Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments use multiple techniques to correct spinal misalignments and improve nervous system function. We employ Thompson Terminal Point, Activator Methods, and Gonstead analysis to address neck pain, back pain, and various musculoskeletal conditions. Each adjustment is tailored to the patient's specific needs and comfort level, with options for manual or instrument-assisted techniques.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture services utilize traditional Chinese medicine principles combined with modern technology for pain management and wellness. Our certified practitioners use state-of-the-art meridian testing to identify energy imbalances and develop targeted treatment plans. This service complements chiropractic care for conditions like chronic pain, stress, and post-injury recovery.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy addresses disc-related problems in the neck and lower back using specialized traction tables. This non-surgical treatment gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. It's particularly effective for sciatica, herniated discs, and carpal tunnel syndrome when combined with traditional chiropractic adjustments.
Sacro Occipital Technique
SOT focuses on normalizing the relationship between the pelvis and skull using gravity-assisted adjustments. This technique improves craniosacral rhythm and spinal mechanics through specific blocking placements. It's particularly beneficial for headaches, low back pain, and postural imbalances when integrated with other chiropractic treatments.
Gonstead Analysis
Gonstead analysis combines full-spine X-rays with heat-sensing instruments for precise spinal adjustments. This technique identifies subluxations through detailed biomechanical assessment and provides targeted corrections using specific manual thrusts. It's ideal for patients seeking comprehensive spinal evaluations and structured treatment plans for long-term wellness.
