What Makes Us Different

Various adjustive techniques
Dr. Gurney uses the following adjusting techniques based on individual need:
Diversified/Gonstead
Thompson (drop table)
Activator
Sacral Occipital Technique
Upper Cervical (NUCCA)

Extremity Adjustments
Here at Aspen Chiropractic Clinic, we treat the whole body not just the spine. Dr. Gurney has received advanced training in extremities and is a Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner. That means, if you have shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle or foot pain, we can probably help.

Cranial Adjustments
The bones of the skull move as we breath. Improper movement can lead to headaches and seizures. We use gentle pressure to restore the proper movement of the skull.

Soft Tissue Therapy
We use the following soft tissue techniques to help the muscles, ligaments, and fascia heal. These techniques work faster and are more effective than ordinary massage.
Myofascial Release
Strain/Counterstrain
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

Sports training
Athletes need the fastest recovery possible to get back in the game. Your active lifestyle demands the same results. As a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician®, Dr. Gurney’s advanced training in sports injuries and rehabilitation will get you back into the action.

Orthotics
In addition to adjusting the arches of the foot, sometimes it is necessary to support your feet with custom-made orthotics. We make these in our office to insure they properly fit your feet. This conservative approach helps a lot of conditions like plantar fasciitis, bunions, hammer toes, neuromas, etc.

Taping
Dr. Gurney uses special hypo-allergenic and water-proof tape to help support weak ligaments and joints. You can usually leave it on for a week.

Physical Therapy
We offer a complete line of therapies that help support the adjustment and accelerate your healing.
Cervical Traction
Lumbar Traction
Intersegmental Traction
Spinal Decompression
Rehabilitative Exercises
Cryotherapy
Therapeutic Ultrasound
Diathermy
Russian Stimulation
Interferential Therapy
Premodulated Therapy
Microcurrent Therapy

Massage Therapy
Our office has certified and highly skilled massage therapists available to help relax tight muscles, improve circulation, and improve lymphatic flow.

Ergonomic/Lifestyle Advice
Computer, job, sleeping, and household activities can cause or aggravate many conditions. We will help you identify and remove these harmful activities.

Nutritional/Herbal Evaluation
There are many natural herbs and supplements that will help things like inflammation, pain, muscle spasms, and tissue repair. We will gladly make recommendations as needed.

Stress testing
Dr. Gurney uses your muscle strength to help identify the location of the problem and the direction to adjust it. This way only the areas that need it get adjusted and other areas are not aggravated with unnecessary adjustments. Specific spinal and extremity adjustments insures that your treatment is specific to your condition. You won’t feel like you are on an assembly line here!
