Treatment Methods
Dr. Armbruster uses a variety of treatment methods, with utilization depending both on specific conditions and patient preference. Chiropractic adjustments of the spine and extremities are performed either with manual Diversified adjustments, Activator technique, or other light-force manual therapy techniques. Also commonly utilized are moist hot packs, soft tissue massage, electrical muscle stimulation, ultrasound and microcurrent. Additionally, stretching and strengthening exercises, as well as postural analysis and gait analysis help the patient to improve and maintain their health with activities they can incorporate outside the office.
