Our Services

We offer a range of services including full-spine adjustments using the Palmer Package Technique, which focuses on delivering specific and effective adjustments based on each unique patient situation. We also provide extremity adjustments to restore proper motion and normal function to joints outside the spine. Additionally, we offer spinal decompression therapy for low back and neck pain associated with disc herniations. To complement and enhance the healing effects of chiropractic adjustments, we also use ultrasound and muscle stimulation therapy.
