Services
Chiropractic
Chiropractic care restores spinal alignment and nerve function through manual adjustments. This non-invasive treatment alleviates back pain, neck pain, headaches, and sciatica while improving posture and mobility. Our specialists use techniques like Active Release and Webster Certification for prenatal care, ensuring safe, personalized treatment for all ages. Regular adjustments support long-term wellness by enhancing immune function and reducing arthritis progression.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates meridian points to balance energy flow and treat chronic pain, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances. Our practitioners combine traditional Chinese medicine with cupping and herbal therapy to address migraines, fertility issues, and stress-related conditions. Covered by most PPO insurance plans, sessions promote natural healing by triggering the body's biochemical responses to pain and inflammation.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue therapy combines deep tissue massage and myofascial release to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance joint mobility. Targeted treatments address sports injuries, pregnancy-related pain, and chronic conditions like fibromyalgia. Doctor-guided sessions ensure precise therapy for conditions ranging from carpal tunnel syndrome to post-surgical recovery, complementing chiropractic adjustments for optimal results.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics correct foot imbalances that contribute to knee, hip, and back pain. Using 3D foot scans, we create personalized arch supports that stabilize posture and improve biomechanics. Unlike generic inserts, our orthotics address individual pronation patterns and weight distribution, enhancing comfort during standing, walking, and athletic activities while preventing recurring musculoskeletal issues.
Occupational Medicine
Occupational medicine services include pre-employment physicals, TB testing, drug screens, and respirator fit testing to meet workplace safety requirements. Our certified providers conduct comprehensive health assessments, lab tests, and vaccination programs for employers and employees, ensuring compliance with industry standards while promoting worker wellness and injury prevention.
