Why Chiropractic Care?

As chiropractors, we get to help people who suffer from a variety of health issues. Naturally, chiropractic helps traditional neck and back problems, but chiropractic has also produced wonderful results with a variety of organic and systemic problems. Chiropractic is safe. Chiropractic is natural. And Chiropractic works!

Research over the past decade has shown that chiropractic, exercise therapy, and massage therapy used together can produce faster longer lasting results for musculoskeletal problems. We will produce a program to address you specific needs in all of these areas and help you back to health by using a well constructed plan for these physical medicine modalities. Let us customize a plan for you.

How we work
Your nervous system controls and regulates every cell of your body. When your nervous system doesn't work right, you don't work right. And when you don't work right, you feel sick!

Neglected, spinal problems worsen and make correction more difficult and expensive later.

Please see our phases of care to choose the one that best suits you:

Phases of Care

1. As Needed
Come when you want.
We do not manage your treatment plan.
The goal is short term pain relief.
No long term change is expected.

2. Relief Care
We focus on getting you out of pain.
We remove spasms and swelling so your pain goes away. Frequency is important and typically three times a week until pain is gone.

3. Corrective Care
After you begin getting some relief, we help to correct the cause of the pain.
When you choose this type of care you understand that your muscles & tendons need time to change so that your body functions differently and the pain doesn’t quickly return.
There are 3 parts to this type of care.
  1. Relief   2. Correction   3. Stabilization
Usually your treatment frequency decreases as you go and re-exams tell us when to change frequencies.

4. Maintenance
If you continue the daily activities that promote stress and pain, a regular checkup of your spine will help you stay healthy and out of pain.
This type of care is most effective after relief or corrective care is completed and may not be covered by insurance.

Disc Decompression

What is Disc Decompression?
Spinal decompression, or disc decompression, is a non-surgical, traction based treatment to remove pressure from nerve roots in the neck and low back.

How Adjustments Help

Chiropractic adjustments are the most essential part of your care.
Spinal joints that aren’t moving right can choke or irritate nearby nerves. Chiropractic adjustments add motion to these stuck joints, reducing nervous system disruption. Then, health has the best opportunity to return.

Many Techniques
Sometimes a specific, highly-accurate thrust is used. Or an instrument delivers carefully directed energy. Or a slow, constant pressure is used. Several areas may be adjusted, or just one. Sometimes a popping sound is heard.

Feels Great
Because we rely on adjustments to help your body "right itself", we’re highly proficient.

Most patients report a sense of well-being and ease. After all, if adjustments weren't pleasant, our patients wouldn’t return for the multiple visits needed to retrain their spine!

Everyone Benefits
Newborns, infants, children, seniors and even back surgery patients can get adjusted. Naturally, adjustments are tailored to your size, age and particular health issue.
