Neuromuscular Balance Technique
Neuromuscular Balance Technique (NBT) is an integrated system combining many different techniques. NBT is used to analyze and treat 720 muscles in the body while correcting every joint to its optimal position and function. This treatment helps to restore and rebalance the human body along with injured or affected areas experienced by active people. (SEE MORE INFO BELOW!)
Synergy/Impulse IQ
Synergy utilizes an impulse instrument that adjusts to the frequency of the thrust in real time. Maximum biomechanical bone movement, minimal physical effort. AutoSense technology offers individualized pre-load, multiple force settings, optimal thrust rate, and is scientifically validated.
Radiology Interpretation
X-RAY interpretation of the spine or extremities is a pivotal diagnostic tool, when deemed necessary. To see is to know, to not see is to guess. We will not guess with your health.
Webster Technique
A specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment through the International Pediatric Chiropractic Association. The Webster Technique has become a familiar term in the pregnancy and birth conversation. Families are seeking out chiropractors who are proficient in this technique as a way to support a more comfortable, safer, and easier birth. By removing sacroiliac dysfunction, the neurobiomechanical function in the sacral/pelvic region is improved.
Thompson Technique
A full-spine adjusting technique that utilizes high velocity, low amplitude, and low force procedures with use of a drop table. Leg-check analysis enables differential distinction between primary cervical and pelvic involvement.
Piezoelectric Shockwave Therapy
Coming soon! A compressed and centralized acoustic sound-wave that penetrates tissue, resulting in decreased pain and inflammation while promoting healing and blood-flow. Treatments are short and resolution of symptoms is seen in as little as 6-10 visits. Incredible technology for tendinopathies, bursitis, and more!
Activator Technique
The Activator Method chiropractic technique uses a spring-loaded, hand-held mechanical adjusting instrument called the Activator. Alternative to a traditional chiropractic manipulation. Localized and low force specificity.
Sacro Occipital Technique
The Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a category system that recognizes that human structures have specific patterns of imbalance and adjusts accordingly. SOT is a chiropractic technique designed to reduce or eliminate pain or disorders in the craniospinal, TMJ, head, neck, back, pelvis, and extremities.
Training Programs
The work doesn't always end when the treatment ends. Through our cutting edge digital technology, we offer app based training programs to help you return 2 performance, increase performance, or just get started.
Supplementation
As proud partners of Standard Process, Design for Health, and NutriDyn, we are dedicated to providing high quality, reliable, and efficacious dietary supplement products to the professional health care community. These brands apply a holistic approach in the farming, sourcing, manufacturing, and quality-assurance of nutrients.
Functional Neurology
Functional neurology involves assessing major contributors to optimal nervous system function including visual acuity, breathing, vestibular system, proprioception, tactile sensations, and reaction speed.
Flexion Distraction Technique
Flexion distraction therapy aims to reverse spinal disc compression by gently stretching your spine. You lie face down on the table and your chiropractor secures your ankles using a comfortable strap. Then, the table will move the lower half of your body up and down in a slow, rhythmic motion.
Infrared Sauna
Infrared’s healing rays are felt on our skin as warmth, and are absorbed by our bodies to help them detoxify, improve circulation, recover faster, sleep better, and age well. The proof of this activity in our body is evidenced in the increase in core body temperature that happens during a 30-minute infrared sauna session. Sunlighten’s saunas are clinically-proven to raise core body temperature 3 degrees, which unleashes the most benefits to our health.
Neuromuscular Balance Technique (NBT)
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The initial examination identifies the problem areas (inhibited muscles that are unable to sustain a test contraction of 3 or more seconds). The treatment session involves eight separate reflex centers in the body that are worked on and the adjustment of three spinal segments which together will re-activate proper neurological function for that muscle. Once reactivated, the muscles are now “switched on” and respond by holding the contraction during the test.
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS?
Complete, pain free function. This system not only diagnoses the condition, but also determines the reason for the pain. The root cause is corrected rather than only treating the symptoms. Once the muscle is “switched on” it will stay on permanently unless there is a future injury to the area or an underlying deficiency.
HOW ARE INJURIES TREATED & PREVENTED?
This system allows for injuries to be treated immediately and can also predict and prevent future injuries by identifying which muscles are shut down and not working. Proper assessment, diagnosis and therapy of the entire area can treat and prevent the most common orthopedic conditions experienced by active people. You will heal faster and perform better with this work.
WHAT IS THE SCIENCE BEHIND THIS?
Pain plays a crucial role in the body’s communication system and is an indication something may be wrong. We discovered years ago the primary cause of joint and muscle pain is the result of muscles that have been injured in some way. When a muscle is injured, the nerve centers where the muscle attaches to the bone inhibit the muscle to protect it from major damage. The muscle will still contract during motion, but if the muscle is stressed it will give way due to the pain response at these nerve centers.
Other muscles have to adapt to take over the loss of muscle function. At the unconscious level, the body avoids using the injured muscle and our pain goes away. As time passes, more and more muscles become injured and inhibited. Eventually the ability to adapt from muscles that do not work efficiently is lost and chronic pain occurs. Exercises will not turn on neurologically inhibited muscles.
Acute and chronic conditions such as: patellar tendonitis and other knee problems, shin splints, illiotibial band (IT) syndrome, bursitis, tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, shoulder conditions including frozen shoulder syndrome, conditions of the spine including sciatica, headaches including migraines, sinus problems, concussions, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, ankle sprains, hip conditions, whiplash, systemic conditions, and all athletic injuries.
WHAT CONDITIONS CAN BE TREATED?
WHAT IS THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF INHIBITED MUSCLES SEEN IN PATIENTS?
By the time people come in for treatment they have accumulated a lifetime of imbalances. Brand new patients enter the office with 20-100 muscle systems affected. Extreme athletes and individuals that have had major injuries can have a greater number of muscles affected. Many muscles are inhibited because the anchor muscles have become inhibited. Once the anchor muscle is treated, many inhibited muscles begin to work again without being treated. This decreases the number of office visits required.
Over the last several years, I have had various diagnosis and treatments for the intense pain and muscle weakness in my lower back, hip, and leg. However, throughout those treatments it continued to be extremely difficult to participate in activities as simple as walking.
I was excited when recently, I discovered NBT. Dr. Kassi is excellent! She carefully described the technique and ensures you are comfortable with the proposed plan. She is very caring and understanding, and she listens to all your concerns.
After a few weeks of appointments with Dr. Kassi, I have seen great improvement and feel more energetic! I enjoyed a walk on the beach a few days ago!
I highly recommend Dr. Kassi!

“We love using this office! Always welcoming and the work you get done is top notch. You wont find anyone like this. Dr. Keith has helped my son through several sports injuries. We don't have to stop there though. Several members of my family have been helped in this office for things like back, knee, and neck pain. We highly recommend Dr. Keith and his team!'“
