If you are suffering from back pain, you're not alone- about 80 percent of adults in the U.S. report experiencing back pain at some point in their lives, and many of them never seek treatment.
Yet in today's chiropractic world, multiple impulse technology offers a gentle solution that leaves patients pain-free in a fraction of the time without the twisting, popping and cracking of traditional chiropractic methods.
In fact, chiropractors are finding that multiple impulse therapy tools such as the PulStar can effectively treat pain from musculoskeletal misalignments anywhere on the body- not just in the back.

Olson Chiropractic Center uses electrical muscle stimulation to treat injuries that affect the muscles in order to shorten healing time.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), or muscle stim, is a Chiropractic Therapy normally used on a patient who has a lot of pain or spasm in the area of injury or complaint.
When Electrical Muscle Stimulation is performed, mild electrical current is applied to cause fast contraction to the muscles.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation, often referred to as "muscle stim", is a the therapy that involves a low level of electrical impulses delivered to the injured area to help reduce pain, spasms, and improve healing.

You're probably familiar with ultrasound's most common use, fetal imaging.
However, ultrasound, sometimes called sonography, is also used by medical professionals to diagnose conditions that affect organs and soft tissues (during procedures like needle biopsies) and for therapeutic applications.
There are two main types of ultrasound therapy: thermal and mechanical.
Both use sound waves generated by a transducer head (which looks a bit like a microphone) to penetrate soft tissues.
Of course, the high-frequency sound is inaudible to human ears and can record the size, shape, and consistency of soft tissues and organs.

The ATM-2 re-educates your nervous system by temporarily suspending your pain and allowing you to move your low back, neck, shoulder and hip painlessly and then when you are released you have greater, painless mobility.
A majority of low back, neck, shoulder and hip pain disorders are created by what are called movement disorders.
These movement disorders result from faulty muscle contraction and relaxation when trying to move in a certain direction or position resulting in pain.
Until you can perform the movement without pain the muscles unfortunately remember these faulty patterns leading to chronic pain.

The MyoVision Scan takes 90 seconds and is completely safe, painless and non-invasive.
The MyoVision sEMG Scan reads the voltage that the muscles in your spine naturally emit.
These readings look at the level of voltage and the patterns of directionality, which allows us to determine if your spine and nervous system are functioning optimally.
MyoVision's state-of-the-art equipment helps your doctor quickly and objectively identify areas of further concern and customize care based on your results.
