Chiropractic Services
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a hands-on therapy designed to alleviate pain and restore mobility by targeting soft tissue tension, adhesions, and nerve entrapments. Through precise pressure and movement, ART helps treat muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves, offering relief from repetitive strain injuries and improving overall tissue function.
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing practice that uses suction to enhance blood flow, reduce pain and inflammation, and promote detoxification. It treats various conditions, including muscle pain, skin issues, and stress, while rejuvenating the body and supporting overall wellness. Safe, non-invasive, and effective.
K-Laser Therapy, or High Power Laser Therapy, uses specific light wavelengths to penetrate tissues and stimulate cellular repair, reducing pain and accelerating healing. It effectively treats conditions like arthritis, neuropathy, tendonitis, and injuries by enhancing the body’s natural regenerative processes, offering a non-invasive solution for pain relief and tissue recovery.
Spinal decompression therapy at FIX Medical Group offers non-surgical relief for chronic back pain caused by herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis. By reducing pressure on nerves and promoting healing, this treatment restores mobility and improves quality of life, helping you return to an active, pain-free lifestyle.
What Our Patients Are Saying
Shawn at Fix Medical Group made my first chiropractic experience absolutely incredible. His approach completely put me at ease. During his analysis and information gathering portion of the appointment, his attention to detail was incredible. He listened, asked great questions and was able to draw some crucial additional pieces of information out of me that I didn’t think pertained (but they did). He made sure I understood what he thought the problem was and we are in the process of creating a game plan to fix it. I’m a 30yr old avid CrossFitter and hiker and have had chronic low back pain for years. After the first appointment, I felt the best I have felt in 10 years. I can’t wait to continue to work with Shawn and his team. I would give Shawn and Fix Medical 6 stars if I could. Great experience!! Definitely will go back.
I first learned about Dr. Shawn Robek, from Sue Falsone at a Perform Better Seminar. She highly recommended Dr Shawn and said he would be able to help. I had a total knee reconstruction of my left knee, all new ligaments. I was about a year out when we first met and I was in constant pain, with every step I took. I wasn’t able to flex my quad due to severe muscle atrophy and I thought I would never squat again. I just finished my 12th session with him and I’m squatting, lunging, jumping and walking with no pain! I worked really hard inside his gym and did the homework as he requested. We built a friendship that will last forever ! Thank you, Dr Shawn, for being you! May God continue to bless you and your business!
Everybody that I have met that works here is great! I’ve been to several doctors over the last few months, and I am actually scheduled to have eight-disc fusion surgery in June, but I have had 3 sessions with Shawn and he really knows the human body. He is aggressive in his treatment, but he knows what he’s doing, and I am so glad that I started seeing him. Before I couldn’t even walk my dog to the mailbox without my sciatica really killing me, but today after my appointment with Shawn, I could walk to the mailbox without my leg bothering me at all. So, then I walked another mile, which is big for me. Normally I can’t walk more than a couple hundred feet without my sciatica killing me because of the curve in my back. I’m glad I found these guys and I will continue my treatment with them.
Frequently Asked Questions
About Chiropractic
What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care is a practice of medicine focused on the body’s alignment and the positioning of your spine. Chiropractic care has many advantages over more invasive medical practices and uses natural methods to address pain rather than surgical procedures or medication. While those approaches do have their place, there are many cases of chronic pain that can be addressed naturally by trained chiropractic care professionals.
People with chronic back pain, pain as a result of arthritis, frequent headaches, and other common problems can all benefit from chiropractic care.
What are some chiropractic care techniques?
At FIX, we employ some of the most well-trained chiropractic professionals in the area, and they are trained in several techniques which can be used to address specific ailments.
Spinal adjustments
When most people think of chiropractic care, they think of spinal treatments, and for good reason. Aligning the spine can stop chronic pain in the back, neck, head, and other areas, and our professionals use only massage techniques to properly align the spine to correct these issues.
Active release therapy (ART)
When muscles are injured, they can leave behind scar tissue when they repair themselves. This is normal, but in certain people (especially in people who have injuries as a result of repetitive use of the same muscle) scar tissues from multiple places can form together and pull on one another, causing a great deal of pain.
Active-release therapy is done by a chiropractor who can locate these scar tissues and apply pressure to release them, thereby solving the issue.
Spinal decompression therapy
As the name suggests, this technique involves the stretching of the spine to relieve pressure on areas in the back that can cause pain.
At-home exercise program
Our goal is to get you back to pain-free living as soon as possible, and our team can work with you to create a plan of exercises specifically to target your areas of pain at home to speed up the healing process.
What happens during a chiropractic care evaluation?
It’s our goal to listen to you and learn your overall health goals. We take a holistic approach to your medical care and instead of jumping in with a cookie-cutter program, we customize your plan to meet your specific needs and communicate with you every step of the way to ensure you are happy and comfortable with the steps we’re taking to correct your health issues.
