The doctors at Walton Family use light force, gentle adjustments to align all bones within the body while removing any pressure caused by nerve interference. Using these specific adjustments allows Car Accident patient's to heal optimally.
Dr. Nathan Walton and Dr. Samantha Walton both believe that in order for everything to stay aligned within the body, the muscles need to be properly strengthened in order to hold the bones in place. Especially patient's in a Car Accident, we have exercises our patients do that will help balance out muscles and ligaments.
Making sure the muscles are properly activated will enable the patients to not only hold adjustments longer but also allow for a quicker recovery. Therefore, different techniques such as muscle taping, muscle scraping, trigger point therapy, and muscle flossing may all be done to help with the overall healing process.
Dr. Nathan Walton and Dr. Samantha Walton believe that getting adjusted regularly helps the overall body by removing interference. Yet, at a time when the body is going through many different changes along with an increase of hormones is an extremely important time to get adjusted in order to help keep mom and the baby comfortable throughout and after the pregnancy.
Traditional Chinese medical theory describes acupressure points as ones that lie along meridians in the body. It is believed that these 12 major meridians connect specific organs, organizing a system of communication throughout your body. The meridians begin at your fingertips, connect to your brain, and then connect to an organ associated with a certain meridian. Making sure all meridians are working properly without interference allows the overall body and organs to function properly.
