A whole person and holistic patient approach
Each person is evaluated with consideration given to their unique body and life. Many things influence care, including; how injuries happen, the state of one’s past and current physical health, stress level, lifestyle practices, nutrition, medications, sleep, health goals and more.
Finding and treating the root cause is as important as treating symptoms. People are complicated and often a step by step approach is required to restore health.
We believe having a chiropractic physician on your health care team is as important as having other health practitioners. Chiropractic is a specialized natural medicine for the spine, extremities and other articular joints and it has profound connections and influence on the nervous system. Chiropractic care is comprehensive and includes care for things like headaches, TMJD, osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, bed wetting, bursitis, tendonitis, plantar fascitis, tennis elbow, and more.
Who We Treat
Spinal hygiene is much like dental hygiene. Brushing and flossing the teeth is likened to exercise and stretching for the spine. It’s important to get regular check ups for potential problems. The sooner problems are corrected the less invasive and expensive treatment is required. Trying to improve things once damage has occurred is often irreversible. Teeth can be replaced, spines cannot. Spinal care is essential and necessary. Regular care is recommended. It’s never too late to get started or checked.
Short term care or long term correction?
Patient’s individual needs are important and sometimes you need a doctor who will talk to you honestly. Conversations about posture, exercise, diet, medical conditions, possible food allergies and smoking can make treatment go smoother and last longer.
You want a doctor who can understand your urgency to get well. If you are a hunter training for deer season, a skier getting ready for snow, or the head of household who doesn’t want to miss work your health goals matter.
Your personal long term goals are as important as making the swelling go down.
Chiropractic includes treatment for specific painful conditions, as well as, long term active and supportive care for aging gracefully, pregnancy, sports enhancement and lifetime wellness.

Step 1: History & Examination. Ask. Listen. Observe. Determine the cause of your problem.
A thorough history and examination will be conducted at your first appointment or for any new injury or flare up. Information needs to be communicated and considered to determine if treatment can be initiated or if further diagnostic tests like x-rays, MRI or blood work are necessary.
Some people are good candidates for traditional chiropractic manipulation and treatment, other people need a more comprehensive care plan. The intensity of the problem and complexity of the individual will determine the best care for your condition.
Step 2: Chiropractic Care
Treatment may be straightforward or complex. Your goals and circumstances will be considered before proceeding with treatment. Often factors like age, arthritis, diet, exercise, smoking, medications, and even attitude can make improvements go quicker or slower. Addressing these lifestyle factors are part of the overall treatment plan and goals for outcomes of care.
Step 3: Healing. Pain relief and healing take time. Injuries most go through stages repair remodeling to heal completely.
Your roll in healing matters. Our bodies are the cumulative expression of our genetics, the life we currently live, the life we have lived and our influences internally and externally. As a product of our environment, we can greatly influence our recovery by improving and stabilizing our environment physically, emotionally, and chemically. In order for tissues to heal they need resources and support. The body may need adjustments, soft tissue work, rest, rehabilitative exercises, stress relief, good nutrition and more. Chiropractic care is a corrective process just as maintaining good health the sum total of many healthy choices and behaviors.
