Chiropractic Care at Quinte Orthopaedics
At Quinte Orthopaedics, our chiropractor provides a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach designed not only to treat the root cause of your symptoms but also to help prevent them from returning. Your care is tailored to your unique needs and supported by evidence-based techniques that restore movement, reduce pain, and enhance long-term function.
Our Chiropractic Treatment Approaches
Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS)
DNS focuses on the nervous system’s role in controlling posture, movement, and gait. Our ideal movement patterns are developed in early childhood, but over time we often shift into compensatory strategies—especially during stress, injury, or repetitive strain.
These compensations can lead to chronic dysfunction and pain. DNS works to restore these original, efficient movement patterns through targeted manual therapy and exercise, ultimately improving stability and functional movement.
Medical Acupuncture
In times of acute injury or chronic pain, the nervous system can become overly sensitive and hypervigilant. This can result in altered posture, protective muscle activity, or inefficient movement patterns.
Medical acupuncture uses a neurofunctional approach to calm this heightened neural response, improve muscular tone, and help restore your body’s natural movement patterns. It works by influencing the brain and nervous system to reduce pain and promote healthy function.
Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT)
SMT involves a high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust applied to targeted spinal joints to improve mobility and overall spinal function. While manipulation has long been a cornerstone of chiropractic care, it is now used alongside a variety of complementary techniques to achieve more holistic and long-lasting results.
SMT can help relieve stiffness, improve alignment, and enhance the spine’s ability to move efficiently
Myofascial Release
Myofascial tissue refers to the interconnected network of muscle and fascia that spans the body. Restrictions or tension in these tissues can result from injury, repetitive strain, or movement dysfunction—and can contribute significantly to pain.
Myofascial release techniques, including Active Release Technique (ART) and Functional Range Release (FR), target these restrictions to restore flexibility, reduce tension, and improve movement quality. Your chiropractor may use one or a combination of these methods to support optimal function.
Your Care, Your Recovery, Your Results
Our chiropractor will work with you to identify the source of your symptoms and build a personalized treatment plan that supports long-term recovery—not just short-term relief. With a blend of manual therapy, movement retraining, and evidence-based strategies, we are committed to helping you move better, feel better, and get back to doing what you love.
