Services
Chiropractic Care
Our core chiropractic services use manual adjustments and instrument-assisted techniques to treat musculoskeletal conditions. We address neck/back pain, headaches, sciatica, and joint issues through personalized treatment plans that combine multiple approaches for optimal results. Patients receive education on posture, ergonomics, and exercises to support long-term wellness.
Maternal Health
Specialized chiropractic care for pregnant individuals focuses on pelvic alignment, nerve function, and pain management during pregnancy. The Webster Technique helps optimize fetal positioning while gentle adjustments alleviate back pain, sciatica, and joint discomfort. Our approach supports easier labor and postpartum recovery through non-invasive, drug-free treatments.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic treatments address common childhood conditions like earaches, colic, asthma symptoms, and growing pains. Using fingertip pressure and low-force tools, we correct spinal misalignments that may affect nervous system development. Our family-friendly office creates a calming environment for children to receive preventive care supporting overall wellness.
Craniosacral Technique
This gentle, hands-on method evaluates and enhances craniosacral system function by releasing restrictions in the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid. We use CST to treat migraines, chronic neck pain, stress-related disorders, and neurological conditions through subtle manipulations that promote self-correction and relaxation.
Flexion/Distraction
A specialized table-assisted technique that decompresses spinal discs to relieve back/neck pain, herniated discs, and sciatica. This non-surgical approach creates negative pressure in discs to promote rehydration and nutrient flow while reducing nerve compression through controlled, repetitive movements tailored to patient comfort.
