At Elite Performance Institute, our philosophy is to teach you how to prevent and heal injuries by providing the education you need to take control of any recurring problems within your own regimen of corrective exercises.
Dr. Mackay specializes in a gentle, specialized technique called micromanipulations. These micro-adjustments eliminate the need for aggressive pushing and pulling of your body. Micromanipulations uses small, precise, and painless manual adjustments to help correct the body’s alignment. This gentle therapy can be used on all types of patients, including pregnant women, children, and the elderly.
While the most common chiropractic technique is the spinal adjustment (also known as a spinal manipulation), Elite Performance Institute functions as a full rehabilitation clinic. Dr. Mackay's philosophy of care extends far beyond simple spinal adjustments. His experience indicates that an integrated approach to chiropractic, including manual therapy (massage), corrective exercises, and acupuncture, will increase your chance at successful rehabilitation.
In many cases, chiropractic care may be the primary method of treatment. When other medical conditions exist, chiropractic care may complement or support medical treatment by relieving the musculoskeletal aspects associated with the condition. Dr. Mackay's assessment of you begins with a complete physical examination. If indicated, he will order x-rays or MRI to further determine whether or not chiropractic treatment is the most appropriate treatment of your condition.
