  • Affordable

    Our prices are extremely competitive- especially when compared to the cost of surgery or physical therapy.

  • Natural

    Chiropractic care is a completely natural, holistic, and drug-free approach to your healthcare.

  • Effective

    A multitude of research has shown chiropractic care to be even more effective than NSAIDs or physical therapy.

Hands-on relief.

Adjustments are done using a thrust with the hands and by putting the particular area of the body in a position at its end range of motion so that the joints are more easily moved. This force often results in a “pop” sound from the joint and a sense of relief in the area being manipulated.

  • Spinal Manipulations

    An “adjustment” or spinal manipulation is used to treat a vertebral joint or segment of vertebral joints which have become stuck in an irritating or compensatory position.
