Neck & Upper Back Pain Relief: Graston + Acupuncture

We’re working with Mark to address neck and upper back pain using the Graston Technique® as both an assessment and treatment tool.

Graston instruments help us identify muscle knots, scar tissue, and fascial adhesions that may be restricting movement and contributing to pain. As the tool glides over the tissue, it provides feedback we can’t always detect with hands alone—allowing us to pinpoint dysfunctional areas with precision.

This is why Graston is often our first step:
✔️ Identifies restricted tissue and adhesions
✔️ Improves circulation and tissue mobility
✔️ Helps calm overactive muscles
✔️ Guides where treatment is needed most

Once these problem areas are identified, we highlight and mark specific regions for acupuncture, ensuring the next phase of care is targeted, intentional, and effective—not random.

👉 Stay tuned as we move into acupuncture and why needle placement matters.

Low Back and Glute Pain Relief: Shockwave / Acoustic Wave Therapy

One of the most common questions we get:
“Does Shockwave (Acoustic Wave) therapy hurt?” 👀

During treatment, intensity is fully customized using patient feedback and a pain scale—just like with Graston (IASTM). Some areas feel more intense than others, especially where tissue has been stressed or under-healed, but the goal is always productive stimulation, not unnecessary pain. ❌

Shockwave helps wake up tissues that haven’t been getting enough blood flow or proper signaling to heal—often the reason pain keeps radiating into the low back or hip.

Low Back and Glute Pain Relief: Shockwave / Acoustic Wave Therapy

After breaking up restrictions with Graston (IASTM) we often follow with Shockwave (Acoustic Wave) therapy ⚡

Shockwave works differently than manual tools. It sends high-energy acoustic waves deep into the tissue to stimulate cellular repair, increase blood flow, and jump-start the healing response—especially in areas that have been painful for a long time.

This makes it a powerful next step for low back and hip pain that tends to linger or keep coming back, even after hands-on treatment.

Think of it as telling the body: “It’s time to heal—now.”

👉 Next, we’ll show what shockwave feels like during treatment and how we adjust it for comfort and effectiveness.

Low Back & Glute Pain Relief: Graston

We’re working with Josh to address low back pain that radiates into the buttock using the Graston Technique®.

Graston tools allow us to identify muscle knots, scar tissue, and adhesions that may be restricting movement and contributing to pain. As the instrument glides over the tissue, it helps us feel areas of dysfunction that aren’t always detectable by hand alone—while also helping to break up adhesions and improve tissue mobility.

We always use a pain scale during treatment to stay within Josh’s tolerance, ensuring the work is effective without overdoing it.

Benefits of Graston can include:
✔️ Improved mobility
✔️ Reduced muscle tension and stiffness
✔️ Better circulation and healing
✔️ Faster recovery and improved movement patterns

👉 Stay tuned to see what treatment we add next after Graston to help speed up recovery and keep the spine and surrounding tissues functioning at their best.

👉 Pain isn’t something you have to live with. If low back or radiating pain is limiting you, book a consult and examination and let’s find the root causes.

As we wrap up this year, we hope everyone had a Merry Christmas filled with meaningful moments, gratitude, and quality time with family and friends. 🎄❤️
The holidays remind us how important connection, presence, and slowing down truly are.

As we look ahead, we wish you all a happy, healthy New Year! 🎉✨
The New Year is a great time to reset, refocus, and realign — starting with your spine, feet, knees and hips.

A few simple wellness reminders as we head into the new year:
• Stay consistent with movement — even small daily habits add up
• Prioritize sleep and recovery
• Stay hydrated and nourish your body
• Manage stress and make time for what fills your cup
• Schedule your New Year chiropractic treatment to help restore balance, improve mobility, and support nervous system function
• A healthy spine plays a vital role in overall health, posture, movement, and how your body functions day to day
• Don’t ignore aches or discomfort — your health is worth it

Thank you for being part of our community this year. We’re grateful for each of you and look forward to continuing to support your health and wellness in the year ahead.

Here’s to a strong, aligned, and healthy New Year! 💚
