Providing More Than Relief: Chiropractic for Performance Enhancement
While most people wait until they are in pain to turn to chiropractic care, many of our patients come to us simply to improve their performance. In fact, most major league baseball teams have a chiropractor waiting on the sidelines, and not for the reason you might think. Yes, chiropractors help relieve discomfort, but they do this by focusing on the health of the nervous system.
A healthy nervous system equals optimal function, and optimal function equals coordination, strength, and speed on the field. Whether low back pain or improved athleticism led you to chiropractic care, Dr. Michael has the knowledge and tools to collaborate with you and help you thrive.
Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization
Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) is a highly effective therapeutic approach that aims to restore and enhance the body’s natural movement patterns. Rooted in the principles of developmental kinesiology, DNS focuses on optimizing the function of the neuromuscular system by retraining the body to achieve proper postural alignment and movement efficiency.
Through specific exercises and manual techniques, DNS helps to activate and coordinate the deep stabilizing muscles, improving overall stability, strength, and mobility. This method is beneficial for addressing a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, sports injuries, and postural issues, making it a valuable tool for both rehabilitation and performance enhancement.
Functional Movement Screening
Functional Movement Screening (FMS) used to evaluate patient’s movement patterns to identify limitations and asymmetries. This screening consists of a series of seven simple exercises that assess mobility, stability, and functional movement quality. By scoring each movement on a standardized scale, FMS helps Dr. Bucher pinpoint specific weaknesses or dysfunctions that could lead to injury or impair performance.
The insights gained from the screening helps Dr. Bucher with the creation of targeted exercise and rehabilitation programs designed to improve overall movement efficiency and reduce the risk of injury.
