The goal at Windmill Health Center is to help you and your family achieve and maintain optimal health and healing through natural care. We strive to not only correct your health problems, but to educate and enlighten you so you do not encounter similar problems in the future.

Two clients may come into our Weston chiropractic clinic with back pain. Although their symptoms are similar, our Weston chiropractors may choose very different chiropractic services depending on the source of the pain. Each treatment plan is unique. After thorough consultation and examination, we will design a program specifically tailored to each patient’s chief health issue. A key component to maximizing a patient’s health is taking the time to listen to patients. During visits, Dr. Behar and Dr. Browner take the time to really get to know each of our patients. We listen and care about our patient’s concerns.

Services Windmill Health Center Can Provide

Allergy Elimination NAET

Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) is a painless, natural, and non-invasive treatment used to reduce pain as well as desensitize, reduce, or permanently eliminate various food, chemical, and environmental allergies. Allergy Elimination NAET can be safely used on anyone, from newborn infants to the elderly. As Weston chiropractors, we also use NAET to treat healthy individuals with food sensitivities or hidden allergies that could cause illness in the future.

In our Weston chiropractic clinic, we have found the following benefits for our clients:

• Finding allergies and eliminating them is a positive step in helping your body return to its normal balance metabolic state of homeostasis. Energy is no longer wasted on allergic reactions, but instead can be spent on detoxifying and healing.
• Future health problems can be prevented by strengthening the immune system and by maintaining a properly functioning metabolism.
• N.A.E.T. assists the body by reprogramming the brain to accept and fully utilize the food and nutrient substances needed for growth and maintenance. Eliminating allergies also aids in all other forms of conventional and complementary therapy.

Chiropractic Adjustments

The main treatment a chiropractor provides involves manual therapy including manipulation of the spine (“an adjustment”) or other joints, and soft tissue. Treatment also includes exercises and health and lifestyle counseling. A chiropractic adjustment consists of gently moving the affected joint into the direction that it may be restricted. It may also involve the application of a short, quick movement in that direction.

When an adjustment is given, built up pressure is released and some degree of motion is restored to the particular area. Some patients will feel immediate relief. Most patients find that periodic chiropractic checkups help keep them in tip-top shape. Those who are active, have stressful jobs, or want to be their very best, find that a schedule of preventative visits are helpful in the maintenance of good health.

Our doctors can help you to:

• Reduce upper and lower back pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain.
• Help relieve chronic conditions like headache or migraine.
• Aid in the relief of allergies, asthma, and other nasal disorders.
• Control sciatica and scoliosis.
• Recover from whiplash and other injuries after a car accident.
• Re-balance your body, helping remedy depression and aiding weight management

Kinesiology

Our Weston chiropractors use kinesiology, which is a form of muscle testing, to diagnose and treat imbalances in the body. For instance, we locate a muscle that tests “weak” and then determine why that muscle is not functioning properly through a series of strength tests. We then evaluate and apply the therapy that best eliminates the muscle weakness including specific joint manipulation or mobilization, various myofascial therapies, cranial techniques, meridian therapy, various reflex procedures, clinical nutrition and dietary management. Any one of these therapies alone or in combination will usually restore strength to the previously weak muscle.

Advantages of kinesiology include:

• Increase energy and vitality.
• Prevent Illness.
• Improve posture.
• Relieve Physical Pain and Tension.
• Defuse stress and the causes of stress.
• Heal traumas.
• Enhance Brain function and coordination.
• Identify food and environmental sensitivities.
• Find and clear underlying causes of energy blocks/imbalances/diseases.

Lumbar Disc Decompression

If you suffer from a herniated or bulging disc, slipped disc, pinched nerve, sciatica, arthritis, lumbar disorders, or chronic back pain, you may be an ideal candidate for lumbar disc decompression.

Spinal decompression has changed the lives of many of our patients who had given up on ever finding a non-surgical cure for their disc pain. The beauty of spinal decompression is that it offers a non-invasive alternative to painful and costly back surgery. With our method, the patient lies on his or her back on a special decompression table with harnesses to stabilize the body. The doctor identifies the painful disc segment and focuses the decompression treatment to that specific part of the spine.

Spinal decompression using the DRX 9000 literally stretches the space between the injured discs, creating a vacuum. This vacuum takes pressure off pinched nerves and sucks the bulging disc material back into the joint space where it belongs.

Using this sophisticated method of disc decompression brings numerous advantages:

The #1 benefit is PAIN RELIEF!

Other benefits include:

• It is noninvasive.
• It is FDA cleared technology.
• There is virtually no recovery time.

Massage Therapy

These treatments focus on specific muscles, offering targeted pain relief by relaxing the muscles and promoting better circulation overall. They help rebalance the muscles in your body in the same way that a chiropractor rebalances your skeletal structures. Results include:

• Reduction in pain from many sources.
• Decrease in muscle spasms.
• Increased blood flow to muscles.
• Improved range of motion and muscle movement.
• Decreased number of painful muscle knots.
• Fewer problems with allergy, headache, and stress.

At Windmill Health Center, we provide the following Physiotherapy services:

• Post-surgical rehabilitation
• Rehabilitation of sports injuries
• Rehabilitation of work-related injuries
• Rehabilitation of chronically weak or injured joints and muscles

Spider Kinesio Taping

As Weston chiropractors skilled in treating sports injuries, we see a lot of chiropractic patients who suffer from chronic muscle pain and inflammation. We see these same symptoms among those who suffer from chronic headaches, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, arthritis and neck pain as well. The Kinesio Taping® Method is a definitive rehabilitative taping technique that is designed to facilitate the body’s natural healing process while providing support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body’s range of motion. Latex-free and wearable for days at a time, Kinesio® Tex Tape can successfully treat a variety of orthopedic, neuromuscular, neurological and other medical conditions.

Advantages include:

• Pain and inflammation reduction.
• Prevention of injuries through re-establishing joint stability, enhancing the necessary healing mechanisms and through smooth controlled limitation of potentially harmful ranges of motion.
• Performance enhancement indirectly through decreased repetitive strain trauma, decreased onset of muscular fatigue and the reduced occurrence of muscle cramping.
• Relieves both acute and chronic pain

Therapeutic Exercises

Part of your body’s healing process is a gentle return to carefully chosen exercises. Our chiropractors will provide you with a list of exercises that will help strengthen your body, reducing pain and soreness and helping relieve stress. These exercises will be performed at our Weston chiropractic clinic with instructions on how to properly perform them at home.

Expected results include:

• Improved muscle strength and endurance.
• Better posture due to increased muscular stability.
• Increased protection for the spine.
• Normalization of spinal biomechanics.
• Added functional capacity throughout your body.

X rays

X-rays are not a therapy per se, but are used by our Weston chiropractors as a diagnostic tool  to view your bones and joints with clarity, and to some extent, the related soft tissues. X-rays are not done as a routine chiropractic office procedure at Windmill Health Center. Generally, our Weston chiropractors use x-rays only when there are “red flags” indicating possible fractures, bone disease, disc herniation or some other serious problems.

With our comprehensive care and technology, we put a modern spin on chiropractic care at the Windmill Health Center. Providing you with the latest breakthroughs in Wellness Care, we will help you get back on the right path.
