Lumbar Flexion and Distraction
A gentle, non-thrust technique used for disc-related low back pain, sciatica, and stenosis.

Hands-on work on muscles and fascia to release tension that joint care alone will not fix.
NIMMO Receptor Tonus
Advanced trigger point therapy aimed at the neurological pathways causing chronic muscle tension.
Rocktape Rockblades
Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, sometimes called muscle scraping, used to break up adhesions.
Rocktape FMT Kinesiology Taping
Functional taping that supports muscles and joints while preserving normal range of motion.
Rocktape Movements Assessment
A movement-based screen used to find where the chain is breaking down before the pain starts.
Activator
A low-force, handheld instrument used for patients who prefer or require a gentler adjustment.
Thompson Drop
