Chiropractic Therapy
Chiropractic is an ever expanding and
cost-effective branch of the health care profession
concerned with correction of neuromusculoskeletal
injuries of the spine and extremities (i.e. shoulder,
knee, wrist). Chiropractors are primary health care
practitioners that utilize conservative, non-invasive
treatments such as joint manipulation, |
|
massage, physical modalities (i.e. ultrasound,
electrical muscle stimulation, low energy laser), Active Release
Technique ®
(ART®) and exercises to name a few, depending on the
injury. Dr. Erin A. White is also a certified kinesiologist with an interest in implementing
customized, active exercise rehabilitation programs.
Our patients include athletes, motor vehicle accident
victims, WSIB claims, and range in age from children to
seniors.

syndrome, shin splints, shoulder

Custom Fit Orthotics
Custom fit orthotics
are specialized insoles made to correct your specific
foot, knee, hip or low back condition. Orthotics work
on the feet similar to the way braces work on the teeth
- by exerting gentle, consistent pressure to bring foot
muscles and bones into proper functioning position.
They fit comfortably in shoes, boots, skates etc. and
are usually made of molded thermoplastic. The orthotics
are made from precise, customized impressions taken from
your feet. The symptoms of faulty foot and lower limb
mechanics include: localized foot pain, bunions, arch
and heel pain, leg and knee pain and hip and back pain.
Orthotics are not for everyone but conditions that may
be improved with custom fit orthotics include: shin
splints, plantar fasciitis, Jumper's knee (tendonitis),
iliotibial band syndrome, metatarsalgia, diabetic
neuropathy, low back pain and hip tendonitis to name a
few. After a thorough biomechanical exam and gait
analysis Dr. White can determine if orthotics may help
you. |
Kinesiology Rehabilitation
Kinesiology is the science of
human movement. It focuses on how the body
functions and moves. A kinesiological approach
applies the latest evidence-based medicine
principles to preserve and enhance human
movement in all settings and populations.
Dr. Erin A. White is a Certified
Kinesiologist (CK). His background as a CK
provides a guaranteed level of academic
competency and a professional standard of care.
All CK's are subject to Ontario Kinesiology
Association Standards and Ethics Policy.
Whatever your physical condition,
concern or current status, a CK approach can
help you overcome the obstacles to better
health.
A CK approach to rehabilitation
helps complement the holistic approach taken at
our office.
Are you wondering how to start an
exercise program? Do you need to boost your
performance at work? Are you recovering from an
injury or accident?
A CK can help solve these and
many other problems.
Kinesio Taping
 |
As of Dec. 7, 2008 Dr. Erin A.
White, will be fully certified
in Kinesio Taping, a very
popular and effective form of
treatment for many conditions.
Kinesiotape is a
specially-designed,
heat-sensitive tape that is
wrapped around the muscles and
offers the patient or athlete
extra support and stability
during rehabilitation. By
combining the motion of the
muscles and the stretch
component of the tape,
Kinesiotaping enhances
|
the natural healing power of the body. This
therapy originated in Japan and the results
are incredible.
Kinesiotape can be used for various pains
and disorders, as a preventive measure for
injury and for rehabilitation. Taping will
support muscles before and after exercise.
For athletes, it is possible to treat a
joint injury while protecting it by using
Kinesiotape in conjunction with conventional
sports taping.
You may have seen Kinesio Taping, the bright
orange, blue or pink tape on many Olympic
athletes (i.e. beach volleyball players)
during the recent Beijing games.
Kinesio Taping can be used for a range of
conditions such as: Achilles tendonitis, Low
Back Pain, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, tennis
elbow, shin splints, plantar fasciitis,
patellar-femoral syndrome etc.

Core Ball Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a deceptively effective exercise
tool, which builds tremendous strength and
flexibility throughout the body’s core
muscle groups.
Your body’s core is the real source of power
that enables you to perform at peak ability
whatever your sport may be. Elite athletes,
weekend warriors, busy professionals,
factory workers, moms, dads and young adults
have all gained remarkable inner strength
that leads to enhanced performance.
CBT is a very safe and highly effective at
rehabbing back, leg, shoulder, knee, elbow,
neck injuries to name a few. Dr. Erin A.
White utilizes this exercise tool, which is
an officially licensed product of the NHLPA
™ . The patented copper-coloured ball along
with the Elite 18 CBT Exercises will provide
the patient with the most effective method
of self-learning for strong balance,
powerful posture and ultimate flexibility.

system is online. Patients can review and
keep track of the prescribed exercises from
their home or office by accessing the
website.
