At Harwood Chiropractic and Massage Centre in Ajax, ON, we offer a diverse range of therapies to get you feeling your absolute best. Read on to learn more about our services and how they can help you achieve optimal health and well-being from head to toe.

Acupuncture for Holistic Healing

Acupuncture is a component of traditional Chinese medicine that uses ultra-fine needles placed along strategic points on the body to relieve pain and restore balance and the flow of energy within the body. The needles activate natural healing and regulatory pathways without medication. Acupuncture can effectively treat migraines, back and neck pain, arthritis, digestive issues, nausea, anxiety, sinus problems, and more.

Customized Massage Therapy

Our team of registered massage therapists provides personalized massage treatments tailored to your needs. Techniques like Swedish massage, deep tissue, trigger point therapy, joint mobilization, and range of motion exercises applied by skilled hands deliver relief to sore, stiff muscles and joints throughout the body. Massage improves circulation, loosens connective tissue adhesions, and reduces painful muscle spasms and tension.

Laser Therapy for Inflammation and Pain

Cold laser therapy is a fast, simple treatment that directs concentrated light energy onto affected tissues. The light penetrates deeply and is absorbed by cells, stimulating healing responses in the body. This boosts ATP production and cellular energy. Laser therapy can reduce inflammation and swelling, ease neuropathy discomfort, speed healing of injuries, and provide pain relief for arthritis, tendinitis, back problems, and other acute and chronic conditions.

Gentle Chiropractic Techniques

Our chiropractors use a range of gentle, yet effective, adjustment techniques to realign the vertebrae and joints of the spine, hips, and extremities. Manual spinal manipulation eases irritation and compression of nerves, muscles, and surrounding tissues to reduce pain and soreness. It also restores proper mobility to the joints. Chiropractic care enhances flexibility, movement, and coordination.

Spinal Adjustment for Joint Function

Specific spinal adjustment techniques including diversified, Thompson, and activator methods are applied to gently realign individual vertebrae and improve spinal joint function. This relieves muscle spasms and nerve impingement. It allows the muscles to relax while taking pressure off the spinal discs and nerves. Improved spinal biomechanics eases stiffness, neuropathy, headaches, and radicular pain.

Spinal Decompression for Disc Issues

This specialized motorized traction therapy gently stretches the spine to alleviate compression. It creates a negative intradiscal pressure to promote retraction of herniations and bulges. Spinal decompression also boosts circulation to accelerate healing. It can effectively treat disc-related sciatica, radiculopathy, degenerative disc disease, stenosis, and associated pain without drugs or surgery.

Graston Technique Breaks Up Scar Tissue

Graston technique uses patented stainless-steel instruments with beveled edges to detect and break down scar tissue adhesions. It releases fascial restrictions that cause limited range of motion, pain, and reduced function. The Graston technique promotes improved circulation and lymphatic drainage to speed healing of injured soft tissue structures.
