Care that treats the cause.

From your first adjustment to rehab, we use proven therapies to relieve pain and speed healing.

Adjustments & Manipulation

The term “adjustment” refers to the specific manipulation chiropractors apply to vertebrae that have abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. The objective is to reduce the subluxation, resulting in increased range of motion, reduced nerve irritability and improved function.

What is the “click”?: The adjustment is a high-velocity, short lever thrust applied to a vertebra, often accompanied by an audible “click” — the release of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide that relieves joint pressure (cavitation).

Decompression Therapy

A non-surgical means of relieving pain in the lower back and neck. This spinal disc rehabilitation program slowly and gently stretches the spine while decompressing the discs — and is considered very safe.

How does it work?: Stretching the spine creates a vacuum effect inside the discs that can help pull herniated material back inside, taking pressure off the nerve root.
How long does it take?: Sessions usually take place over four to six weeks and often end with dramatic, positive results.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture certification from Parker College, and the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners Certificate of Attainment (2019). Sterile, disposable needles are always used, and electrical acupuncture is available for anyone reluctant about needles.

Will it help my condition?: A 2002 World Health Organization review of nearly 300 controlled clinical trials found acupuncture useful for over 90 conditions — including allergies, low back pain, sciatica, neck, shoulder, elbow and knee pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis and headaches.
How many treatments?: It depends on the person. Recent injuries often improve quickly; 2–3 visits per week are recommended at first. A course for a recent problem may range from 2 to 5 treatments; chronic conditions may need 7 to 15.
Is it uncomfortable?: The needles are very thin — much smaller than hypodermic needles — and sterile and disposable, so there is no risk of disease transmission.

Cold Laser Therapy

A painless “light” therapy useful for plantar fasciitis, tennis or golfer’s elbow, myofascial pain and sports injuries such as sprains and strains. It speeds up cellular activity at the injured site to help reverse inflammation and speed collagen and elastin formation.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Not to be confused with diagnostic ultrasound — this therapy uses sound waves to treat injured muscles, joints and soft tissues, creating a deep micro-massage that reduces scar tissue and speeds healing. In chronic cases, a deep-heating effect helps “melt away” spasms and knots.

What does it feel like?: Most patients feel nothing, or a pleasant, relaxing sensation below the skin.
What are the benefits?: It enhances the body’s natural healing, treats muscle spasm, improves blood flow and reduces nerve root irritation.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation

Often called “muscle stim,” low-level electrical impulses delivered to injured, painful tissues reduce pain and speed healing. Patients describe it as a pleasant tingling or “electrical massage” that stimulates natural pain relievers called endorphins.

KinesioTape

A special elastic tape that supports joints while allowing complete range of motion. It can also lift the fascia over muscles to increase lymphatic drainage and reduce swelling — the same tape you’ve seen on Olympic and professional athletes.

Cryotherapy

Ice compresses reduce tissue temperature, constricting blood vessels, numbing painful areas and relaxing muscle spasms. Helps reduce swelling and inflammation — inexpensive and easy to do at home, too.

Rehabilitation

For many patients, eliminating pain is only the first step. Rehab focuses on strengthening the soft tissue around the joint to help correct the cause and prevent a relapse.

In-house X-Rays

X-rays are available and taken when necessary to help diagnose the cause of pain — ruling in or out fractures, arthritis and other degenerative conditions. Our doctors use their discretion to decide when X-rays will help.

Massage Therapy

Licensed massage therapy is available on-site to complement your chiropractic care — ask about scheduling a session with your adjustment.
