Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating neuromuscular conditions through spinal adjustments and extremity alignments. By correcting subluxations, we alleviate nerve pressure, addressing back pain, neck pain, and sciatica. Patients benefit from improved mobility and reduced discomfort through non-invasive techniques tailored to individual needs, including manual manipulation and activator methods.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine at Vanderloo Chiropractic targets chronic conditions like autoimmune disorders and digestive issues by identifying root causes. Using advanced testing and nutritional counseling, we create personalized plans to restore balance and optimize health. This approach emphasizes natural therapies and lifestyle changes to address hormonal imbalances, fatigue, and metabolic disorders.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy uses low-level light to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation in injured tissues. This non-thermal treatment accelerates recovery for conditions like tendonitis, arthritis, and soft tissue injuries. Patients experience pain relief and improved function without invasive procedures, making it ideal for chronic pain management and post-surgical recovery.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave therapy delivers acoustic waves to injured areas, promoting cellular repair and increased blood flow. Effective for plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff injuries, and chronic pain, this FDA-cleared treatment offers non-surgical relief. Patients report reduced pain and enhanced mobility after a series of sessions, with minimal side effects.
Therapeutic Exercise
Custom therapeutic exercise programs strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and prevent re-injury. Guided by our doctors, patients perform targeted movements to support spinal health and recovery from sports injuries or postural imbalances. These exercises complement adjustments, ensuring long-term stability and functional improvement.
