Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic care addresses musculoskeletal disorders through manual adjustments that restore joint function and nervous system efficiency. Dr. Bretz employs hands-on techniques and specialized instruments to treat spine-related conditions, offering relief for over 22 million Americans annually. This non-invasive approach promotes natural healing without medication.
Spinal Decompression
This non-surgical traction therapy alleviates neck and back pain by gently stretching the spine to relieve disc pressure. Our protocol includes 30-40 sessions over 2-3 months with complementary therapies like cold laser and home care supplements. Ideal for herniated discs and chronic spinal conditions, it requires patient commitment for optimal results.
Acupuncture
Certified acupuncture treatments stimulate healing by inserting fine needles at specific points to improve energy flow. This ancient practice effectively manages pain, reduces inflammation, and promotes relaxation by activating the body's natural painkillers and enhancing blood circulation for accelerated recovery.
Nutrition Response Testing
Karen Bretz's specialized testing identifies nutritional deficiencies through muscle response analysis. This kinesiology-based method determines personalized dietary changes and whole-food supplement regimens to address root causes of dysfunction, supporting long-term wellness through targeted metabolic improvements.
ChiroThin Weight Loss
This 6-week program combines real-food nutrition, targeted supplements, and behavioral coaching to achieve 20-35lb loss. The structured plan includes metabolic support through silver/gold supplement tiers and personalized guidance to establish sustainable healthy eating habits for lasting weight management success.
