The CORE™ Advantage

prolo-flower_graphic-only

Exponential healing

Our bodies consist of an intricate network of biological mechanisms, from bone to muscles and down to hormones, we cannot heal properly without all these components functioning optimally.

Your regenerative treatment success is limited by overall lifestyle health. When introducing multiple service modalities into your treatment plan, each facet of the body is allowed to function better, contributing to an optimal healing process.

For example, helping our clients to lose weight and eat better improves cell health and produces better prolotherapy results. Successful prolotherapy, in turn, improves our patients’ ability to exercise more effectively and lose even more weight while increasing their range of motion. Each part of the CORE Advantage benefits the success of the others, creating an exponential healing cascade.

A Well-Rounded Approach

CORE’s integrative services ensure better recovery and retention when healing with multiple lines of care. We assess each patient individually to determine all possible lifestyle aspects that could be contributing to their pain. In this way, CORE prescribes only the treatments necessary to stop degeneration, and start regeneration.

Health Enhancement Analysis

Meet with CORE’s founder and CEO, Jaimi Jansen, and receive an integrative health enhancement analysis. Through muscle length testing, palpatory exams, and range-of-motion/gait assessments Jaimi will determine a personalized, custom treatment plan perfect for your body. We will partner with you on your healing journey and personally help you reach your optimal health.

The Integrative Health Enhancement Analysis can be beneficial for everyone. Whether you are new to CORE, or a returning member of our community, this session will open new possibilities and modalities for a happier, healthier you. As the body changes, so do the exercises we must perform in order to reach our optimal performance. Therefore, the Enhancement Assessment can be extremely effective if taken more than once over a longer period of time, and throughout your journey at CORE.

Metabolic Testing through InBody

Body composition analysis measures your body composition, generally known as your body muscle, fat, and water. Instead of focusing on a single number on your scale, body composition analysis allows you to focus on losing body fat and gaining muscle while retaining the proper amount of body water in specific areas of your body. Body composition analysis is the key to tracking and maintaining effective weight loss. Lose weight smarter, healthier, and happier like never before.

The InBody 770 is the best body analysis machine today, used by hospitals, professional sports, and even NASA, and Santa Cruz CORE has the only one available to the public on the Central Coast!

Nutritional Counseling

CORE nutritional counseling is a fun, interactive helping process focusing on the individual. Learn and gain insight into your diet, body, and potential. Get your body to a fit, healthy balance by implementing the efficient nourishment tools you will learn here. We look at the whole person and the whole picture. We are happy to cater to your needs and create your perfect plan.

Your Nutritional Counselor is equipped with the education, knowledge, and hands-on experience to guide and support you during every step of your journey no matter your end goal.

Dextrose Prolotherapy

Prolotherapy is an injection-based regenerative treatment that is administered to injured soft tissue (like tendons or ligaments). Standard prolotherapy uses a dextrose solution that is injected into the affected area and induces cell division and healing. These solutions are clinically proven to form new fibrous tissue via the inflammation healing cascade. Prolotherapy techniques reinforce and repair the function of otherwise incompetent structures.

Platelet Rich Plasma Prolotherapy

Prolotherapy injections using the patient's own Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) not only repair soft tissue like dextrose prolotherapy but also more advanced damage and dermal (skin) tissue as well. Blood platelets and plasma are separated from the rest of the blood in CORE's double centrifuge process and concentrated to be used as PRP injections. These platelets release growth factors that stimulate tissue repair and recruit healing mechanisms like cytokines and other growth factors to the area. Besides injury/degeneration therapies, we also offer the popular “vampire facial” which uses PRP to get rid of scars and yield a more youthful look for facial rejuvenation.

Stem Cell Prolotherapy

Mesenchymal stem cell injections are typically reserved for cases where dextrose and PRP treatments have been ineffective. Stem cells have a unique ability to “home-in” many tissue types and repair damage. They can become part of the muscle, bone, and nervous tissue.

This prolotherapy uses autologous (your own) mesenchymal stem cells. The stem cells are acquired from the patient’s own bone marrow or adipose (fat) tissue. Mesenchymal stem cell prolotherapy helps with degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis, where there is bone and joint degradation as well as many other issues.

