Chiropractic
Chiropractic patients can rely on a safe, effective and natural approach to managing pain and other health-related issues. Chiropractors can diagnose and treat a multitude of physical conditions that cause musculoskeletal or nerve pain, however, most patients initially visit us looking for relief from back pain.
Chiropractic Consultation
When you see a chiropractor for the first time, they will do a detailed assessment of your health. Your chiropractor will ask you a few questions to establish an overall picture of your health and determine whether chiropractic care is appropriate for your condition.
The consultation includes a thorough assessment of physical and neurological health, a full spinal screening, and a posture check. Chiropractic care is covered by all major health insurance plans.
The symptoms and conditions that can be assessed and treated include but are not limited to: back pain, neck pain, sciatica, chronic headaches, physical injuries, and all kinds of spinal conditions.

Chiropractic Treatment
A natural, safe and effective approach to health.
The main goal of chiropractic is to discover and treat the causes of physical problems, rather than deal with the symptoms.
Chiropractors examine the spine, identify and correct vertebral conditions with specific adjustments, thus promoting the body’s innate ability to self-heal and operate with the maximum efficiency. Chiropractic is a drug-free, non-surgical science.
Chiropractic adjustments, also known as manual therapy, are usually the central part of chiropractic treatment. The chiropractic adjustment is a therapeutic manipulation that uses controlled force, leverage, direction, amplitude, and velocity directed at specific joints. Under the hands of a qualified chiropractor, it is a safe but highly effective way of easing joint and spine stiffness.
