Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care offers non-invasive, drug-free treatment for musculoskeletal conditions like back pain, headaches, and joint issues. Our techniques restore spinal alignment, reduce nerve pressure, and improve mobility. Patients benefit from personalized plans combining adjustments, rehabilitative exercises, and lifestyle education for lasting relief.
McKenzie MDT
McKenzie Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) is an evidence-based system for assessing and treating spinal and extremity pain. It emphasizes patient education and self-management through targeted exercises and posture correction. Certified practitioners identify movement patterns causing pain and develop strategies to reduce symptoms and prevent recurrence.
Cox Flexion Distraction
Cox Flexion Distraction gently decompresses the spine using a specialized table to relieve pressure on discs and nerves. This non-force technique treats conditions like sciatica, disc herniation, and spinal stenosis. It promotes natural healing by improving circulation and reducing inflammation in affected areas.
Therapeutic Exercises
Therapeutic exercises strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and correct imbalances contributing to pain. Customized routines target core stability, posture, and functional movement to enhance recovery. Patients learn home exercises to maintain progress and prevent future injuries.
Neuromobilization
Neuromobilization addresses nerve irritation or compression causing pain, numbness, or tingling in limbs. Gentle manual techniques and patient-guided movements release adhered nerves and restore mobility. This approach effectively treats chronic radicular symptoms from conditions like sciatica or disc injuries.

Questions
When should I see a chiropractor?
Seek chiropractic care for recurring headaches, neck/back pain, joint stiffness, sciatica, or musculoskeletal injuries. We address both acute pain and underlying causes.
What is sciatica?
Sciatica involves pain along the sciatic nerve from lower back to legs, often causing numbness or weakness. Chiropractic adjustments can relieve nerve pressure.
How does spinal manipulation help?
Adjustments restore joint mobility, reduce nerve pressure, and improve circulation. This alleviates pain from misalignments, disc issues, or muscle spasms.
What is a 'slipped disc'?
Disc injuries occur when spinal discs bulge or collapse, causing pain. Chiropractic care often resolves these non-surgically through adjustments and stabilization exercises.
Do you treat sports injuries?
Yes, we specialize in rehabilitation for sports-related sprains, strains, and joint pain using manual therapy and therapeutic exercises.
