Physiotherapy Exercises
To complement and enhance the healing effects of Dr. Morse’s specific Chiropractic adjustment treatment, we at NYC Corrective Chiropractic Care also provide the following physiological therapeutic procedures:
Therapeutic Ultrasound
Therapeutic ultrasound is applied using a round-headed wand that is put in direct contact with the patient’s skin. Gentle ultrasound waves penetrate the tissue beneath the skin to help decrease swelling and increase healing for a variety of ailments and injuries including ligament sprain, muscle strains, tendonitis, joint inflammation, plantar fasciitis, rheumatoid arthritis and more.
Interferential Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Electrical muscle stimulation provides a safe and effective therapy to provide pain relief and accelerate the self healing process with our patients. Our electrical muscle stimulation machine produces electrical currents that pass through the affected area of the patient in order to increase blood flow in order to stimulate nerve cells and reduce swelling. The procedure is non-invasive and provides no discomfort.
Microamperage Neural Stimulation
Our microamperage neural stimulation machine produces weak signals that are sent into the body to apply electrical currents to the nerves in order to alleviate pain, wound healing, repair tendons, help with plantar fasciitis and ruptured ligament recovery.
Mechanical Traction
Mechanical traction assists in treating herniated discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, pinched nerves and much more.
Moist Heat Therapy
Moist heat therapy increases circulation to aching muscles in order to provide for relief from pain. Many patients find that moist heat therapy provides hydration to muscles whereas dry heat therapy will dehydrate the muscles and result in being counteractive to the healing process.
Rehabilitation Programs
Dr. Morse aids in providing her patients with customized exercise programs designed to strengthen specific muscle groups and aid in the recovery of injuries and ailments. Additional programs are provided to patients that they can complete in the comfort of their own home or office.
Muscle, Tendon and Ligament Stimulator
