Direct Current Therapy
To address an injury, or help with a neuromuscular condition, we offer direct current therapy at Adjusted For Life Chiropractic Health Centre. The primary modality we use is
NEUBIE made by NeuFit.
How Does It Work?
The NEUBIE helps reconnect the neuromuscular system. When we’re trying to heal from injury and exercise, we focus on the musculoskeletal system and sometimes forget about the neurological side. The NEUBIE is a great tool to accompany the exercises to help reconnect the neurological side of the communication. Reconnecting that part of the system can help considerably with strength gains and pain reduction.
How Direct Current Therapy Complements Chiropractic
While an direct curent therapist tries to help a patient regain strength and movement, a chiropractor can help restore mobility within the joint. The direct current therapist can help maintain that mobility, movement and strength.
After all, our bodies are made to move. Staying active can help keep us healthy. Direct current therapy and chiropractic can allow you to enjoy greater range of motion and keep active at every stage.

Will exercise worsen my injury?
Movement will always help you get better, as long as it’s done within moderation. When you have an injury, it’s important to listen to your body and what it’s telling you. So there are some movements you can do right away, and then as you get stronger, you can do more of them.
