Treatments with Dr. Jeana Thomas DC ~ Chiropractic, Laser, AK & Reiki
Hi, I'm Dr. Jeana Thomas, DC.  I started DepthPerception, and this is the page for my Professional Self.  
I've been a Chiropractor since I graduated from the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 1976.  I
treated people in the Los Angeles area for 17 years (mostly in Santa Monica) with Chiropractic and many
other therapies until I moved to Denver, Colorado in 1993 to be the Chiropractor in the Washington Park
Wellness Center.  I took care of people there for 13 years until I sold my practice, Wellness First LLC, in
2006 and began dividing my time between Denver and Sayulita, Mexico.

After
more than 30 years of taking care of people with many different kinds of therapies, I am now
offering a selection of my favorites on a part time basis.  I have used and taught Applied Kinesiology since
1975, have used Activator instrument adjusting since 1976, and am a Reiki Master.  My most recent love
is using Laser Therapy (AKA "Cold Laser" or "Low Level Light Therapy" or "LLLT") for treatment of
many kinds of pain.  Read information about all of these below the pricing section.

INFORMATION ABOUT LASER THERAPY
- absolutely painless, safe, easy treatments with Light!
Laser is a well-known term these days, as we hear about lasers cutting through steel, lasers on construction
leveling devices, and lasers used in "Lasik" eye-surgery and cosmetic surgeries.  The lasers we use for pain
relief, anti-inflammatory action, and swelling, however, are not
hot lasers like the powerful ones used for
cutting. For this reason they are often called "Cold Lasers", though they are not cold either.  
You won't
feel it at all, but the laser sends photons
(LIGHT!) onto the skin, or deep into the tissues, according to the
setting.  The photons have beneficial effects on the cells they come in contact with.  Pain relief and
reduction in swelling can often be felt immediately, though most conditions require repeated treatments
for a better result.  7-10 treatments is a typical course of treatment, however, more advanced or long-
standing conditions may require either more than one course, or maintenance treatments.

Backed up by a multitude of scientific studies and patient testimonials, Laser Therapy in general and the
TerraQuant device specifically, have been shown to have the following results:

Relieving chronic and acute pain
(arthritis, tendinitis and such)
Speeding-up recovery from injuries
(sprains, strains, wounds, etc.)
Reducing inflammation and swelling
(tennis elbow anyone?  carpal tunnel?)
Helping skin conditions clear
(rashes, abrasions, possibly herpes)
Accelerating wound healing
(cuts, scrapes, post-surgical sites)

TerraQuant is unique in the following ways:

1. In addition to the tried and tested LLLT (the laser) it also uses therapeutic red light and magnetic field  
generation, and is the only product on the market that combines all these proven therapeutic radiances in
one device
2. It uses pulse rather than continuous laser which makes the treatment more effective
3. It is a user-friendly version ~it's safe, very easy to use and has no undesirable side effects
4. It is multi purpose and suitable for the whole family
5. Significant pain reduction or improvement of wound/skin condition can be experienced after 3-15
daily
treatments
6. It can be used in conjunction with conventional medical treatment
7. It is a professional treatment suitable for home use without medical supervision.


INFORMATION ABOUT APPLIED KINESIOLOGY
Applied Kinesiology (or "AK", or "Kinesiology") is a muscle testing and strengthening technique that
was originated by Dr. George Goodheart DC in the early 70's.  It quickly became and has remained one of
the most popular techniques available to Chiropractors.  Using AK, I can test up to 33 pairs of muscles
for strength.  Then, by a variety of (magical-looking, but physiologically sound) reflexes, I can often
strengthen 80% to 100% of the weak muscles.  (Not necessarily in one visit.)  Since weak muscles (and
assymetry of strength) are a major cause of future injury, this technique can improve your participation in
everything from yoga to surfing to normal daily activities like gardening and laundry.  A weak piriformis
muscle in your hip, for instance, can cause your sacroiliac (lower back) to "go out" with very little
aggravation.

Other conditions that can be checked and treated are Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Hiatal Hernia (a cause of
Acid Reflux), Adrenal problems from stress, Iliocecal Valve, Cranial bone or vertebral subluxations,
Sacro-Iliac sprains, active acupressure points and lots more.  It's great for a Check-up & Tune-up.  

Who will benefit?  
  • Athletes and active people - people who work or play hard.  
  • Anyone with a recurring or ongoing joint problem whether it's in your wrist, shoulder, sacroiliac,
    knee - anywhere.  
  • Anyone who just feels "out of balance" physically.  
  • Anyone who feels a knee or sacroiliac or other joint feels unstable - or like it could be easily injured.

When the muscles can't be corrected, other suggestions will be made to try and find the cause of the
weakness or exercises might be given to work a particular area.

INFORMATION ABOUT CHIROPRACTIC INSTRUMENT/ACTIVATOR ADJUSTING
Probably the best information can be found at this site:  www.Activator.com.  I've been using this
technique for adjusting since 197
6.  It's very different from the "cracking" type of adjusting in that each
adjustment is done with less force and more speed.  It's very comfortable to be adjusted in this way and
doesn't elicit the fear factor that often comes with the more forceful adjusting.  The goal, as in all
Chiropractic adjustments, is to align the joints in such a way that the nerves exiting the spine can be
healthy and perform their functions without pressure or irritation.  We adjust the bones, but our concern
is with the nervous system.  Chiropractic is very effective in helping headaches, neck pain, mid back pain,
lower back pain, injuries to any of these areas, and injuries to knees, feet and other extremities
(knees,
ankles, elbows . . . )
.

INFORMATION ABOUT REIKI
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of completely non-denominational, non-affiliated, spiritual
healing.  The word Reiki is from two Japanese words: Rei, meaning Higher Power, and Ki, meaning Life
Energy or Aliveness.  Ki
is the Japanese word for other words you might know ~ Chi, or Prana.  You will
remain clothed and be asked to lie down on a massage table.  I will place my hands on or near parts of
your body.  The entire session can be conducted without touching the body at all if you prefer.  My
intention and yours will be combined to increase our awareness of the Aliveness which is present
everywhere at all times.  Our ability to realize t
his Aliveness and benefit from it, however, can be reduced
by stress, injury, worry, anger, fear, illness and dietary indiscretions.  A treatment often feels profoundly
relaxing and stress-reducing.  There can be a feeling of being more present and invigorated.  Many types
of healing have been reported from Reiki treatments, and may be a benefit for both you and me.

A Reiki saying is:  "Just for today:  Do not be angry.  Do not worry.  Be grateful.  Work with integrity.  
Be kind to others."
