| Initial Consultation and Diagnostic Services |
| Before treatment can begin, Dr. deGruchy and Dr. Burton use a combination of up to date clinical research with their own diagnostic experience to determine the structural and functional limitations of each patient. |
|
| Individualized Care Programs |
| At Downtown Chiropractic, we believe that each patient is unique. It is for this reason that we take special care when tailoring a treatment plan to the needs of an individual. |
|
| Biomechanical Analysis |
| This process is essential to each initial and follow-up assessment so that the doctors can determine which tissues are causing a patient's symptoms. |
|
| Biotonix Postural Assessment |
| This special service uses digital photography and computer analysis of a patient's posture. Patients are then given an exercise program that can be done to improve their posture. |
|
| Sports Injury Treatments |
| Sports injuries can have a profound effect on the body. Chiropractors help keep athletes on the field and help prevent minor injuries from becoming major ones. |
| Private Rooms | | At Downtown Chiropractic we dedicate time to each and every patient. Individual treatment rooms are utilized so that you can always be assured your health information is kept confidential. | |
|
| Spinal Adjustment Therapy |
| This is one of the primary modes of treatment for chiropractors. During this procedure, a carefully directed force is applied to one or more of the joints of the body, resulting in a typical "popping" noise and an increased range of joint motion. This is almost always accompanied by some level of relief of symptoms. |
|
| Soft Tissue Therapy |
| Dr. deGruchy and Dr. Burton employee a variety of treatments directed at the soft tissues. Techniques such as massage, trigger point therapy, muscle stripping, Trigenics®, myofascial release and others are commonly used for patients with soft tissue concerns. |
|
| Exercise Prescription |
| Exercise prescription is one of the methods used by the doctors during the rehabilitation process. Exercise prescriptions are tailored to the individual based on needs and ability. |
|
| Ankle, Foot, Knee, Hip & Gait Analysis |
| Analysis of lower limb mechanics is essential to spinal, pelvic, hip, knee and ankle complaints. |
|
| Orthotic Prescription |
| In some cases, orthotics are required to correct structural or mechanical problems. |
|
| Pre & Post Natal Care |
| Pregnant women can undergo many structural and hormonal changes that affect the spine, pelvis, ligaments, connective tissues, centre of gravity and stability. Appropriate chiropractic assessment and treatment can make pregnancy and caring for a child a more comfortable experience. |
|
| Chiropractic Care for Children |
| Similar to dentistry, regular spinal check-ups can ensure that your child's spine and body is functioning properly. Parents should be assured that chiropractic treatment is customized to the age and size of the child. |
|
| Diet and Nutritional Prescription |
| When appropriate, diet and nutritional advice can be given to patients. In many cases, nutritional advice can prevent the need for more drastic health interventions such as medications and surgery. |
|
| Wellness and Preventative Care |
| Research on chiropractic care has demonstrated that it is a useful treatment strategy for a variety of conditions (particularly those involving the muscles and joints). Similarly, regular chiropractic care can aid the body in preventing many abnormal conditions as well as preventing old conditions from re-surfacing. |
