We specialize in treatment of the whole person with emphasis on the primary complaint. We complete a thorough consultation and then perform an evaluation that includes a postural analysis, neurologic/orthopaedic testing, as well as balance and strength testing. Based on our diagnosis, we recommend the most effective treatment plan which may include the Myokinesthetic System approach, gentle chiropractic adjustments, massage, a customized targeted exercise routine, nutritional management and physiotherapy. Sure, man-made solutions to pain can help some people feel better. But it's pretty hard to argue with pain-relief methods that rely on natural sources. We work closely with your medical professional to reduce or eliminate the medication you are taking. Our focus is just simple, effective methods of pain relief that even Mother Nature could call her own. Further, Dr. DeSalvo has the expertise to relieve pain naturally and effectively using state of the art methods such as the Bales Photon Stimulator. The depth of his knowledge enables him to successfully treat a wide variety of problems. DISC HERNIATIONS: Bending and lifting the wrong way can land you flat on your back. Dr. DeSalvo can use The Myokinesthetic System and the DRX9000 Spinal Decompression System to significantly reduce the effects of lumbar and cervical disc herniations. This approach re-patterns the nervous system to return to normal function after injury. It will relax the muscles and realign the bones, to relieve the pressure on the nerves and get the pain out of your back. EXTREMITY PAIN AND NUMBNESS: Numbness, tingling, and pain in the arms, shoulders, hands from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, legs, and feet can happen if there is interference from the nerves in the spine or within the extremity itself. The Myokinesthetic System and the LCD Spinal Care System is the primary method used to relieve neuropathy. NECK PAIN, UPPER AND LOWER BACK PAIN: Poor posture, work habits, trauma, and torticollis (shortened neck muscles) can cause mild to severe neck pain; the result is often headaches, numbness, and an inability to live your daily life in comfort. Dr. DeSalvo can help unblock the flow of nerve energy, to relieve pain. HEADACHES: When the arteries and nerves that cover the head are stretched, compressed, or irritated, headaches usually result. Dr. DeSalvo's natural chiropractic method can release the compression or irritation that causes headaches. SPORTS INJURIES: Many sports injuries can restrict range of motion, reduce strength, shorten endurance, slow reflexes, and decrease performance. Dr. DeSalvo's experience in with the Myokinesthetic System, physiotherapy and chiropractic can give you double the therapy, to pinpoint the injury and customize a plan for recovery. AUTO INJURIES: The energy of a moving car is transferred to the neck. This "hyperflexion" and "hyperextension" can lead to neck strain and whiplash. Blurred vision, migraines, nausea, dizziness, and a tingling or numbness in the arms and hands can result. Early mobilization of the joints in the neck can limit scar tissue buildup and help you recover from whiplash more quickly and with fewer symptoms. PERSONAL INJURIES: Accidents can result in painful soft-tissue injuries. Muscles and ligaments are stretched, torn, or bruised, causing headaches, restricted movement, and pain. Dr. DeSalvo can help return bones, muscles, and ligaments to their normal position with chiropractic, allowing the body to help heal itself. And Dr. DeSalvo will provide timely, well-documented narrative for your outside specialists and insurance carriers. WORKERS' COMP.: Acute injuries such as neck or back, and other repetitive-stress injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome, can compress the nerves and create painful scar tissue. Dr. DeSalvo can help eliminate the need for cortisone therapy and surgery with the Myokinesthetic System, therapeutic ultrasound, electric muscle stimulation, and gentle chiropractic adjustments. He can also conduct Qualified Medical Evaluations for industrial injuries. Back to the top |
