I’ve neglected this blog for long enough.

The weird thing is just two days ago, I decided to type in some key phrases like active release techniques las vegas, active release techniques henderson, and dr oku into Google. Lo and behold, I was in the #1 and #2 position without doing any promotion for this site in over 2 years. I was taken aback a little bit.

Well, anyhow I’ve just upgraded to WordPress 2.8.4 and in the process of adding some new plugins to make this site more interactive and user friendly.

I’ll be posting new articles, videos, lists, and other useful resources shortly.

P.S. I have a new office number: (702) 737-0022

The primary goals of care include pain relief, spinal correction, soft tissue manipulation, and rehabilitation. However, a very close secondary goal includes early return to work. It is commonly accepted that patients who return to their normal activities as soon as possible recover quicker than those who remain sedentary.

As a result, our office works closely and cooperatively with both you and your employer to get you back to work. Most patients are able to return to work without complication, others require a work transition beginning with a few restrictions and limited hours. We will remain diligent in our efforts to restore your life to a pre-injury status. If you follow our recommendations concerning home management, keep your appointments, and comply with your initial restrictions, you have a very good chance of returning to work in a very short time.

Generally, when a patient is accepted for care, initial treatment is scheduled for two weeks (obviously case-dependant). At that point we re-evaluate and determine the success or failure of treatment. If the patient is not progressing as well as expected, we either switch treatment approaches and treat for another two weeks, or refer the patient for further diagnostic tests or to another physician for evaluation.

If the patient has progress after two weeks, we schedule them for another two weeks, then re-evaluate again. Eventually the patient either recovers and is released/discharged from care, or withdrawn from care to evaluate the stability of their residual condition.

Most patients enter our office, are treated and released. If you are struggling with a difficult case, or you feel that soft tissue therapy or spinal manipulation would be a favored treatment option for your patient, you may want to consider a referral to the Advanced Chiropractic Specialists office.

Are you a medical professional seeking results driven health care for your patients?

I believe in an integrated team approach to healthcare for the benefit of my patients. I work closely with local medical physicians and refer out without reservation when a patient needs a multidisciplinary treatment regimen. I have become a reliable referral source for local medical professionals faced with difficult or challenging neuromusculoskeletal cases. As a result nearly half of our practice comes from referrals from local medical physicians and other medical professionals.

If you are a medical professional visiting my site, I encourage you to browse the various pages, especially the Active Release Techniques section. If you’ve never been in a chiropractic office, I encourage you to contact me anytime for a nickel tour of my clinic and informative consultation. You can experience first hand the soft tissue technique system and technologies utilized in a contemporary chiropractic office.

Upon a referral you can expect:
• Initial and interim reports.
• A referral back to your office during active care and upon completion of care.
• A discharge summary upon completion of care.
• I accept only those patients I truly believe I can help.

If you have any questions about my clinic, or would like to refer a patient, feel free to contact my clinic at 702-737-0022.
