Soft Tissue Therapy

Foundations Family Chiropractic > Soft Tissue Therapy

Soft Tissue Therapy

Our bodies are made up of an intricate system of soft tissue, including muscle, ligaments, and facia. These soft tissues are what attach to the bones allowing them to move.  When we have injuries, surgeries, pregnancy and birth, poor posture, and just years of wear and tear, these tissues are not able to effectively allow for full and comfortable range of motion of our spine. This perpetuates discomfort, pain, and the spinal degeneration process.

To compliment your chiropractic adjustments, we use both tools and our hands to help break up these tight muscles and scar tissue adhesions, and gently unwind restricted and distorted fascia. This reduces your pain and tension, improves circulation, and enhances mobility in your soft tissues surrounding the spine and other joints.

Initial Assessment

The therapist and client start with an initial assessment session where they get to know each other. The therapist asks questions to understand the client's presenting concerns, personal history, current life circumstances, and goals for therapy. This helps in establishing a therapeutic alliance and creating a treatment plan tailored to the client's needs.

Establishing Goals

Based on the assessment, the therapist and client collaboratively set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals for therapy. These goals serve as a roadmap for the therapeutic process and provide direction for the sessions.

Exploration and Insight

In subsequent sessions, the therapist creates a safe and supportive environment for the client to explore their thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors. Through reflective listening, empathy, and insightful questioning, the therapist helps the client gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and their life experiences.

Skill Building

Therapy often involves teaching clients coping skills and strategies to deal with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, communication issues, or other mental health concerns. These skills may include relaxation techniques, assertiveness training, problem-solving skills, mindfulness practices, and boundary-setting exercises.

Building Self Confidence

Therapists help clients cultivate self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-acceptance. Through validation, positive reinforcement, and encouragement, clients learn to challenge negative self-perceptions, build self-esteem, and develop a greater sense of confidence and self-worth.

Monitoring Progress

Throughout the therapy process, the therapist and client regularly review progress towards the established goals. Adjustments to the treatment plan may be made based on the client's evolving needs and progress.
