What is a Chiropractor?
Your Musculoskeletal Experts
Chiropractors are licensed doctors who specialize in the nervous system and musculoskeletal system (muscles, bones, and joints). They focus on conditions affecting these systems, like pain, stiffness, and mobility issues.
Chiropractors’ primary treatment method involves manual adjustments to the spine and joints. These adjustments aim to improve alignment and function, promoting the body's natural healing process. Additionally, our chiropractors may recommend exercise programs, massage therapy, spinal decompression, orthotics, cold laser therapy, taping, electrical stimulation, supplements, and nutritional advice to support your overall well-being.

Chiropractic Care focuses on the idea that spinal alignment is linked to overall health. Chiropractors believe the body can heal itself naturally, with the right support. The word "chiropractic" itself comes from Greek words meaning "hand" and "practice," referring to the hands-on treatments they provide. Chiropractors use manual adjustments of the spine to improve health, aiming to avoid surgery or medication. Some may also prescribe exercises or recommend other therapies like nutrition counseling.
While chiropractors are well-known for spinal adjustments, they aren't the only healthcare professionals who offer this treatment. Osteopathic doctors, physical therapists, and even some specially trained medical doctors can perform spinal manipulation as well. The goal of spinal manipulation is twofold: to relieve pain and improve flexibility in stiff or tight areas of the spine. There are various techniques, but generally, the practitioner applies a controlled force (sometimes with a quick thrust) to a specific joint in your back or neck, using their hands or a special tool. Alternatively, they might use a rhythmic, non-thrusting motion to enhance movement in your spine and pelvis. Special tables can also be used to aid in the effectiveness of the adjustment.
Message Therapy is a versatile practice that can be used for two main purposes: improving general well-being and managing specific health conditions.
During a massage session, a therapist applies pressure and movements to your soft tissues, like muscles, tendons, and skin. This practice has roots in many cultures around the world, dating back centuries.
In fact, massage was one of the earliest methods used to alleviate pain. The term encompasses a wide range of techniques. In Western countries, Swedish massage (also called classical massage) is the most common type. This foundational style forms the core of most massage therapist training programs. Beyond Swedish massage, there are many other specialized approaches, such as sports massage, stretching, and other styles.
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a treatment option that uses motorized traction to potentially alleviate back pain. During this procedure, the spine is gently stretched, which helps to alter the forces and position of your vertebrae. This creates a negative pressure within the discs, the gel-like cushions between your spinal bones.
This negative pressure may help bulging or herniated discs retract, relieving pressure on nerves and other nearby structures. Improved circulation of fluids, oxygen, and nutrients is also believed to be promoted within the discs, aiding the healing process.
During treatment, the chiropractor positions the Activator on a specific joint in your spine or extremity. They apply a light pressure followed by a quick thrust with the instrument's head. This thrust is precise and controlled thanks to the small, fast movement of the rubberized head.
Because of this controlled motion, you'll typically remain still throughout the treatment, unlike some manual chiropractic adjustments. In other words, it is a chiropractic technique that utilizes a handheld instrument to deliver precise adjustments to the spine. We usually combine the activator method with other manual techniques.
Diversified Technique is the most widely used chiropractic method. It involves applying quick, controlled thrusts (high velocity, low amplitude) to realign and improve movement in your spine.
A popping sound may sometimes occur during these adjustments as gas escapes from the joints. This versatile technique can be used on various joints throughout your body, with a focus on spinal adjustments. The chiropractor will position you in different ways to effectively target specific areas. The diversified technique is used to address joint dysfunction, increase mobility, and reduce pain, making it suitable for a wide range of conditions.
Cold Laser Therapy or Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is a treatment that uses light to trigger cellular changes. Low-powered lasers deliver light particles (photons) that are absorbed by cells, leading to potential therapeutic benefits. Often referred to as cold laser therapy, LLLT has been used for many years to manage pain.
These lasers typically have a wavelength of 600 to 1000 nanometers and emit continuous low-level light to promote pain reduction and healing. Research has shown promise for LLLT's ability to provide pain relief and reduce inflammation, with supporting evidence from both lab studies and clinical trials.
Custom orthotics help with correcting alignment and may be a suggestion for your chiropractic care treatment. Prescription orthotics are specially designed shoe inserts made just for you.
Unlike generic inserts, they perfectly match the curves of your feet and how you walk. We will scan your feet; our chiropractor will address your unique needs and any foot problems you may have when creating your custom orthotics.

Electronic Stimulation - also known as electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) or e-stim, is a technique used by chiropractors to target specific areas of the body. Electronic stimulation works by delivering gentle electrical currents through electrodes attached to your skin. These electrical pulses stimulate muscle contractions, mimicking the way your brain naturally sends signals to your muscles.
Kinesio Taping is a versatile tool that can be applied in different ways to provide support, improve movement efficiency, and even help prevent injuries. Its elasticity allows it to assist tissues by promoting proper function and movement. This can be helpful for both injury prevention and recovery.
Kinesio tape is used by chiropractors alongside manual therapy and rehab exercises to address various aches and pains. From the spine to ankles, Kinesio tape can potentially benefit anyone, from high school athletes to professionals, as long as they don't have adhesive allergies.
Corrective exercises are a key tool used by chiropractors to help you recover from injuries and enhance your body's overall function. They combine elements of physical therapy and fitness training to address specific issues within your musculoskeletal system, the network of your muscles and bones. These exercises often target imbalances or weaknesses that may be contributing to pain or limitations.
Corrective exercises are usually gentle and performed slowly, often under the guidance of a chiropractor or other qualified healthcare professional and may focus on strengthening, stretching, and/or balance. This ensures they are tailored to your specific needs and are performed safely and effectively.
Spinal adjustments are a well-known aspect of chiropractic care, but many chiropractors offer a more comprehensive approach to well-being. We understand the significant impact that nutrition has on overall health, making us valuable partners in your quest for better health. Chiropractors can provide personalized guidance on nutrition and suggest supplements to complement your chiropractic care and empower you to take charge of your health from a holistic perspective.
While chiropractic care is often associated with spinal adjustments, many chiropractors take a holistic approach to well-being. This includes recognizing the significant role that nutrition plays in overall health. Chiropractors can be valuable partners in your journey towards achieving your health goals by providing personalized nutritional guidance and supplement recommendations.
