Chiropractic is a treatment provided by a licensed doctor of chiropractic (a chiropractor) to restore ideal joint function and alleviate pain in the musculoskeletal system. This can be anything from back pain, headaches, neck pain, or pain and stiffness in any of your body's joints.
The manipulation and adjustment of the spine relieves pain by realigning and relieving muscle strain so that irritated nerves can be freed of pressure. It also restores joints and muscles to a better level of mobility, without pain.
We treat a wide range of conditions like: Headaches and injuries to the neck, shoulder, upper, middle and low back, hips, and all the extremities.
By restoring/improving pain-free range of motion, chiropractic care helps both acute and chronic conditions so you can feel better and get back to work or doing the activities you love.
Actually, the treatments usually feel good! There will be relief of pressure in your areas of pain and you may feel more relaxed and less "tight" after your appointment. If exercise is part of your therapy, you may experience some mild muscular discomfort the day after you exercise, but this is easily relieved with an application of ice.
If you have recent x-rays, CT’s or other lab results on the area of concern, please bring those for your first visit. If you do not have any recent images and they need to be taken, we can do so on site. The doctors will determine if you do or do not need images; it is a case-by-case decision, when clinically warranted.
We provide a warm, friendly and welcoming environment. We take the time to listen to you and take great care to help you achieve the goals you want to reach with our experienced and expert treatment.

This term refers to a misalignment of the spine caused by a dysfunction of the joints of the spine. If the spinal column is not functioning properly, the nerves around it can become overly excited or inhibited. This may be caused by phisycal trauma or even stress. These nerves serve various areas of the body and can present with a broad range of symptoms. If you have had subluxation for a long time, it may take several sessions to restore proper function to the spine which will allow the nerves to heal.
Yes, we do take workers’ compensation claims.
