Acupuncture

Acupuncture and Chiropractic have a lot in common.  They both look on disease as being the result of an underlying "condition" within the body, such as hyperactivity, imbalance, toxicity, etc.  Correct the conditions within the body and the symptoms of a condition will also be gone.  If the body is out of balance due to any number of stressors, and is exhibiting symptoms, then it is wise to re-balance the body and eliminate the cause of the symptoms.  This philosophy of diagnosis and treatment runs in opposition to popular medicine or "allopathy", as portrayed by drug ads and programs on television, where the focus is on controlling the symptoms of sickness, like fever.  Acupuncture and Chiropractic represent a different view about what the human body is and how it functions.

 Corrective Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.

Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

Massage therapy offers a natural conservative treatment approach  that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is tailored to  meet the patient's condition and injury.
