New Location for Chiropractic, Dietetics and Nutrition Practice

April 4, 2013 - PRLog -- Dr. Lorraine Del Rosso of Dr. Lorraine Del Rosso Chiropractic, Dietetics, and Nutrition, PLLC announces the opening of her new office at 325 Ushers Road, Ballston Lake, NY. The office telephone number is (518) 496-2142. The website is www.drdelrosso.com.

At the new location, Dr. Del Rosso offers advanced chiropractic healthcare, nutrition and wellness services, including:
     Gentle manipulation and non-manipulation techniques
     Cold-level laser therapy for acute and chronic pain, sports injuries, neck and back pain, shoulder pain, sprains and strains
     Wellness and weight management guided by a board certified nutritionist
     Advanced nutritional screenings for heavy metals, stress hormones and estrogen levels.

In the area of advanced chiropractic healthcare, Dr. Del Rosso is trained in the use of the Erchonia Laser PL5000™, the first laser in the world granted market clearance by the FDA for the treatment of chronic pain.

“This technology has revolutionized chiropractic healthcare,” Dr. Del Rosso says. “The market clearance was granted after two randomized double-blind clinical trials in which 66 percent pain reduction was observed after a single treatment. I like to think of the Erchonia Laser PL5000™ as a calculator that subtracts pain. With this state-of-the-art technology, I can help even more people. Additionally, this technology will allow all of my patients to progress to higher levels of wellness.”

According to Dr. Del Rosso, the hand-held Erchonia Laser PL5000™ emits visible coherent light that is applied to the affected area. The low-level laser light initiates increased microcirculation within the injured muscle and stimulates tissue regeneration. The overall effects are decreased pain and inflammation and increased range of motion.  

In the area of nutrition and wellness, Dr. Del Rosso advocates a new, scientifically based, four-phase therapeutic lifestyle change program that includes:

      Body Mass Index (BMI), which provides an initial assessment of an individual’s muscle-to-fat ratio.  (A higher ratio of muscle increases metabolism and is associated with lower incidence of illness.)
     Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA), which is a safe, noninvasive test that assesses body composition as well as the health status of the individual
     Individualized plans that include assessment to determine optimal caloric intake as well as nutrition, supplements and exercise programs tailored to the individual
     A reasonable, balanced diet based on low-glycemic (rather than low-fat) foods, high fiber and healthy fats
     Weekly monitoring to track progress and to ensure that the individual is losing fat mass and not lean mass.

Lorraine Del Rosso, D.C., M.S., DACBN earned her doctorate in chiropractic from New York Chiropractic College in 1984 and a Master of Science degree in Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport in 1993.
