Various Soft Tissue Techniques

Dr. Bailey examines and treats soft tissue dysfunction using massage, transverse friction, proprioceptive neurofacilitation, strain-counter strain, and positional release techniques.  Soft tissue pain arises from tissues that are either too long, or too short, and in the case of muscles, too weak or too strong.  Treatment is designed to bring the painful tissues back into their proper length and strength, with as much patient comfort as possible.  The result is remarkably less pain during daily activities and sleep.

Variable Percussor and Variable Adjustor

Variable Percussor and Variable Adjustor:  These are mechanical devices to treat soft tissue and joint restrictions with safe, gentle, well-regulated forces.  Many patients prefer these techniques to other more vigorous chiropractic techniques.   These tools are used by Dr. Bailey for a “no popping” chiropractic adjustment, with the goal of pain relief, and normal posture and movement.

If you’ve been to a chiropractor before and prefer to be adjusted in a particular way, let Dr. David Bailey know. We want you to relax, enjoy and fully benefit from your chiropractic care.

Dr. Bailey  Asks some important questions of interest to Bryan residents - Chiropractor Bryan Dr. Bailey Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
How does headache medication find the headache?
It can't! Chiropractors know that when you ingest a drug and it enters your bloodstream it numbs or deadens your entire body. Chiropractic adjustments, on the other hand, are specific, targeted and delivered with precision.
