Chiropractic techniques
and therapies
Chiropractic care is more than adjustments or spinal manipulations.
We use a variety of treatment modalities to help your body heal itself
and let return you to a healthy, pain-free life.
We also will make recommendations for other health resources that
may increase your health and wellbeing.

the spine, including the extremities

only where neural defecits are found

with drop-piece to adjust the upper neck
