Welcome to the Millennium Experience

A new patient may experience some or all of the modalities ("treatments") offered at Millennium when seen by one of our chiropractors or our physical therapist.  Our objective is to effectively treat each individual's needs, whether that is by lessening your pain, increasing your stamina, or by guiding your 100 year lifestyle choices.  Millennium Health & Wellness is your place to let your mind, body, and soul heal, refresh and strengthen.

"...move well, eat well, think well, LIVE WELL!"

Here are some of the modalities you may experience:

• MASSAGE: The basic types of massage we provide to a patient may include Swedish massage, Trigger point, or cross fiber friction.  Swedish massage is relaxing and involves long strokes that begin gently and can increase to deeper tissue work.  Trigger point work involves pressure and release of a specific area on the body.  Pressure is held a few seconds, released and followed up by light massage and stretching.  Cross fiber friction involves compressing the soft tissue and applying short strokes in the opposite direction of the muscle fiber.   Every person is different, so every massage is different.  At Millennium Health & Wellness, you direct the intensity and the pressure of the massage.
• ELECTRICAL STIMULATION (E-STIM): Electrical Stimualtion is a form of electricity that is used to control pain, improve circulation and reduce muscle spasm.  Electrodes are placed around the painful area and turned up to the intensity you feel is comfortable.  Heat or ice may be used with this treatment.
• THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND: Therapeutic Ultrasound is a form of high frequency sound.  It is also used for pain control and muscle relaxation.  Ultrasound produces sound waves that enter the tissue and create a vibration.  The frequency and intensity of ultrasound is dependent on the area of the body and injury being treated. 
• TRACTION: Traction is a form of decompression that can relieve pain that is being created in the vertebral column, usually the cervical (neck) or lumbar (low back) areas.  This method allows compressed vertebras that are impinging on a nerve to gently lift the pressure off of the nerves.
• LASER: This technique enables your metabolism to speed up and accelerates the healing process.

• STRETCHING/EXERCISES: During the course of treatment, your provider may find it necessary to treat using stretches or exercise.  These are performed to increase your range of motion, endurance, strength, balance, etc.  Our objective is to educate you on the benefits of the exercise to help prevent any future risks.  One of our methods of stretching is through Kinesis by Technogym.  Kinesis is designed to accommodate muti-plane movement patterns without compromising the resistance load.  This technology introduces a new way to exercise in gravity with resistance, exalting balance and flexibility within a movement progression system.
• SPINEFORCE by LPG: Millennium is proud to be one of the few facilities in the country to offer SpineForce by LPG.  This innovative technology helps build stability in an unstable enviroment.  SpineForce targets the 186 deep spinal muscles that are most important yet most often neglected.  It pinpoints and tones these spinal muscles which helps improve mobility, balance, coordination, flexibility and posture while reducing the onset of chronic back pain, fatigue and stiffness.  The best part about SpineForce is it can be used by someone who is post-surgery or by an extreme athlete.  All spectrums of mobility and endurance can benefit fom the SpineForce.
