- Deep Tissue MassageWe all know that we are what we eat and also know that the quality of processed food results in many health problems. As part of our comprehensive approach to health we recommend deep tissue purification/cleanse at once per year. After evaluation of most of the detox programs we have selected an excellent three week purification program from Standard Process. Of all the purification programs we have tried this one is the most “user friendly” and effective. It is all about internal cleansing and detoxification of your body. Think of it as “spring cleaning” for your insides. It requires making new, healthier choices for you. You’ll learn to refrain from eating fast foods, processed convenience foods and sugar-laden snacks, which place an unnecessary load on your body. Instead you’ll learn to turn to whole, unprocessed, preservative-free foods, lots of pure water, tasty shakes and whole food supplements. While this is not a weight loss program, you’re also likely to shed some extra weight.
- Chiropractic AdjustmentsAs a chiropractic clinic, the cornerstone of our treatment programs is the chiropractic spinal adjustment. The spine can be corrected in many ways that include manual (by hand), table assisted or instrument adjusting or manipulation. Our office provides all these techniques in order to best meet our patient’s needs and wants. In this high volume clinic, we clearly see patterns as to what “works the best” with the greatest number of patients. Three out of four patients prefer instrument adjusting as they are very quick, gentle and effective and do not require the twisting or popping of the joint that many associate with the chiropractic adjustment. In fact, after most people have had a skilled and talented instrument correction, they do not want to be adjusted by hand. One out of four of our patients prefer manual adjusting; they just like the physicality and the way it feels and with some it works better. Each treatment plan is designed specifically for the patient and the adjusting technique best suited to the patient’s needs and wants is expertly delivered. We have the adjusting bases covered no matter what you want!

- Nutritional Consultation
- Manipulation Therapy
- Therapeutic ExerciseAs a full spectrum clinic we also provide our patients who will benefit from physiotherapy with electric muscle stimulation, therapeutic exercise, sophisticated robotic soft tissue massage and non-surgical spinal disc decompression. The electric muscle stimulation or interferential current is very effective in treating muscle spasm, pain and inflammation. Therapeutic exercise is helpful in re-establishing muscle balance, strength and in improving range of motion. Our advanced non-surgical spinal disc decompression system allows decompression of disc bulging or herniation in all three axes and has been shown to allow three of four patients to avoid spinal surgery. In one of four of those patients the disc damage is already so profound the surgery becomes inevitable.
- AcupunctureOne of the most exciting additions to our office is a computerized laser acupuncture system controlled by biofeedback called Neurological Stress Reduction Therapy. It works by measuring the body’s galvanic skin response (exactly like a lie detector) to various substances that you may have sensitivity to and then desensitizing the body though the acupuncture/immune system using the laser. While it does not “cure” an allergy, it can dramatically reduce the body’s reaction to it. The laser can also be used to stimulate tissue healing and provide rapid and drug-free pain control. We have even seen poison ivy clear up within two or three days without the need for medication. The laser has also been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms of fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome and migraine headaches. This Neurological Stress Reduction Therapy is an important part of our comprehensive approach to serving our patient’s drug-free health care needs.
