CONDITIONS TREATED Back to the top
We specialize in the evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions. Our goal is to quickly restore normal pain free function. Following is a partial list of conditions that we commonly treat.- Headaches
- Neck pain
- Back pain
- Sciatica
Chiropractic Care:
Dr. Ferguson has over twenty-two years of experience as a doctor of chiropractic and uses various techniques, procedures, and modalities in the diagnosis and treatment of his patients.
Physiotherapy:
To help speed your pain relief and healing, Dr. Ferguson may complement the spinal adjustment of the joint dysfunctions/subluxations with one or more of the following physiological therapeutics: interferential electrical muscle stimulation, mechanical traction, cold therapy, and heat therapy.
Corrective/Rehabilitative Exercises:
As a patient, we may teach you special exercises designed for your specific needs to help correct and stabilize your musculoskeletal dysfunctions. For example, if the muscles that support your spine to keep it stable and safe are deficient in endurance, this leaves your spine vulnerable to recurrent episodes of irritation and pain. The only way to address this lack of endurance is through an exercise program designed to increase endurance. Once learned, these exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home.
Medical Referral Policy:
When your condition needs a team approach for your best outcome, Dr. Ferguson will put a team together to do everything necessary to give you the best and most cost effective care. Internist, massage therapist, neurologist, orthopedic surgeon, personal trainer, physical therapist, physiatrist, and/or radiologist may need to be a member of your team. Dr. Ferguson will refer, communicate, and follow up with your team for you.
ABOUT DR GARY FERGUSON Back to the top
I received my bachelor degree from Chaminade University of Honolulu. In 1988, I received my doctor of chiropractic degree from Northwestern College of Chiropractic. I have been practicing chiropractic in Hawaii since 1990.
In 1972, some friends and I left our hometown of Baltimore, Maryland to drive across the USA. After spending a week in California and looking out over the Pacific Ocean, we decided to see Hawaii. Spending a week in the Aloha State, we continued the road trip back to Baltimore. Reminiscing about the trip I decided that someday I would return and really experience Hawaii. After living in Hawaii over twenty-two years, marrying a lady from Laupahoehoe, and raising a daughter, I can't think of another place I would rather live.
I injured my back lifting a patient while working at a hospital. After two months of pain medication and physical therapy, the pain continued unabated. A friend's mother recommended that I see her chiropractor. I had no idea what a chiropractor was nor did my other friends, but I went out of desperation. At the chiropractor's office, I underwent an examination, was x-rayed, and the following day I received an adjustment. The pain relief was immediate. I realized the value of chiropractic and wanted to become a chiropractor.
ABOUT CHIROPRACTIC Back to the top
Chiropractic is the Science, Art, and Philosophy that concerns itself with the restoration of good health, with a focus on the musculoskeletal system and nervous system, and the effects of disorders of these systems, without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. The brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body control these important functions. The skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect the vulnerable communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots. If the nervous system is impaired, it can cause malfunction of the tissues and organs throughout the body. Our primary treatment of conditions presented is through the Chiropractic adjustment. This is a hands-on manipulation of the spinal segments, joints, and extremities. Our aim is to increase motion and/or stability, increase circulation, reduce swelling and pain, and remove nervous system stress. With these goals, your body is able to do what it is designed to do - heal itself.
Chiropractors help in restoring function and physical/mechanical stress reduction. This is achieved by focus on the biomechanics of the body such as joint motion. Helping to restore proper spinal biomechanics and improved nervous system function begins with a case history. Your case history is vital, as it reveals the background about your health such as surgeries, accidents, the onset of your condition, and other details, which brought you into the office. After reviewing your history and discussing your specific problem, an orthopedic, neurologic, and chiropractic examination is performed. X-rays and other imaging or diagnostic testing may be ordered to help uncover structural and functional problems. After your examination, we will explain the findings and outline a treatment plan. Progress is then monitored and care and treatment recommendations may be updated as your condition requires. If appropriate, other medical specialty referrals may be made for concurrent care or to address specialized problems not directly addressed by chiropractic care.
