Treatment at ALIGN CLINIC

Before receiving treatment from a chiropractor or physiotherapist, all patients undergo a thorough medical history assessment and physical examination. This ensures that the treatment plan is both effective and precise. The clinic utilizes modern equipment and safe treatment methods.

The clinic offers chiropractic care performed exclusively by chiropractors who are legally licensed in Thailand. Chiropractic is an alternative medical field not yet taught in Thailand. Chiropractors educated abroad must complete at least 5–7 years of study and pass rigorous exams in foreign countries.

Chiropractic adjustment
(Manipulation)

This method focuses on maintaining the health of joints and skeletal structures. It reduces nerve injuries and restores balance to the body, preventing future injuries.

Electric Stimulation

Physiotherapists at ALIGN CLINIC utilize advanced equipment such as Electrical Stimulation, Ultrasound, Shockwave, and PMS. They also provide manual therapy techniques to treat muscles and joints, enhancing flexibility and functionality for optimal performance.

Modern treatment approaches emphasize prevention to minimize the risk of injuries that may lead to impaired mobility. Whether you’re an athlete or an office worker with different physical demands, we offer tailored advice and treatment plans to suit your needs.

Shockwave

Shockwave therapy is a high-intensity sound wave transmitted from a probe through the skin where it interacts with the tissues of the body. The body responds by increasing the blood circulation and metabolism in the impact area.

Benefits

Stimulate blood
vessels formation.

Reduces pain
and relax muscles.

Increase and accelerate
muscles and tendons repair.

Features of the Machine Shockwave therapy utilizes pressure waves to treat patients with chronic pain. The shockwaves penetrate the painful areas, stimulating new injuries (re-injuries) in problematic muscles and tendons. This triggers the body’s natural healing process (re-healing), reducing pain by decreasing the release of pain-transmitting neurotransmitters and promoting the secretion of pain-relieving substances. Results are often immediate, especially for mild or early-stage conditions.

Chronic pain Neck, shoulder, and back pain Office syndrome Shoulder inflammation Knee inflammation Plantar fasciitis

Patients with acute pain Pregnant women Areas with implanted metal Treatment Process

Clean the treatment area with alcohol. Apply medical gel to the target area. Place the shockwave device on the treatment site and start at a low intensity. Gradually increase the intensity as the patient reports reduced tension or pain.

Pain reduction by up to 50% or complete relief for mild or early-stage conditions after the first session. Recommended intervals between sessions: 1–2 weeks, allowing the body to naturally repair chronic inflammation. Total sessions required: 2–5, depending on the severity of the condition.

PMS

Peripheral magnetic stimulation (PMS) is a non-invasive method of delivering a rapidly pulsed. It activates conductive structures beneath the stimulated region.

Benefits

Accelerate nerve repair.

Increase blood flow.

Decrease numbness.

Features of the Machine PMS therapy uses electromagnetic waves to stimulate nerve cells. These waves penetrate clothing, skin, nerves, and tissues to a depth of approximately 10 cm without causing injury to surrounding structures. The therapy induces muscle contraction and relaxation, enhances blood circulation, promotes relaxation, and reduces pain by stimulating the peripheral nervous system, which sends signals to the brain to inhibit pain. Additionally, PMS can aid in the recovery of patients with neuropathy by stimulating abnormal sensory nerve function.

Various pain conditions, including acute and chronic muscle pain, office syndrome, joint pain, and muscle adhesions Spine-related disorders, such as herniated discs, spinal degeneration, and sports injuries Numbness or tingling in the hands and feet (peripheral neuropathy) Muscle weakness conditions, including: Paralysis caused by stroke Spinal cord injuries (SCI) Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) Facial muscle weakness

2.Individuals with implanted electronic devices or metal, such as aneurysm clips

3.Pregnant women

A physiotherapist assesses the patient’s symptoms and determines the treatment area based on the pain or affected region. For office syndrome treatment, sessions typically last under 30 minutes. The physiotherapist evaluates which muscle groups require stimulation and adjusts the treatment accordingly. The patient lies down, and the therapist places the machine’s coil head on the targeted muscle area, moving it slowly. Each spot is treated for no longer than 5 minutes. The patient does not feel pain but may sense rhythmic tapping at the treatment site.

Immediate improvement in symptoms after treatment.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves to generate deep heat beneath the skin, typically at depths of 2–5 cm. This treatment helps reduce pain and inflammation in muscles and tendons.

Benefits

Relaxes muscles

Stimulates blood
circulation

Reduces muscle pain
and inflammation

Decreases swelling
caused by inflammation

Features of the Machine Ultrasound in physiotherapy utilizes high-frequency sound waves that penetrate deep into tissues, reaching depths of 2 to 5 cm. It is commonly used to alleviate pain, reduce swelling, improve blood circulation, and relieve muscle tension.

Pain and swelling Muscle soreness or stiffness Muscle adhesions or tightness

Fractures that have not healed properly Cancer or tuberculosis Pregnant women with abdominal or back pain Impaired sensory perception Implanted devices, such as metal, plastic, or pacemakers Ultrasound waves may stimulate the growth of cancer cells, tumors, or other complications, potentially leading to their spread. They can also interfere with the function of certain implanted devices or affect fetal development when used near the abdomen or back of pregnant women.

The physiotherapist assesses the patient’s condition and identifies the painful areas. Medical gel is applied to the affected area to facilitate the ultrasound. The machine is started, and each point is treated for 5–8 minutes. The intensity of the sound waves can be adjusted based on the patient’s comfort level.

Reduces pain and muscle tightness Decreases swelling and inflammation, especially in the early stages Enhances tissue flexibility Improves blood circulation

Electrical Stimulation

Shockwave therapy is a high-intensity sound wave transmitted from a probe through the skin where it interacts with the tissues of the body. The body responds by increasing the blood circulation and metabolism in the impact area.

Benefits

Accelerate nerve repair.

Increase blood flow.

Decrease numbness.

Features of the Machine Electrical stimulation therapy involves using electrical currents to stimulate muscles through the skin. This causes the muscles to contract and relax. The low-frequency currents used are gentle on the skin, providing relief to both superficial and deep muscle layers. Patients typically experience a comfortable tingling sensation during stimulation and feel significant deep muscle relaxation at the painful areas without discomfort.

Chronic muscle tightness or spasms Neck, shoulder, and upper back pain (e.g., office syndrome) Scapular pain Lower back pain or sciatica due to herniated discs Hip pain radiating to the legs

Pregnant women Areas with open wounds or active bleeding Patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) Individuals with pacemakers or metallic implants

Clean the treatment area with alcohol. Attach the electrical stimulation pads over the affected area, ensuring they cover the painful points. The treatment typically lasts 15–30 minutes.

Relaxes tense and knotted muscles. Provides a feeling of lightness and comfort post-treatment. Enhances blood circulation. Reduces pain and improves muscle flexibility.
