There's nothing mysterious about chiropractic. It's a natural method of health care that focuses on correcting the causes of physical problems, rather than just treating the symptoms. Chiropractic is based on this simple but powerful premise. With a normally functioning spine and healthy nerve system, your body is better able to heal itself. That's because your spine is the lifeline of your nervous system. It controls feeling, movement, and all function through your body.
Chiropractic treatments, called spinal adjustments, are comfortable, safe, and highly effective. People of all ages can receive chiropractic care to stay healthy, including children and the elderly. In addition to adjustments the doctor may use physiotherapies like EMS, ultrasound, traction, heat and/or ice to help relieve the symptoms that have prompted you to think about getting care. We also now offer spinal decompression too.
