These newer correction methods are safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Handy has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.

PEMF: Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field therapy can improve circulation, oxygenation and muscle strength. As a supportive energy source restoring damaged cellular structures and cell performance, Dr. Handy has found PEMF therapy beneficial to decreasing pain, reduce inflammation, and speed tissue healing.
-
Strapping: Also called "Taping" it is used in the rehabilitation of injuries and in muscle weaknesses. Dr. Handy has found excellent results with this technique and primarily uses it for neuromuscular reeducation.

Kinesio Taping: This highly specialized tape creates a pulling force on the skin or muscle, which may produce a correcting of the alignment of weak muscles and facilitate joint motion. Additionally, the tape is claimed to increase blood flow and lymphatic flow (swelling). This in turn is said to relieve pain and enhance recovery from injury.

Bracing: In contrast to a cast, a brace allows for movement, but with specific support, often protecting ligaments that need to heal. Bracing is traditionally used as an adjunct to rehabilitation for wrists, knees, spine, ankles and elbows.
