How will Advanced Muscle Therapy resolve my issues with muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and nerves when my doctor hasn’t been able to do it?
What techniques are used by Advanced Muscle Therapy to resolve my muscular and joint pain?
We offer massage therapy which has shown in study after study to be the best line of defense for muscle or joint pain developed through injuries or just aging.
Massage techniques such as cupping, deep tissue, myofascial release, neuromuscular massage, and Active Release Techniques are used daily in our offices.
Our Doctor of Physical Therapy is on staff to help with any situations that may need a special assessment or physical therapy prescribed by an MD.
We offer so many modalities that sometimes we can’t put everything in a short concise group, however, here are some of the tools we use to help you resolve your pain:
- Piezo Wave2: We offer extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) to help remove restrictions and adhesions along the full length of the muscle, tendons and ligaments.
- Light MD: Our red light and infra-red light machine was developed by a NASA scientist and has shown remarkable results in healing burned tissue, post surgical wounds, strained muscles, chronic sinus issues that present with headaches and chronic pain from post surgical areas.
- Tool assisted myofascial release: Gua Shau blades remove adhesions along tendons and ligaments. Cupping helps reduce inflammation and assists myofascial release that helps restore tonicity to the human body. Foam Rollers assist in myofascial release and may be used in the office or at home with proper instruction. Hypervolts are state of the art percussion instruments that help reduce sensitivity and pain in an area that needs additional fascial therapy.
Stretch Therapy: We offer a unique fascial stretching technique that, over the last 15 years, has given our clients freedom of movement without pain and our athletes the flexibility they need to compete in today’s high speed endurance races.

I heard you offer Physical Therapy for Women’s Health. What is it and why is it needed?
Where can I learn more about Active Release Technique (ART)?
Do you offer Personal Training and how frequently should I see a trainer?
Many weekly clients reduce their frequency of personal training sessions to bi-weekly or even monthly once they’ve demonstrated the ability to consistently get to the gym and progress their exercises as recommended. Although we miss seeing their smiling faces, we are always proud when clients reduce their need to see us because they’ve become self-directed exercisers.
What are some other common questions people have about exercising?
Do I need to diet as well as exercise if my goal is weight loss?

Why can't I just do cardio?
Adding strength training to your program allows you to (1) increase the load on your legs, (2) change the range of motion you move your joints through and (3) target muscles that you don’t typically use during cardiovascular training.
