Spector Chiropractic has added an SEMG
SEMG stands for Surface Electromyography. It’s not to be
confused with Electromyography (EMG) which is done with needles. An SEMG scan
is done on the surface of the skin using copper probes or sensors, no needles,
no pain.
Probes are placed on the skin
at specific levels to detect muscle activity. Misaligned vertebra, arthritic
degeneration, birth defects and other conditions/underlying diseases can cause
muscles on either side of the spinal column to be abnormally contracted. These
contractions send out an abnormal signal. The SEMG records these signals. The
strength and pattern of the all the signals is then displayed onto a computer
screen so that abnormalities can be seen and detected. The more intense the
muscle activity is, the greater the signal.

Looking at an SEMG graph of your spine is like looking at your pain, and it’s an excellent tool for the doctor. It pinpoints the exact areas of pain; the exact areas where problems exist. The doctor than knows where to direct therapeutic correction.
To arrange for a complimentary SEMG scan, call 410-321-7210.
