Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore spinal motion to alleviate pain and improve function. Our gentle, evidence-based techniques target fixations, reducing inflammation and nerve irritation. Patients experience relief from conditions like back pain, headaches, and sciatica through personalized, non-invasive care.
Flexion Distraction
Flexion distraction therapy relieves pressure on spinal discs and nerves. Using a specialized table, this technique treats herniated discs, stenosis, and sciatica by creating negative disc pressure. It promotes disc rehydration and reduces nerve root irritation for lasting pain relief.
Instrument Adjusting
Instrument-assisted adjustments provide precise, low-force spinal corrections. Devices like the Activator and Impulse deliver controlled thrusts for patients preferring non-manual care. This method effectively treats arthritis, muscle tension, and joint dysfunction with enhanced patient comfort.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue techniques address muscle imbalances contributing to pain. Nimmo trigger point therapy and Active Release Technique break adhesions, improve circulation, and restore mobility. These therapies complement spinal adjustments for comprehensive musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
Nutritional Consultation
Nutritional counseling supports overall wellness and recovery. Our consultations address dietary needs for weight management, athletic performance, and chronic conditions. Personalized plans emphasize functional nutrition to enhance chiropractic treatment outcomes and long-term health.

Questions
Is chiropractic care safe for children?
Yes, we treat patients of all ages with age-appropriate techniques. Infants to teenagers receive gentle adjustments tailored to their developmental needs.
Will adjustments cause pain?
Adjustments shouldn't be painful. Our techniques prioritize comfort, using low-force methods and patient communication to ensure tolerable, effective treatments.
How does the Activator instrument work?
The Activator delivers controlled, low-force thrusts to restore joint motion. Its spring-loaded mechanism provides precise adjustments without manual manipulation, ideal for sensitive patients.
Can chiropractic help non-spinal conditions?
Yes, spinal function impacts overall health. We treat conditions like headaches, sinus pressure, and extremity pain by addressing musculoskeletal imbalances and nerve function.
What causes post-treatment soreness?
Temporary soreness may occur as inflammation responds to treatment. This indicates healing and typically resolves within 24-48 hours with improved mobility and reduced pain.
How does self-back-cracking differ from adjustments?
Self-cracking creates joint instability, while professional adjustments restore proper motion. Our targeted corrections address dysfunction without causing ligament laxity or long-term damage.
