Chiropractic Care
It’s no secret we put our bodies through a lot mentally and physically.
If you think about all the times you have fallen, the repetitive motions, or amount of time spent sitting and the mental and emotional stress we bear, it’s common to have aches and pains from time to time.
BUT these pains are one of the last things to show up, so we are experiencing dysfunction long before we FEEL it! And often it is one of the first things to go away. Dysfunction throughout the spine can cause painful compensations in the body. Chiropractors are trained to find areas of dysfunction and adjusting the spine to help alleviate your symptoms and improve the body’s function.
The brain controls every system in our body. Any stressors to the nervous system can decrease the brain’s ability to control the body accurately and can result in dysfunction in the form of: Pain and tension, poor decision making, lack of sleep, distractions/”busy brain”, and anxiety.
Regular adjustments not only decrease pain, but lower the stress response so the brain can better control the body functions.
We examine the entire body, not just areas of complaint, to help your body work its best as a whole.Through a detailed health history and orthopedic testing we are able to make a plan that’s right for you.

Dry Needling
The use of solid needles that don’t contain medication with the goal of decreasing pain and tension and improving blood flow to promote healing. Unlike acupuncture, which focuses on meridian points, dry needling is focused on sensitized nerve endings and trigger points, or knots in the muscles. Many of these points align with meridian points, but dry needling tends to penetrate deeper into soft tissue than acupuncture.
May notice improvements in pain, range of motion, function, tension, sleep and stress.
Can be done in most areas of the body including neck, low back, and extremities.
Some conditions that it helps with: neck and back pain, joint pain in the extremities, tennis elbow, golfers elbow, sprain, strain.
