Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care addresses musculoskeletal conditions through spinal adjustments and manual therapies. We treat back pain, neck pain, and joint issues using evidence-based techniques. Patients receive personalized treatment plans that may include flexion/distraction therapy and directional preference exercises to improve mobility and reduce nerve irritation.
Massage Therapy
Licensed massage therapists provide targeted treatments to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Sessions focus on myofascial release and trigger point therapy to address pain from chronic conditions or acute injuries. This therapy complements chiropractic adjustments by enhancing soft tissue recovery and reducing inflammation.
Sciatica Treatment
Specialized care for sciatica combines spinal decompression and targeted adjustments to alleviate nerve compression. We use flexion/distraction tables to create directional preference movements that reduce disc herniation symptoms. Treatment plans include rehabilitative exercises to prevent recurrence and improve functional mobility.
Pediatric Care
Gentle chiropractic adjustments for children address developmental concerns and musculoskeletal imbalances. Our care supports optimal nervous system function through age-appropriate techniques using activator tools or light pressure. We monitor developmental milestones while addressing issues like latching difficulties and ear infections.
Prenatal Care
Webster-certified chiropractors provide prenatal adjustments to optimize pelvic alignment and nervous system function. Care focuses on creating ideal space for fetal positioning while reducing maternal discomfort. Techniques support easier labor by improving pelvic biomechanics and reducing nerve interference during pregnancy.