Shock Wave therapy

CORE's newest technology is the Shock Wave, a research-backed treatment machine that utilizes high-energy acoustic waves to send pulses to afflicted musculoskeletal tissue. The acoustic waves exert a mechanical force on the tissue to trigger biological effects at a cellular level.

Shock wave therapy helps to trigger and improve the body’s healing capabilities by increasing stem cell activity and blood circulation, which stimulates the regeneration of damaged tissue.

HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves placing a patient in an environment of pure oxygen under increased air pressure. This allows for an increase in oxygen uptake by the lungs and oxygen delivery to healthy or injured tissues. Normally, oxygen is solely transported in the body through red blood cells. Using HBOT, oxygen is dissolved and delivered into the body's fluids, plasma, bones, and more. In this way, it treats formerly unreachable damaged tissues. There is a higher oxygen demand associated with tissues undergoing repair in the body. This means that one requires more oxygen to recover from an infection or injury.

Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy has been used for decades in wound management, toxicology, diving complications, and to treat vascular deficiencies. By its nature, it stimulates the immune system. It is now being used to treat concussions and migraines, and even to boost the results of Prolotherapy. For example, HBOT increases the yield of stem cells harvested from adipose tissue for Stem Cell treatment.

Acupuncture

At Santa Cruz CORE, we have a passion for what we do. We make an effort to spend significant time and energy with each patient to ensure their needs are met. For us, it’s more than just acupuncture; acupuncturists work with multiple healing modalities during an acupuncture session to get you feeling better. Working to create positive change in the body, we use a combination of needling, moxa, gua sha, cupping, ear seeds, massage, and Tai Chi and Qi Gung. Each individual is treated as such, an individual with a unique body and we use our various tools to create the most healing we can in each session.

The primary focus of TCM is on correcting the underlying cause of an illness or disease and thus producing lasting relief. Symptoms can often be relieved in a matter of hours or days, but correcting the illness itself is a much longer process. It is important, therefore to take an adequate number of treatments to ensure the best results.

Massage

Santa Cruz CORE Fitness + Rehab offers an experience unlike any other massage center. The difference in our service starts with our practitioners. Our staff is vetted and hired for their above-average skills, education, and knowledge, which allows them to offer a truly therapeutic experience. Secondly, our unique integrative approach means our massage therapists work with a variety of professionals to address and track your issues to get you to optimal health quickly and efficiently. Whether you would like to recover from exercise, stress, or injury, CORE Massage Therapy or CORE Fusion Therapeutic bodywork will revitalize you mentally and heal you physically.

At Santa Cruz CORE, our practitioners communicate with each other ensuring that you have the best experience no matter who you see. In some cases, we may even be able to use insurance.

Chirotherapy

The key to resolving chronic injury is to understand the compensations associated with the breakdown in functional movement, structural symmetry, muscle firing, and change in core communication. The Sports ChiroTherapy™ protocol allows identification and alleviation of incorrect compensations, restores structural symmetry, provides proper muscle firing, and establishes proper core communication. This enables the body to create a platform by which we can develop the patients' return to their highest level of performance.

The core theory of HMT is that muscular imbalance is the cause of injuries and decreased performance. HMT utilizes patient muscle feedback with indicator muscle testing to select the primary points of treatment for each individual condition. HMT is unique in that it combines acupressure meridian lines, muscle testing, and trigger point therapy to create a comprehensive soft tissue technique.

Personal Training

We provide consultations free of charge with the primary goal of determining the needs of the individual, this is our time to listen to you. Once we determine your functional state we design a program specific to the individual. Your trainer is your partner, your guide, mentor, and support system on your journey to optimal health and fitness.

In addition to personal training, Santa Cruz CORE trainers are experts in Corrective Exercise, also known as therapeutic exercise, to help alleviate and fix the symptoms of sports-related or other types of injuries. Our goal is to help you overcome and stay injury free. The first step to wellness is addressing current problems. Services include injury assessment.

Osteopathy

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT), is a non-pharmacological treatment modality unique to the osteopathic profession. It focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing physical manifestations of diseases such as joint restriction, muscular imbalance, and fascial distortion.
