chiropractic services.
There are multiple types of therapies we offer including:
Active myofascial release: a form of deep tissue manipulation in which specified techniques are used to release soft tissue adhesions while the patient is actively involved with the treatment.
Active instrument therapy: a manual therapy approach that sues instruments with a specialized form of massage/scraping the skin gently.
Positional release: Through positioning the body and tissue in positions of comfort, the neurological system can be manipulated to interrupt the pain spasm cycle and over time, to reset the resting length of tissue in a “normal” range, which promotes increase in strength, performance and function.
Cupping therapy: a form of alternative medicine that’s cups are placed on the skin to create suction. Cupping therapy uses the suction of the cups to mobilize blood flow to promote the healing of a broad range of medical ailments. This cupping method differs from what some may think of as “traditional” cupping.
Kiniseo taping: a method of applying Kinesio Tape in a specific manner to create change in the aforementioned systems.
