He also completed post-graduate courses through the Motion Palpation Institute dealing with treatment of the extremities.

Dr. Jaicks is trained in Active Release Technique (ART) and Graston Technique, and has a special interested in acute and chronic back pain, sports injuries, and athletic performance. These soft tissues therapies directly treat the muscles, tendons, and ligaments causing your pain and conditions, reducing motion restrictions and inflammation while improving their function.

Ultimately, Dr. Jaicks encourages his patients to become active and influential in the treatment of their specific conditions. He takes great pleasure in educating his patients on what is causing their pain and dysfunction, and how his treatments will benefit them by correcting those causes.
