Chiropractic Care at Erickson Healing Arts
At Erickson Healing Arts, chiropractic care including adjustments and myofascial massage, are an essential part of helping your body heal. Spinal joints that aren’t moving correctly can irritate nearby nerves and cause myofascial strain. Adjustments add motion to these restricted joints, reducing nervous system disruption, so your body has the best opportunity to return to a state of health.
What to Expect During an Adjustment
I use many techniques to restore normal joint function. Sometimes I use a specific, gentle thrust; other times gentle constant pressure, or an instrument. I may adjust several areas or just one. Massage or myofascial release may be used to reduce fascial strain and muscle spasm. Craniosacral therapy is often incorporated to further support neurological function and promote profound relaxation.
Because I rely on adjustments to help your body “right itself,” the work is highly proficient. Most of my patients report a sense of well-being and ease. After all, if adjustments weren’t pleasant, our patients in the Upper West Side wouldn’t return for the multiple visits needed to retrain their spine and heal their body!
Who Can Benefit?
Everyone can benefit from chiropractic care, including newborns, infants, children, seniors, and even back surgery patients. I always tailor my adjustments to your size, age, and specific health issue(s). We help NYC patients every day who are stressed or feel hunched from long commutes or desk work.
