Services
Pediatric Chiropractic
Specialized chiropractic care for infants, children, and teenagers focusing on spinal alignment and nervous system health. Our gentle adjustments address developmental issues, colic, ear infections, and posture problems. Research-based treatments help optimize growth and prevent future health complications while promoting natural healing without medication.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Tailored chiropractic adjustments using the Webster Technique to support maternal health during pregnancy. Our care optimizes pelvic alignment for easier labor, reduces back pain, and improves overall comfort. Specialized tables accommodate growing bellies while nerve scans monitor spinal health throughout all trimesters.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical treatment for herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back/neck pain. Computer-controlled traction gently separates spinal vertebrae to relieve nerve pressure, improve circulation, and promote disc healing. Most patients experience significant relief within 6-10 sessions combined with rehabilitative exercises.
Sports Injury Care
Comprehensive treatment for sports-related injuries using rapid release technology and soft tissue therapy. Our approach restores joint mobility, reduces inflammation, and prevents re-injury through biomechanical analysis and customized rehabilitation programs for amateur and professional athletes.
Neuropathy Treatment
Advanced care for peripheral neuropathy symptoms including burning pain, tingling, and numbness in extremities. Combining spinal adjustments with nerve function assessments addresses root causes of nerve compression while improving circulation and reducing reliance on pain medications.
