Our Services & Products
Why Chiropractic Care?
People go to chiropractors for a variety of reasons. As we stated already, some go for symptomatic relief of a condition (Relief Care). Others are interested in having the cause of the problem, as well as the symptoms corrected and relieved (Corrective Care). Still others want whatever is malfunctioning in their bodies brought to the highest state of health possible with chiropractic care (Preventative Care).
These are the three Phases of Chiropractic Care.
- Preventative Care – Life Enhancement and Wellness Care
- Corrective Care – Removing the cause and Remodeling Soft Tissue
- Relief Care – Band-Aid Care Only
Why Orthotics?
We offer custom made orthotics, which can help stabilize your spinal condition and address many foot and other musculoskeletal complaints. See GaitScan™ in Additional Services below.
Additional Services

GaitScan™
GaitScan™ is state of the art hardware and software that helps our Doctor assess and analyze your feet. This new technology has the ability to scan the foot. As you walk across the pressure plate, tiny sensors capture the distribution of pressure of your foot over time. The 2D and 3D visual representations combined with our Doctor’s experience and knowledge reveals abnormal foot function which may affect your feet and/or other parts of your body. If appropriate orthotics may be recommended for your particular health condition. read more»

Massage Therapy
In combination with chiropractic care, massage therapy can help improve circulation and muscle tone.
We recommend massage in combination with your chiropractic care. While chiropractic focuses on the relationship between the spine and its impact on the nervous system, massage focuses on the 650 muscles of the body. Both disciplines work together to help keep the body in proper alignment, balance and function. read more»
