Dr. Vishal Verma
Director of BE's Pain Relief
& Sports Performance Enhancement Therapy Programs
Dr. Vishal Verma is Clinic Director and owner of Advanced Spine & Laser Center in Fairfax, Va., a leading integrative holistic pain management center. As a member of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) and the ACA Council of Physiological Therapeutics, Dr. Verma is at the forefront of activities and study that enhance athletic performance by combining traditional manual methods and cutting-edge technology.
Dr. Verma, a graduate of George Mason University and an honors graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic, is an expert in biomechanical therapeutic procedures. His practice focuses in particular on the diagnosis and treatment of several neuromuscular conditions in addition to improving the performance of athletes.
Biomechanics is the scientific study of forces and the effects those forces have on, and within, the human body. With regard to sports activities, biomechanics helps athletes achieve optimum technique while avoiding injury. Because biomechanics can analyze and interpret the cause and effect of forces applied to and by the body, professionals trained in biomechanical sciences are involved in a range of activities, from technical performance analysis to injury prevention and rehabilitation methods.
For athletes - whether the weekend variety or trained professionals -- Dr. Verma can optimize the performance of most individuals. Based on a sophisticated diagnosis that combines an examination of performance, motion, musculature and other elements, Dr. Verma relies on manual therapy, Endermologie®, and other rehabilitative technologies. Together, these treatments are called Biomechanical Performance Enhancement Therapy and are used to alter training patterns and incorporate specific rehabilitative treatments that can help address a particular problem or simply enhance performance.
Dr. Verma is also involved in many athletic activities, from golfing to extreme sports such as mountain biking and snowboarding. His first-hand knowledge of these and other activities provides him specific insight into what can improve performance. His drive for perfection in athletic performance fuels his passion to do the same for anyone willing to make sacrifices and work hard.
