After all, being physically active is essential to help the human body function optimally.
Though Dr. Afshin enjoys treating individuals from all walks of life, he has an avid interest in treating all types of athletes by helping to improve their pain-free function in sport and optimizing their results while helping to reach their personal goals.

Therapeutic Ultrasound: Sound waves are absorbed to initiate tissue healing, reduce pain, and increase circulation.
Low Level Light Therapy/Cold Laser: Light is absorbed through the skin to activate the production of energy in cells, and stimulates tissue healing at a cellular level.
Full Body Active Release Technique (A.R.T.): A movement based massage technique to treat conditions and problems associated with tight muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia, and nerve impingement. Treating any muscle, ligament, tendon, or nerve in the body.
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Technique (IASTM): For areas of chronic inflammation, degeneration, and fibrotic scar tissue. A Myobar tool is used to break down scar tissue to promote tissue healing, and increase range of motion.
Rock Tape Fascial Movement Taping: Rock tape is most widely known for its use on professional athletes. It is designed to create a biomechanical lifting of the skin away from the tissue underneath. This allows more blood to flow into the injured area accelerating healing, performance, and activating muscle groups.
Electrotherapy/Interferential Current (IFC): Reduces pain, muscle spasms, and muscle tightness. IFC has a higher frequency and reaches greater depths over a large volume of tissue in comparison to a TENS unit.
