Services
Spinal Adjustment
Our spinal adjustments correct musculoskeletal misalignments using manual techniques to improve nervous system function and alleviate pain. This service addresses chronic back/neck pain, headaches, and posture issues through precise vertebral manipulation. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced inflammation, and enhanced overall wellness through regular adjustments tailored to their specific needs.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave therapy delivers acoustic waves to stimulate cellular repair and reduce chronic pain in musculoskeletal tissues. This non-invasive treatment accelerates healing for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and sports injuries by promoting blood flow and tissue regeneration. Clinical studies show significant pain reduction in 70-80% of patients after 3-5 sessions, making it an effective alternative to surgery.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression uses motorized traction to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves for herniated disc and sciatica patients. The treatment creates negative disc pressure to rehydrate discs and promote healing of bulging/ruptured structures. Patients experience reduced nerve compression symptoms including radiating pain, numbness, and tingling in extremities through this FDA-cleared therapy.
Neuropathy Treatment
Our neuropathy protocol combines chiropractic adjustments with laser therapy to address peripheral nerve damage causing pain, numbness, and weakness. By improving spinal nerve communication and reducing inflammation, we help patients manage symptoms from diabetic neuropathy and other nerve conditions. Treatment plans include lifestyle modifications to address underlying metabolic causes of nerve dysfunction.
Sports Injury Rehab
Specialized rehabilitation programs combine chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, and corrective exercises to accelerate sports injury recovery. We treat sprains, strains, and overuse injuries using techniques like kinesio taping, Graston therapy, and functional movement assessments. Our goal is to restore full range of motion, prevent re-injury, and optimize athletic performance through science-based rehabilitation protocols.
