CAROUSEL PHYSICAL THERAPY, a full service physical therapy clinic, has serviced the Kilmarnock area and surrounding communities for over 15 years.  Our treatment emphasis is placed on individualized approaches to the resolution of Chronic Pain (Orthopedic, Neurologic, Physiologic and Post Traumatic) through blending manual therapy techniques with conventional modalities.

We want you to know that we are HERE.  We are anxious to assist YOU in attaining an improved quality of life.  Among the manual therapy techniques that we use, Craniosacral Therapy and Visceral Mobilization have proven to be the key in quickly restoring homeostasis to the body.

Craniosacral Therapy is a potent manual therapy technique grounded upon anatomical physiological therapeutic observations. It requires seeing the individual as an integration of mind and body.  Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, manipulative technique.  Its positive effect relies (to a large extent) upon the patient’s self-corrective physiological activities and inner self-healing potential.  It is used to promote connective tissue release in areas of fascial restriction.  It has been extensively explored through clinical experience and researched by Michigan State School of Osteopathy and John Upledger, D.O. of the Upledger Foundation, Florida.

Visceral Mobilization Therapy is a manual treatment approach that effectively helps restore efficient structure and function of the musculoskeletal system.  Any restriction, fixation, or adhesion of an organ to itself or another structure impedes normal function of the organ, and, over time, its related structures.  Some possible causes of visceral/organ dysfunction are: scarring, trauma, disuse, disease, pain & tension, vascular insufficiency, interstitial swelling, lymphatic stasis and influences of poor nutrition.  In Visceral Mobilization, manual skills are used to promote precise movement of a tissue dysfunction.  This approach was developed by Jean-Pierre Barral, D.O. of Grenoble, France and is the result of almost 20 years of extensive research and study.
