Gonstead Technique

The Gonstead technique is one of the most precise chiropractic methods at our practice. This advanced approach involves detailed spinal analysis and specific adjustment protocols that target individual vertebral misalignments with exceptional accuracy. Unlike generalized approaches, the Gonstead technique provides meticulous, patient-focused treatment.

Spinal Manipulation Is As Effective As Standard Medical Care For Spine Pain

The Gonstead Technique applies that research-backed effectiveness with a degree of precision that few other methods match.

“SMT may be as effective as other recommended therapies for the management of non-specific and chronic primary spine pain, including standard medical care or physical therapy.”

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy offers a non-invasive solution for patients suffering from herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and chronic back pain. Our advanced technology gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure that helps retract bulging or herniated disc material and promotes natural healing while reducing nerve compression.

Disc Herniation Affects 5 To 20 Adults Per 1,000 Every Year

Many of those patients avoid surgery entirely when non-invasive options like spinal decompression are pursued early and consistently.

“Lumbar disc herniation is relatively common, with 5 to 20 cases per 1000 adults annually.”

Massage Therapy

Our massage therapy services complement our chiropractic treatments, offering holistic healing for patients seeking complete musculoskeletal care. We offer a variety of massage options such as deep tissue, prenatal, and therapeutic techniques designed to address specific physical conditions and promote overall wellness.

Massage Therapy Outperforms Inactive Therapies For Neck And Shoulder Pain

Our licensed massage therapists work directly alongside the chiropractic team so each patient’s treatment plan works in concert, not in isolation.

“A 2013 review of 12 studies (757 total participants) found that massage therapy was more helpful for both neck and shoulder pain than inactive therapies but was not more effective than other active therapies.”

Pain Management

Chronic pain can significantly impact your quality of life. We offer pain management strategies that address root causes instead of just masking symptoms. Our team approach combines chiropractic adjustments, targeted therapies, and patient education to develop lasting pain relief.

51.6 Million U.S. Adults Live With Chronic Pain

Treating the structural source of that pain, not just the symptoms, is how we work toward relief that holds over time.

“During 2021, an estimated 20.9% of U.S. adults (51.6 million persons) experienced chronic pain, and 6.9% (17.1 million persons) experienced high-impact chronic pain (i.e., chronic pain that results in substantial restriction to daily activities).”

TMJ & TMD Treatments

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause significant discomfort and affect your daily life. Our specialized TMJ and TMD treatments provide targeted relief for patients experiencing jaw pain and headaches. We employ advanced chiropractic techniques to address muscular imbalances and joint misalignments contributing to these conditions.

TMJ Disorders Cost The U.S. An Estimated $4 Billion Annually

Despite how common these conditions are, many patients go undiagnosed for years, which allows the dysfunction to spread beyond the jaw into the neck and shoulders.

“TMJDs are the second most commonly occurring musculoskeletal conditions resulting in pain and disability (after chronic low back pain), affecting approximately 5 to 12% of the population, with an annual cost estimated at $4 billion.”

What to Expect During Your Visit

Your first visit includes a complete consultation covering your health history, symptoms, and treatment goals. We’ll then perform a thorough examination assessing your spine, posture, range of motion, and discomfort areas.

If needed, we’ll take on-site x-rays to get a clear picture of your spinal structure and identify any underlying issues. This diagnostic information allows us to create a personalized treatment plan specifically designed for your condition and health concerns.

More Than Half Of U.S. Adults Have Already Seen A Chiropractor

“More than 50% of US adults have sought care from a chiropractor and about 30% of those with spinal pain in the United States have used chiropractic care.”
