Car Accidents
Car Accidents can change your whole life in a matter of seconds. What do you do next?
We Can Help.
Experiencing a car accident can be a traumatic event, both physically and emotionally. Following an accident, it's common to experience a range of symptoms, from acute pain and stiffness to longer-term issues such as headaches or limited mobility. Proper therapy is critical to recovery, and chiropractic care can play a significant role in helping you regain your health.
At Active Motion Chiropractic, we focus on understanding your unique situation and developing a tailored treatment plan that addresses your specific needs. Chiropractic therapy aids in the realignment of the spine and musculoskeletal system, which can be compromised during a collision. Proper spinal and extremity joint alignment facilitates nerve function and our body’s innate ability to heal itself. We also treat the soft tissue injuries in accidents; the whiplash, sprain/strain, rotator cuff tears, concussions, headaches, inability to concentrate, fatigue, stiffness and muscle aches. Through various techniques, including Active Release Technique, we relieve pain, improve function, and promote healing. We are will support you every step of the journey to recovery as rocky as a road can be after an accident.
Our goal is not only to alleviate your immediate discomfort but also to enhance your overall well-being. We encourage open communication and actively involve you in your recovery process, empowering you to return to your daily activities with confidence. Whether you are experiencing acute injuries or chronic pain, our team is here to support you on your journey to recovery.
KNEE PAIN?
Did you know that the knee is one of the most limited joints in the body? It literally knows and performs basically one motion, to hinge. It bends. So why do so many people have so many issues with such a simplistic functional movement system?
The answer is what controls its loading. It gets loaded. Constantly. And no, not like the day drinker at the bar arriving everyday well before the sun hits noon.
To fix a knee issue requires analyzing what is causing a load stress on it. There are major muscle groups from the hip that are essentially in charge of what forces get put on the knee. And it gets loaded by gravity all the time when we stand. And for those people that have never had one major traumatic event to the knee but overtime have developed this transient unknown knee pain this is your focus. By looking at the hip and ankle, joints with tremendous more cardinal movement in multiple joint planes we can often get a lot of answer about what is causing the chronic knee pain. And it is often something easily repairable with rehabilitative exercises, lifestyle changes, and a little consistency to new physical habits and routine.
Is it more complicated that this? Yes, it is sometimes. But that is what we specialize in. And each unique individual deserves the evaluation and care to identify the origin of the dysfunction for the most effective treatment approach a better outcome of long term recovery overall.
Craniosacral + Visceral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy and visceral manipulation are two gentle, hands-on techniques used to enhance the body's natural healing processes.
Craniosacral therapy changes our internal system that quietly has held tension for too long. It focuses on the central nervous system and the craniosacral structures, which is composed of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. There is a rhythm in this system not too different than our pulse where fluid moves throughout. By using gentle pressure and guidance, practitioners aim to release tensions in the body, improve the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, and promote overall relaxation and body function.
This therapy can be beneficial for a range of conditions, including including migraine headaches, tension headaches, anxiety, chronic fatigue, neck and back pain, stress-related disorders, autoimmune issues, poor sleep and insomnia, bed wetting in children, changes in temperament and cognitive function, depression and ongoing lack of motivation.
Visceral manipulation, on the other hand, targets the internal organs and the connective tissues surrounding them. This technique helps to release restrictions and improve the mobility of the organs, which can enhance overall organ function and contribute to overall better health. It’s keystone is used to address digestive health, and significant changes are seen the in digestive system. It also addresses organs related to pelvic function and pain, and even impacts to improve emotional stress when related to chronic organ dysfunction.
Both therapies emphasize the interconnectedness of the body’s intricate systems, advocating a holistic approach to health and healing. By integrating these techniques into treatment plans, Dr. Quint can help her patients achieve a deeper state of relaxation, reduced pain, and improved overall health and well-being.
SPORT INJURIES
Sustaining an injury while playing sports can be devastating to your performance for an extended period. Acute injuries initially take a toll, but the recovery process can alter the long-term outlook of your activities and lifestyle. It is imperative to receive the appropriate support and therapeutic care promptly after a sports or physically traumatic injury to prevent long-term effects and to resume your activities effectively and get your life back in the active routine that fits you best.
Work and Life Related Stress
Stress. And stress. And on it goes. It silently builds up over time and may begin to feel like a normal part of our daily lives, but we certainly don’t have to live that way all the time.
Pain everyday? Comes back again and again? Never seem to feel like an energized person anymore? It is important to recognize that there are effective ways to manage stress and improve our overall well-being. It’s not natural to always feel worn down. Stress relief tools and easy lifestyle changes can make big impacts to get your life back the way you want to live it. Even when it is work related and we can’t change our jobs there are we can alterations we can do right now to help alleviate and decrease that heavy stress load we carry. It feels good to do small things that help, and with practice and routine it gives lasting results and a big change.
Some symptoms of ongoing stress are headaches, neck and back pain, jaw pain, shoulder problems, fatigue, weakness, tingling and numbness in arms and legs, digestive issues, sleep disturbances, inability to self motivate and get tasks done, and even the inability to live life as we want or dream to.
Stress builds and builds, tissues get tighter, body feels tired and stiff, exercising and health seem unobtainable, muscles get weaker, and range of motion goes away and underlying chronic diseases form. So where is the outlet to release before it’s too late?
Stopping the pattern takes work, but it is not as hard as it feels. Dr. Quint will teach you the tools to stop these patterns and get some relief and long term changes before stress silently takes over your body and life.
NUTRITIONAL HEALTH
Our bodies are like machines. We run a system and over time things go faulty if proper maintenace and care is not taken. Just like fuel and oil, what you put in our system impacts the body machine’s performance. We try so many different things to change our health from the outside putting more stuff in or topically on, but rarely look at the core and consistent fuel we put in our own tank. It is true, what you put in is what you get out.
The digestive health and gut microbiome are the foundation of our long-term health, directly controlling our immune system and overall cellular functions. Inflammation stems from the gut directly and so do chronic diseases like Fibromyalgia, Diabetes, Heart Disease and High blood pressure, Chronic Fatigue, Skin issues like Eczema, Psoriasis, Gout, Joint Arthritis, and even Alzheimer’s has shown in recent decades of scientific case studies to have a direct crosslink to the state of our nutritional health and gut dysfunctions.
