Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a natural approach to health care, using ‘hands-on’ methods to achieve results. Chiropractic is based upon the belief that the body was born with the ability to heal itself. The reason why you may be suffering from some ailment, yet your neighbour is not (although he/she is exposed to the same environment), is because disease is a result of interference in, or suppression of, this natural healing ability.
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy - Penticton only
Laser therapy is a non-invasive technique to help reduce pain and inflammation. Laser therapy can be safely used as an adjunct or replacement for pharmaceutical drugs. This pain relief treatment is FDA cleared and enables patients to have an alternative to drugs and surgery.
Laser therapy treatments last between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the condition being treated. Patients generally see results after 3 to 5 treatments. Your doctor will develop a treatment plan that is optimal for your condition.

Trigenics
Trigenics is a revolutionary neuromuscular treatment system that has been proven remarkably effective for treating the aches and pains that result from physical injury, as well as for correcting the energy imbalances that can leave you feeling sluggish, fatigued or depressed.
The approach to Trigenics is quite simple: using an established diagnostic protocol (primarily an advanced muscle-testing technique), the therapist is able to locate areas of neuromuscular weaknesses or imbalance in the body.

CranioSacral Therapy - Penticton only
Cranial adjusting, just like chiropractic spinal manipulation, primarily facilitates processes that enhance the body’s innate abilities for natural healing. Cranial therapy focuses on removing restrictive forces and obstacles related to the craniosacral system. Enhancing the mobility of the craniosacral system improves the circulation of both blood and CSF to the brain, spinal cord, pituitary gland, pineal gland and the cranial nerve systems, among other things.
Osteopathy - including CranioSacral Therapy - Penticton only
Osteopathy was founded in 1874 by a physician named Andrew Taylor Still. After three of his children died from spinal meningitis, he formed the belief that prevention is better than cure. This led him to focus on the motion of circulatory fluid through out the body and how mechanical blockages from the musculoskeletal system, nerves and organs can create blockages resulting in illness and disease.
Although western medicine has significantly improved since Still's time, Osteopathic Manual Practitioners today share the philosophy that maintaining a healthy body, mind and spirit will help to prevent illness and disease.
