What to Expect at Thrive Sports & Spine Associates
No matter what brought you to seek chiropractic care, at Thrive Sports & Spine Associates, our focus is on alleviating your pain. All our appointments begin with a comprehensive movement assessment and a targeted exam to address the issue at hand. This typically involves thorough orthopedic and neurological evaluations, and when needed, X-rays and MRIs.

We're not just interested in where you feel pain – we're keen to understand how your pain is impacting your movement. By identifying the source of your pain, we can address the underlying dysfunction rather than just managing the symptoms.
Our Approach
At Thrive Sports & Spine, we offer a variety of techniques for our patients, which allows us to find the right treatment plan for your unique needs. Your care team at Thrive Sports & Spine will create a customized plan based on your pain, movement, and lifestyle. Some of our techniques include:
Active Release Technique is a non-invasive treatment for a variety of conditions. This soft tissue technique can be effective for any patient dealing with chronic pain or muscle tightness and it’s often used to treat athletes with overworked muscles. At Thrive Sports & Spine, all our chiropractors are active-release technique certified.
Spinal decompression therapy is a technique designed to treat back and neck pain, herniated disks, and a variety of other injuries. At Thrive Sports & Spine, we specialize in cervical and lumbar spine decompression. Spinal decompression therapy can help to reduce the protruding disc, leading to less nerve pain. This treatment can restore your range of motion and reduce your overall symptoms.
Functional and Kinetic Technique with Rehabilitation, also known as FAKTR, is a chiropractic technique that consists of numerous methods and movements. One of the most common techniques used with FAKTR is instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, which can lead to reduced pain, improved mobility, and faster recovery.
If you’re pregnant and dealing with pelvic pain or you’re experiencing pain in your sacroiliac joint, sacrum or pelvis balancing can reduce many of your physical symptoms. Sacrum or pelvis misalignment can cause pain and discomfort. For pregnant women, it can also impact the positioning of their baby. This technique can restore your pelvis to its proper alignment.
Myofascial release therapy can help patients manage pain and stiffness, especially when they’re experiencing reduced mobility. When the connective tissue in one area of your body is damaged, it can cause tightness and pain in other areas. The myofascial release technique can help you manage your pain, increase movement, and improve circulation and mobility in your muscles.
Nerve entrapment release is a technique designed to treat painful and entrapped nerves. Chiropractic care is an effective treatment for pinched and entrapped nerves, which can be debilitating for patients. During nerve entrapment release, your care team will use a variety of methods to release the area where the nerve is entrapped.
Sacro Occipital Technique is a chiropractic technique that is used to restore the relationship between the spine, head, neck, back, and pelvis. By applying pressure to the pelvis, this technique can treat pelvic misalignment and reduce pain in the spine, back, and pelvis. This gentle method also reduces any pressure on the spine, restoring balance in the body.
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive chiropractic treatment that involves sending shock waves to a specific area of the body. This technique is effective in reducing pain and promoting recovery. Shockwave therapy can aid in the healing of conditions such as tendonitis, rotator cuff pain, muscle tightness, and plantar fasciitis.
Spinal Adjustments
During a spinal adjustment, a chiropractic will use their hands or a specialized instrument to apply force to your spinal joint. This type of technique can improve your pain and symptoms in different areas of the body. At Thrive Sports & Spine, we specialize in manual manipulation, ArthroStim, and activator adjustments.
The right therapy or technique for you depends on your health and current condition. Book an appointment with our team today to schedule your chiropractic assessment.
