Chiropractic Services
Many people think that chiropractic is only for your back. After all, chiropractors do work primarily on your back. However, chiropractic is about having a healthy spine and nervous system, allowing your body to be as healthy as possible.
Chiropractic care can help restore function, relieve pain and get you back in the swing of your daily activities. Chiropractors believe wellness is the state where your body is free of interruption of interference to any part of your nerves, enabling you full enjoyment of life.
A chiropractor will discover any problems that are interfering with your health and on each visit we will work with you to reduce them. After a chiropractic adjustment your body may be better able to heal itself. This, in turn, aids your body in maintaining optimum health.
Most chiropractic patients understand that you are better off taking care of yourself before things begin to break down, similar to how you brush your teeth every day. Prevention is the key! So yes, in addition to relieving aches and pains your chiropractor is a wellness provider.
We invite you to discover the benefits of natural wellness care.

How do Cold Lasers work?
When laser light interacts with tissue, it causes certain photochemical reactions to occur and stimulates natural accelerated healing. It stimulates tissue repair at the cellular level, reduces the formation of scar tissue and reduces pain and swelling caused by joint sprains, strains and arthritis.
Can Cold Laser Therapy be harmful?
No, Cold Lasers used for tissue stimulation are not strong enough to damage cells; so even if they were used 24 hours a day, they would not be able to permanently harm you.
How long does the therapy take?
Each treatment time will vary from as little as 2 minutes to as long as 20 minutes. The total number of treatments required varies between 6 to 24 depending on the body’s natural healing rate and the severity of the condition.

Your feet are the foundation of your body. Custom foot orthotics support your feet, helping them function in a more efficient manner. By stabilizing and balancing your feet, orthotics may enhance your body’s performance and efficiency, reduce pain, and contribute to your total body wellness.
