Muscle Release

Dr. Dalton is certified in various soft tissue techniques, which she employs alongside chiropractic adjustments to give patients the best care possible.

One of these effective methods is Triger Point Therapy or Soft Tissue Release with Range of Motion, a pin-and-stretch technique designed to alleviate muscle tension. This method involves shortening the muscle initially, then applying pressure and elongating it for maximum release, helping to lessen tension and tightness. Its benefits include decreased muscle tension, enhanced range of motion, and reduced pain and inflammation.
