| Chiropractic |
Massage Therapy |
| Chiropractic aims to restore the natural position and maintain function
of the spine and joints of the upper and lower limbs. Chiropractic helps
relieve pain, improve range of motion and improve overall health. |
Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body. It improves
health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory
systems. |

| Active Release Technique (ART) |
Medical Acupuncture |
| Active Release Technique or ART is a specialised soft tissue therapy that
is designed to treat injuries involving muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia
or nerves. It is used to break down adhesions and scar tissue build-up in
the soft tissues. It is very successful in treating headaches, carpal tunnel
syndrome, shoulder problems and plantar fasciitis just to name a few. |
Medical Acupuncture is a precise technique stimulating nerves, muscles
and joints. The therapeutic purpose is to regulate abnormal activity of
the nervous system, muscular system and other associated systems in the
body. The benefits of acupuncture include pain relief, increased energy
as well as a sense of overall well-being. |

| Graston Technique |
Custom-Fit Orthotics |
| Graston Technique is performed with patented stainless-steel instruments
designed to detect and treat soft-tissue adhesions or chronic inflammation
in order to reduce pain and restore function. |
Orthotics are prescription arch supports, which precisely straighten your
feet and legs (similar to a car having a wheel alignment done). This helps
to eliminate foot, knee and lower back pain. |

| Individualised Stretching and Strengthening
Programs |
| Following an injury, muscles can get weak and shorten, causing muscle
imbalances, compensation and altered mechanics. It is important to stretch
and strengthen involved muscles in order to increase function and decrease
chances of reoccurrence. At OCHC we understand that every body is different
therefore, we design programs specific to the individuals needs and exam
findings. Individualised stretching and strengthening programs can also
help enhance performance. |
