Integrative dry needling
Integrative Dry Needling is a highly effective form of Physical Therapy for the treatment of a multitude of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions. At The Healing Space, we practice Integrative Dry Needling (IDN). IDN is based on the research and work of Dr. Yun-Tao Ma, PhD from the American Dry Needling Institute (Integrative Dry Needling). Not all medical or physical therapy professionals are trained to perform this treatment technique. Dr. Ford has been personally trained by Dr. Ma and Dr. Frank Gargano, PT, DPT and continues to expand the concept of IDN.
Integrative Dry Needling IS NOT acupuncture (traditional Chinese medicine) which is based on meridians. IDN is founded on neuro-anatomy and modern scientific study of the musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems. A very fine filament needle is inserted through the skin and into the deeper tissues that are considered the generators of your pain. The proposed mechanism of action for Integrative Dry Needling is the creation of a micro lesion within the pathological tissue, breaking up shortened tissues, inhibiting a reflex arc from the nervous system to the tissue, inducing a mild inflammatory response, and centrally mediating the pain. This mechanical and neuromuscular effect provides an environment that enhances the body’s ability to heal which ultimately reduces pain.
Physical therapy
Truly valuable care encompasses so much more than the treatment itself. It is about how the treatment is delivered, the person providing it and the patient’s overall functional outcome. At the Healing Space you will receive one on one, private physical therapy services with a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Dr. Ford treats acute injuries and existing chronic conditions. Whether you want to eliminate pain, restore functional mobility or enhance your overall quality of life…There is a program for you. In many cases, patients have been able to avoid surgery and eliminate the need for opioids.
Vibroacoustic Therapy
Vibroacoustic therapy is a therapeutic approach that utilizes sound vibrations to promote physical and mental well-being. This therapy involves the application of low-frequency sound waves, which are transmitted through a specialized bed or chair, allowing the body to experience gentle vibrations. These vibrations can help reduce stress, alleviate pain, enhance relaxation, and improve overall mood. By targeting specific frequencies, vibroacoustic therapy can stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, making it a valuable tool for managing various conditions such as anxiety, chronic pain, and sleep disorders. The non-invasive nature of this therapy makes it an appealing option for those seeking alternative or complementary treatments
