"Dr Feldman is not a fixer. He doesn't set out a stall that promises to wipe away your pain TODAY nor does he suggest that there are magic buttons that doctors can press to solve your problems. In fact, he often seems irritated if you dwell too much on the source of pain. He seems to want to get behind the pain and connect with your whole body, to help it figure out what it needs to do about itself. Your conscious mind appears not to be required. He asks (implicitly, often) that you give him your trust and relax into a journey that will allow you to relearn how to use your body. On the way, you may stumble across parts of your life..."

Chiropractic
Chiropractic can be helpful in treating the following conditions:
• Subluxations-spinal or other joint fixations/asymetries-causing inteference to the Nervous System
• Sciatica
• Headaches
• Digestive problems
• Hip and low back pain
• Neck and shoulder pain
• Allergies
• Asthma
• Bedwetting
• Carpal Tunnel
• Colic
• Ear infections
• Pinched nerves
• PMS
• Scoliosis
• Slipped Discs
• Whiplash
• Wellness care
The benefits of using my methods of chiropractic:
• Resolve long standing complaints in a relatively short amount of time with lasting results.
• Results for problems that haven't been solved elsewhere
• Helps to end habits which may be causing you pain
• Work deeper to get to the root of the problem, rather than just removing symptoms
• Low force, non-invasive, safe, scientific, effective
• Rationale and indicators-telling me where to adjust and if adjustment was successful
• Motion Palpation-Functional movement assessment
• Use of visceral manipulation and other muscle balancing techniques enhances quality and duration of adjustment
• Used in conjunction with the Feldenkrais Method and CranioSacral Therapy, so adjustments tend to hold and last longer
Chiropractic Techniques
Activator Method
The Activator allows chiropractors to give consistent, low force, high speed adjustments. The Activator creates more bone movement with less force as well as stimuating mechanoreceptors, which are so vital for establishing normal muscle tonus around the vertebrae. In additon, it is based on a highly specifcic rationale for adjusting the spine, that indicates when a spinal correction has been accepted by the body.
Applied Kinesiology
Applied Kinesiology [AK] is a system for evaluating body functions by means of muscle testing that is unique to the healing arts.
Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT)
Discovered and developed by osteopath and chiropractor, Major DeJarnette, SOT is a is a whole body approach for diagnosing and treating subluxations (inteference).
I follow the guiding principles of osteopathic medicine and chiropractic.
The Body Is a Unit.
The body is a unit rather than a sum of
separate parts. Anything that happens in one part of the body has the potential to impact every other part of the body.
Structure and Function Are Interrelated.
In order to function at their best, the
structures of the body must be able to move freely. Restoring normal motion to the feet,
pelvis, spine, ribs, chest , shoulder girdle, head and neck restores normal function and therefore, normal health.
The Body Is a Self-Correcting Mechanism.
When given the right environment and opportunity, the body
will heal itself.
The body contains its own inherent mechanisms
to maintain and restore health.
