Allergy Desensitization
This non-invasive technique reprograms the body's response to allergens using muscle testing and energy field manipulation. Patients typically experience lasting relief after one session for most allergens, with up to three allergens addressed per appointment. The method, developed from Total Body Modification principles, has shown a 95% success rate in clinical practice while avoiding traditional allergy treatment side effects.
Chiropractic Alignment
Gentle spinal adjustments using Motion Palpation and the Arthrostim instrument restore joint function without forceful manipulation. This approach improves posture, reduces pain, and enhances nervous system function while addressing muscle imbalances that contribute to chronic issues. Treatments focus on long-term correction rather than temporary symptom relief through precise, targeted interventions.
Laser Treatment
The FDA-cleared Erchonia FX 635 Medical Laser provides non-thermal pain relief and inflammation reduction at the cellular level. Clinically proven for conditions like chronic back pain and plantar fasciitis, this treatment stimulates natural healing processes without side effects. Sessions complement other therapies while minimizing reliance on pharmaceutical pain management solutions.
Emotional Release
This technique permanently alleviates emotional trauma by addressing energetic patterns stored in the body. Patients experience relief from PTSD, anxiety, and chronic stress through meridian tapping that disconnects negative emotions from triggering memories. The process works independently of conscious belief systems while producing measurable improvements in emotional wellbeing and physical health markers.
Lyme Disease Protocol
A 3-6 month protocol targets Lyme disease and co-infections through energy system harmonization. Patients typically see symptom reduction within weeks as the body's natural defenses are reactivated. Regular evaluations every 2-3 weeks track progress while addressing secondary complications like organ weakness that develop during chronic infection, with most completing treatment in 4-5 months.

Questions
What makes your allergy desensitization technique different?
Our method uses muscle testing and energy field manipulation developed from Total Body Modification principles, with 95% success rate and lasting results after one session for most allergens.
Do you accept insurance or Medicare?
We don't accept insurance or Medicare for chiropractic care, but patients 65+ can receive non-chiropractic treatments. Payment is required at time of service.
How long are treatment sessions?
Allergy desensitization takes 15-30 minutes per allergen. Chiropractic adjustments typically last 15-30 minutes, while laser therapy sessions range from 10-20 minutes depending on treatment area.
What conditions respond best to cold laser therapy?
The FDA-cleared Erchonia FX 635 laser shows best results for chronic pain conditions like low back pain, plantar fasciitis, and soft tissue injuries with inflammation components.
How does emotional release therapy work?
This technique identifies stored emotional trauma patterns in the body's energy field. Patients tap meridian points while recalling issues, gradually eliminating negative emotional responses without reliving trauma.
What's included in the Lyme disease protocol?
The 3-6 month program combines energy system harmonization, regular evaluations every 2-3 weeks, and targeted interventions to address both active infection and secondary complications like organ weakness.
