By tapping into your body’s ability to heal itself, chiropractic care seeks to discover, alleviate and remove the obstacles in your way to bring balance back to the body.
A profession that has roots in alternative health care and has continued to flourish and evolve since 1895, chiropractic care aims to diagnose, treat and prevent a variety of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions and the effects of these conditions on the function of the nervous system, body biomechanics and overall general health. This is accomplished by skilled hands through specifically targeted adjustments to joints in the spine, as well as the extremities.

Pregnancy places unique stress on the body as the pelvis widens, ligaments loosen, and the spine adapts to support a growing baby. These physical shifts can lead to discomfort, but chiropractic care during this time can help maintain alignment, reduce tension, and support optimal nerve function for both mother and baby. Regular care throughout pregnancy and postpartum can also aid in recovery, mobility, and overall wellbeing.
We also recommend chiropractic checks for infants and children, as the birth process can place significant stress on a baby’s neck and spine—especially when interventions like vacuum, forceps, or cesarean delivery are involved.
Developed by Dr. Roger Turner, CATS is a specific chiropractic technique to locate and correct misalignment of the bones of the skull that may have resulted from falls, accidents, blows to the head and difficult births. Cranial misalignment can be the cause of several symptoms including, headaches, TMJ dysfunction, blurred vision, ringing in the ear, altered coordination, speech difficulties and more.

Post-concussion chiropractic care is an effective and promising option suitable for individuals who have undergone a traumatic brain injury such as a concussion. This condition can cause several symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, nausea, and vision problems, which can lead to long-term complications if left untreated. However, the good news is that chiropractic care can provide a natural and non-invasive approach to managing these symptoms and promoting healing.
Our chiropractors are well-equipped with the expertise and knowledge to address the specific needs of each patient. They may leverage a range of techniques such as spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitation exercises to optimize the function of the spine and nervous system. By doing so, patients can have a better chance of experiencing a full recovery and effectively minimizing the chances of long-term complications that might arise from untreated concussions.
It’s important to remember that post-concussion chiropractic care is a vital component of a comprehensive care plan that could potentially facilitate a rapid recovery from a concussion.
