Nutritional Counsultations
At Bateman-Gatrost Chiropractic we have several unique diagnostic tools at our disposal for the assessment of nutritional status. Blood work, saliva testing, tissue mineral analysis and symptom surveys can all be used in conjunction with a thorough history in making nutritional recommendations. All nutritional recommendations should be cross-referenced with at least two indicators. Our nutritional recommendations are always a complement to any prescribed medications or medical care and are never a replacement. We strive to achieve optimal physiological balance within the body. This often negates the need for some medical treatments as a pleasant side-effect, not an overt intention. All herbs and other nutrients utilized are carefully scrutinized for any possible drug interactions.
Auriculotherapy
Auriculotherapy is a non-invasive form of electrical stimulation to the external ear. This form of ear “acupuncture” is based on a micro system in which the entire body can be treated on the surface of the ear. Your ear is the only area outside of your body that has all three fetal tissues that develop into everything in human anatomy. This unique characteristic makes the ear a great medium for treating the entire body. Among its more notable capabilities is the relief of pain and addictive behaviors.
Functional Soft Tissue
increase in range of motion and flexibility, and decrease pain. FAKTR (Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehab) is the primary soft tissue technique practiced here at Bateman-Gatrost Chiropractic. FAKTR incorporates the use of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization with active motion to rehab a variety of musculoskeletal disorders. While FAKTR is commonly used to treat athletes, it is safe and effective for patients of all ages and all body types.
Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback can teach the brain to function in a more balanced and healthful way.
Your brain is a complex organ with hundreds of actions taking place every minute. Much like a symphony, when all musicians are in sync the sound is harmonious. But if one musician is out of tune, the overall sound is affected. Brainwaves operate in much the same way, working together to keep your mind and body in sync and running smoothly. But if any of your brainwaves are off, it can impact your entire system negatively.
We Can Help Tune The Brain Safely. We specialize in brain based therapies using modern technology to map the brain and accurately identify problem areas. We combine brain training programs like neurofeedback with nutrition and other modalities to correct brainwaves. If you change your brain, you can change your life!
