Welcome to Spectra Med Physical Therapy!
Spectra Med Inc. specializes in hands-on Physical Therapy provided by Licensed Physical Therapists who spent 45 minutes to 1 hour of one-on-one time with each patient and concentrate on treating the cause vs. the symptoms of pain and dysfunction.
Our highly trained Physical Therapists with more than 40 years of combined experienced have pursued continuing education in the areas of Myofascial Release, Craniosacral and Lymphatic Drainage Therapy. We are committed to treating patients as a whole, utilizing the principles of physical therapy along with state of art procedures to treat pain and dysfunction. Our job does not end with relieving your acute or chronic pain. We strive to return you to full function and to educate you to prevent recurrences.
Myofascial Release: It is a hands-on technique used to release the fascial system. Fascia is a tough connective tissue that spreads thorough the body in a three-dimensional web from head to foot functionally without interruption. Fascia covers muscles, bones, nerves, organs and vessels down to the cellular level. Therefore when traumatized by an accident, an inflammatory process, poor posture or emotional stress, the fascia can bind down resulting in abnormal pressure on any or all of these body components, causing pain and dysfunction.
Craniosacral Therapy: It is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluation and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system – comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and the spinal cord. Practitioners release the restrictions in the craniosacral system, using a soft touch, generally no greater than 5 gr. of pressure, to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy: It is a hands-on method of lymphatic drainage that enables practitioners to detect the specific rhythm, direction, depth and quality of the lymph flow anywhere in the body. Therapists work with flat hands, using all the fingers to stimulate gentle, specific wave-like movements to activate lymph and interstitial fluid circulation as well as stimulate functioning of the immune system and parasympathetic nervous system.
The combination of all three are very effective in the treatment of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:
- Migraine Headaches
- Chronic Neck and Back pain
- Orthopedic Problems
- TMJ (jaw) Disorders
- Women’s Pelvic and Low Back Disorders
- Postural Problems
- Scoliosis
- Chronic Fatigue
- Fybromyalgia and other Connective Tissue Disorders

Ask yourself the following questions:
Have you been told your pain is chronic?That is in your head?
That you have to learn to live with it?
At Spectra Med Inc. we have the answer. We believe that chronic pain is not in your head. You don’t have to learn to live with it! Chronic pain is pain that went untreated.
