QSM3 Chiropractic

At Optimize Chiropractic, we are proud to offer QSM3 Chiropractic, a cutting-edge approach to chiropractic care that focuses on the intricate relationship between the nervous system, fascia, and the musculoskeletal system. This innovative technique, developed by Dr. Russell Friedman, DC, is designed to identify and address the root causes of pain, dysfunction, and suboptimal performance.

What is QSM3 Chiropractic?

QSM3 Chiropractic is a tensegrity-based approach that combines advanced diagnostic tools, gentle adjusting techniques, and personalized treatment plans to optimize the function of the nervous system and its interaction with the fascial and musculoskeletal systems. The key components of this approach: the assessment of spinal mechanics, the application of gentle adjusting techniques, and the integration of neurological and biomechanical principles grounded in the advancements in the science surrounding fascia and tensegrity.

Key Concepts in QSM3 Chiropractic:

  1. Tensegrity: QSM3 Chiropractic is based on the concept of tensegrity, which views the body as an interconnected system of tension and compression elements. By addressing the balance and distribution of tension throughout the fascial network, QSM3 Chiropractic aims to optimize the function of the entire body resulting in decreased pain and improved movements.

  2. Fascia: QSM3 Chiropractic recognizes the critical role of fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds and supports every organ, muscle, and nerve in the body. By incorporating the latest research on fascia and its impact on health and function, QSM3 Chiropractic offers a comprehensive approach to patient care.

  3. Biomechanics: QSM3 Chiropractic draws on principles from NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) and Thomas Myers' Anatomy Trains to assess and address the biomechanical relationships between the spine, pelvis, and extremities.

Benefits of QSM3 Chiropractic:

  1. Targeted pain relief: By addressing the root neurological and fascial causes of pain, QSM3 Chiropractic can provide targeted, lasting relief for a wide range of conditions, including headaches, neck pain, back pain, and many other complex pain syndromes.

  2. Improved function: QSM3 Chiropractic aims to optimize the function of the nervous system and fascial network, which can lead to improved mobility, flexibility, strength, and overall physical performance.

  3. Gentle adjusting techniques: QSM3 Chiropractic practitioners use gentle, precise adjusting techniques that are suitable for patients of all ages and conditions, including those with osteoporosis, arthritis, and other sensitive conditions.

  4. Personalized treatment plans: Each patient receives a personalized treatment plan based on their unique neurological, fascial, and musculoskeletal profile, ensuring that they receive the most effective, targeted care for their individual needs.

  5. Holistic approach: QSM3 Chiropractic recognizes the interconnectedness of the nervous system, fascia, musculoskeletal system, and overall health, providing a holistic approach to patient care that addresses the whole person, not just their symptoms.
