Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our doctors use gentle manual techniques to restore joint function and alleviate nerve irritation. This treatment improves mobility and reduces pain through targeted adjustments to the spine and extremities. Patients benefit from evidence-based care that addresses musculoskeletal imbalances and supports natural healing processes.
Dry Needling
This technique involves inserting thin needles into muscle trigger points to relieve chronic tension. By targeting myofascial restrictions, we break pain cycles and restore normal muscle function. Patients experience reduced inflammation and accelerated recovery from sports injuries or repetitive strain conditions.
NormaTec Compression
Our pneumatic compression system enhances circulation and reduces muscle soreness through sequential pressure waves. This 30-minute session mobilizes fluids to accelerate recovery from intense workouts or injuries. Patients use this service to improve tissue healing and maintain peak physical performance.
Functional Rehabilitation
Customized exercise programs address mobility limitations and movement pattern dysfunctions. Through SFMA assessments and corrective exercises, we restore functional capacity for daily activities and athletic performance. Patients learn home-based techniques to maintain progress between sessions.
Sports Performance Training
Our certified trainers design sport-specific programs to enhance strength, endurance, and injury resilience. Using movement analysis and progressive overload principles, we optimize physical capabilities for amateur and professional athletes. Sessions integrate biomechanical assessments with performance metrics tracking.

Questions
Do you accept insurance for chiropractic services?
We accept most insurance plans and provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Patients should verify coverage with their provider, as some plans may require pre-authorization for chiropractic care.
What should I expect during my first visit?
New patients undergo a comprehensive assessment including movement analysis, posture evaluation, and diagnostic imaging when needed. This 45-60 minute session establishes baseline measurements and creates your individualized treatment plan.
Are your treatments suitable for non-athletes?
Our services benefit all activity levels. While we specialize in sports rehabilitation, we treat general musculoskeletal conditions, workplace injuries, and everyday aches. Treatment intensity and focus adapt to each patient's lifestyle and goals.
Can I use gym facilities without chiropractic treatment?
Our gym memberships are available separately through monthly packages. Open gym access includes equipment for strength training, mobility work, and functional fitness with staff supervision during designated hours.
What makes your approach different from other chiropractors?
We combine chiropractic adjustments with functional rehabilitation, movement analysis, and performance training. Our evidence-informed approach emphasizes patient education, home exercise programs, and measurable outcomes rather than frequent maintenance visits.
Do you offer virtual consultations?
Remote coaching is available for fitness programming and postural assessments. While hands-on treatments require in-person visits, we provide virtual follow-ups for exercise progression and recovery tracking.
