Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments use gentle techniques to realign the spine and reduce nerve interference. This promotes natural healing, alleviates pain, and improves mobility for patients of all ages. By addressing structural imbalances, we help clients achieve better physical and emotional well-being through non-invasive, drug-free care.
Pediatric Care
Pediatric chiropractic care supports infants and children through developmental milestones and common health challenges. Gentle adjustments address birth trauma, improve sleep, and enhance nervous system function. We help young patients build resilience and maintain optimal health from infancy into childhood with a focus on safe, nurturing touch.
Pregnancy Support
Prenatal chiropractic care eases pregnancy discomforts and prepares the body for labor. Specialized adjustments balance the pelvis, reduce sciatica pain, and improve uterine positioning. Our approach supports maternal comfort, shorter labor times, and postpartum recovery while fostering a healthy environment for fetal development.
Biogeometric Integration
Biogeometric Integration combines structural adjustments with breathwork and soft tissue therapy to release deep tension patterns. This holistic method addresses physical and emotional stress, promoting systemic balance and self-awareness. BGI helps clients process stored trauma for lasting improvements in posture, energy, and overall wellness.
Webster Technique
The Webster Technique focuses on pelvic alignment to optimize fetal positioning and ease labor. By reducing intrauterine constraint, it supports safer deliveries and maternal comfort. This specialized adjustment enhances nervous system function and pelvic stability for expectant mothers seeking natural birth preparation.

Questions
What services do you offer for pregnant women?
We provide prenatal chiropractic care using the Webster Technique to balance the pelvis, ease discomfort, and prepare for labor. Adjustments help reduce sciatica, improve sleep, and support optimal fetal positioning for safer deliveries.
Is chiropractic care safe for infants?
Yes. Our gentle, non-force adjustments address birth trauma, improve sleep, and support nervous system development. We care for newborns as young as their first day using craniosacral therapy and light-touch techniques tailored to infants' needs.
What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit includes a health history review, spinal exam, and personalized adjustment. Our chiropractors will discuss your goals and create a care plan. The session lasts about an hour, with follow-ups typically 30 minutes in our open adjustment space.
How does Biogeometric Integration differ from traditional chiropractic?
BGI combines structural adjustments with breathwork and soft tissue therapy to address physical and energetic tension patterns. This holistic approach focuses on releasing stored trauma and improving systemic balance rather than just symptom relief.
Do you accept insurance?
