Chiropractic care takes a holistic approach to health, focusing on the assessment, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions—especially those related to the spine. By restoring proper alignment and function to the body’s nervous system and musculoskeletal structure, chiropractic care aims to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support overall well-being.

The cornerstone of this approach is the chiropractic adjustment (also known as spinal manipulation). This procedure involves applying controlled force to specific joints in the spine or other areas of the body to restore motion, relieve discomfort, and enhance physical function. Adjustments may be performed manually with the hands or with specialized instruments such as the Activator Method, which delivers gentle, precise corrections through a handheld device.

Beyond adjustments, treatment may also include soft tissue therapies like the Graston Technique. This method uses uniquely designed instruments to break down scar tissue and adhesions, helping improve tissue flexibility, decrease pain, and promote healing.

Every patient begins with a thorough assessment, including medical history and physical examination. From there, we develop a personalized treatment plan that may combine chiropractic care with complementary therapies. Patients also receive guidance on home care strategies—such as targeted exercises, posture correction, and nutritional recommendations—to support long-term recovery and sustained health.
