Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF)

Electro Magnetic Frequency, also known as PEMF, is a cellular exercise machine that has been engineered to produce extremely brief, but repetitive pulses of magnetic field energy in nanoseconds. In translation, it provides energy at the cellular level of all tissue that it comes in contact with. PEMF has been used extensively for decades to treat many conditions and medical disciplines, and fortunately for his patients, Dr. Doug Forsstrom can perform this type of treatment right here at Forsstrom Chiropractic Center.

PEMF works to reduce pain and inflammation, improve energy, to balance the immune system and accelerate repair of bone and soft tissue. If you’ve ever heard of a person with a broken bone that hasn’t healed properly, this is because the energy in the cell or voltage is lacking and the normal metabolism isn’t functioning properly to bring nutrients into the end of the bone to promote normal healing. PEMF treats this issue by using voltage to increase the metabolism speed inside the cell by virtually exercising all the different kinds of cells. The result is a more relaxed muscle and a faster recovery.

Concussions and Chiropractic

 

Professional athletes see such great value in chiropractic treatment that they regularly schedule chiropractic visits to prevent injuries, even ones as severe as concussions. A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury that is caused by a blow to the head or body, a fall, or another injury that jars or shakes the brain inside the skull. If you are in a position where concussions are a constant risk in your life, then visiting with Dr. Doug Forsstrom of Forsstrom Chiropractic Center may help you manage head trauma. 

If a patient is examined and is found to be suffering from a concussion, proper measures will be taken in order to heal the injury. After experiencing a concussion some people may feel normal again in a few hours, while others may experience symptoms for weeks or months. If you are experiencing headaches, neck pain, or other symptoms that relate to a concussion, Dr. Doug Forsstrom can develop an all-natural treatment plan that is free from the use of any potentially harmful medications. 

If you experience any type of sports injury, please give us a call to discuss your treatment options.

Spinal Decompression for Herniated and Bulging Discs

Bulging or herniated discs can cause major pain that affects your everyday life; however, it doesn’t have to be that way. Dr. Doug Forsstrom of Forsstrom Chiropractic Center in Centennial, CO works with his patients to relieve bulging or herniated discs through spinal decompression.

Spinal decompression is a treatment that relieves the pressure caused by herniated or bulging discs. Our computer system controls the treatment which is created and supervised by Dr. Forsstrom for safety. The spine is stretched and relaxed in very precise movements that create a vacuum-like effect. The vertebrae are slowly separated so that the pressure is released and the soft, bulging material back into the disc. Treatment is usually about twenty minutes long, three times per week, for eight weeks.

Herniated and bulging discs usually cause pain because they are pressing up against spinal nerves. The nerves can carry that pain throughout the body. Relieving the bulging material on the nerves greatly reduces this pain.

To learn more about spinal decompression or to schedule a consultation with Dr. Doug Forsstrom, call our Centennial, CO office at (303) 770-5666. Appointments may also be made through our Forsstrom Chiropractic Center website, www.forsstromchiropractic.com. 

MedX Physical Therapy

For those who have back pain or weakness, you know that life can become difficult. Dr. Doug Forsstrom of Forsstrom Chiropractic Center in Centennial, CO is relieving his patients of back and neck pain by strengthening the muscles of the spine. We use MedX Physical Therapy here in our office.

MedX Physical Therapy isolates the muscles along the spine and works to strengthen them. A strong spine will lead to healthy vertebrae that have less of a risk of herniation or degeneration. MedX relieves back pain and prevents it from coming back.

MedX Physical Therapy works by using an advanced computer system coupled with an exercise machine. Dr. Forsstrom will conduct the treatment while making sure the patient is safe at all times. The patient will sit down at the machine and the precise movements will gradually improve the muscles’ range of motion and strength. Treatment is usually carried out twice per week for a few months.
