Is Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization Method ( DNS) the only approach you use to treat in your practice?
No. Not at all. In Fact We Primarily use Active Release Technique. But the real key to our success is our expertise and understanding of functional anatomy of neuromusculoskeletal conditions, which allows diagnosing functional disturbances and selecting a treatment procedure most suitable for each individual patient. Being trained in variety of advanced functional clinical diagnostic methods, Dr. Shepard is able to decide which method or combination of methods fits each patient.
In our experience, however we see faster and more sound results with DNS exercises in combination with Active Release Technique.
We also use variety of classic physical therapy and chiropractic methods which survived the test of time.
