Health Analysis
At Middletown Wellness Center, our approach to improved health and wellness starts with some of the newest analysis techniques. We usually start with Nutrition Response Testing, which involves testing the body's own neurological reflexes and acupuncutre points. Next, we use a revolutionary new tool, NervExpress, to assess the functioning of your Autonomic Nervous System. Based on our findings, a nutrional treatment plan is then taylored to your individual needs. Additional Health Center Treatments that may be part of your program are listed below.

“Detoxifying the Planet
Two Feet at a Time”™

ionCleanse:

Recall the way your body felt the last time you stood next to a waterfall or walked along a beach with the waves breaking at your feet. You breathed deeper into your lungs and abdomen; your brain cleared and the pains in your joints subsided. You felt relaxed and at peace with the world.

These invigorating reactions were caused by the ionization of trillions of water molecules as they crashed to earth.

The IonCleanse® creates precisely the same environment as a walk along the beach, only more powerfully because your feet are in direct contact with the ions being manufactured in the water. Place you feet in the water, turn on the unit and within seconds, millions of ions enter your body and begin to neutralize these tissue acid wastes.

Healthy individuals can expect to feel lighter and experience a greater sense of well being from each IonCleanse® session.

Acupuncture

Dr. Brian Gross is an Acupuncturist and Chiropractor with over 20 years experience. Dr. Gross’ methods of treatment are primarily Japanese-style acupuncture, nutritional and herbal supplements and deep tissue release via Sotai Ho - Japanese and TiuNa – Chinese muscle release therapy. Acupuncture is the maintain stay of Dr. Gross’ treatment plans. Japanese acupuncture utilizes a whole body approach to treatment. The concepts of balance of blood, body fluids and life’s energy coupled with symptom specific treatment allows for quick and noticeable improvement to complaints and overall health. In addition, acupuncture, jointly with other detoxification programs, can help with the environmental or hazardous exposures to toxins. Dr. Gross first consults with your referring physician, if applicable, prior to recommending nutritional or herbal supplements. There is careful consideration of all prescriptions and supplementation the patient may be already taking. The deep tissue treatment, enhanced by Dr. Gross’ chiropractic background, is best used for nagging, chronic musculoskeletal complaints and symptoms.

Hot Stone Massage is used to increase local blood flow, accelerate elimination of metabolic waste products, reduce spasticity and assess muscle tone.

Myofascial Release is soft tissue mobilization, used to reduce "trigger points" (TrP) in muscle and fascia by using ischemic compression and other techniques. The TrP is a painful band or "knot" in a muscle, formed by injury or by repetitive trauma.

Scars and “Light Therapy”

This treatment involves the use of Light Therapy with the use of a “Cold Laser”. The sessions usually last about 4 minutes ( 2-6 sessions).

As I learned and proved repeatedly in my practice, scars - primarily on the surface of the skin -from past injuries or surgeries, have consistently been found to cause hidden disturbances to the normal functioning of the body. Whether these are close to the organ in trouble, or even distant (as in a knee scar connected to a frozen shoulder), these need to be properly and thoroughly handled whenever they show up in our system of testing in order to attain optimal results.

Scientific research has demonstrated that any area of the skin that heals by scar formation has increased sympathetic nerve innervation. These scars can sometimes suddenly "activate" (even years after they were caused) and act as capacitors which accumulate nerve energy, and which can then mis¬fire at will, affecting local areas or ganglia which can then affect other areas away from the scar site.
