Chiropractic Techniques Used at Wofford Chiropractic

Dr. Wofford is experienced in a variety of chiropractic techniques that cater to each patient’s unique needs. Some of the techniques we use include:

  1. Spinal Adjustments
    • Spinal adjustments are a cornerstone of chiropractic care, targeting misalignments in the spine that can cause pain, tension, and restricted movement. By realigning the spine, Dr. Wofford helps relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall function.
  2. Soft Tissue Therapy
    • This therapy focuses on the muscles and connective tissues, releasing tension and promoting circulation. Soft tissue therapy is often used in combination with spinal adjustments to support faster recovery.
  3. Cold Laser Therapy
    • Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that reduces pain, inflammation, and swelling. This advanced treatment accelerates tissue repair, which is essential for patients recovering from injuries.
  4. Kinesiology Taping
    • Kinesiology taping offers extra support for injured or weakened muscles and joints without restricting movement. This technique is commonly used to enhance recovery for sports-related injuries.
  5. Therapeutic Exercises
    • To promote long-term health, Dr. Wofford incorporates therapeutic exercises as part of his treatment plans. These exercises improve strength, flexibility, and balance, which can prevent future injuries and promote overall wellness.
