Don’t Chiropractors just crack your back?!
There’s so much more to it than that.
The way I see it, my main focus as a chiropractor is to get you feeling better. Bottom line. If I at least do that, I am doing my job.
This means going beyond the simple adjustments. It means working the muscles, ligaments, blood flow, motor control and corrective exercise individually designed to get you to your specific goals.
Our Complimentary Consultation is a 'first date' of sorts where we get to learn more about each individual story and can help answer any questions to see if this relationship would be a good fit or not! No strings attached.
Read MoreBooks on the shelf right now include a lot of ‘self-help’ and personal growth selections but also some great anatomy/movement books that are VERY simple to read even if you don’t have a degree.

Read MoreWith fall apparently already in our rear-view mirror and winter already upon us, it’s an important reminder to stay active even as the colder weather hits us. A few quick ideas to keep moving are..
Set a timer on your phone to get up every hour and do 5-10 squats or lunges. You’d be surprised how many this will add up to every day for a week!
While the coffee is brewing in the morning, take a few minutes to breathe through your diaphragm and deep core consciously.
It’s still nice enough for a walk! Even if that means in your living room. Get up and walk/march/skip - it’s a fun activity to include the kids too!
If you have to shovel that beloved snow.. remember to take mini breaks and make it a fun workout. Try to work as hard as you can for 1 minute and then take 2 minutes off as ‘rest.’ Rinse and repeat for time!
Invest your time wisely. Prioritize your health. I’d rather see you for a longer duration of time once a week or once every couple weeks compared to 5 minute visits three times per week.End result? You get better. Fast. Oh, and you save time driving to and from the clinic! More time to enjoy your life!
