Services
Full-Spine Adjustments
Utilizing Diversified and Gonstead techniques, we deliver precise adjustments to restore proper spinal alignment and nervous system function. This treatment addresses subluxations that cause pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall wellness through targeted manual therapy.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Our non-surgical decompression therapy uses the Triton DTS table to relieve disc herniation symptoms by creating negative pressure in spinal discs. This process promotes nutrient flow and disc rehydration while reducing nerve compression and associated radiating pain.
Extremity Adjustments
We treat non-spinal joints including shoulders, knees, and wrists to restore proper motion and function. This specialized care addresses extremity misalignments that cause pain, limited range of motion, and musculoskeletal imbalances affecting daily activities.
Muscle Stimulation
Electrotherapy treatments complement chiropractic adjustments by reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and accelerating healing. This modality helps manage acute pain, decrease inflammation, and enhance recovery from musculoskeletal injuries through controlled electrical impulses.
X-Ray Imaging
On-site digital X-ray capabilities allow precise assessment of spinal alignment, disc space, and joint health. These diagnostic images help identify structural issues, track treatment progress, and develop targeted care plans while providing patients with visual understanding of their spinal condition.
