Chiropractic is a natural and conservative form of health care, offering an alternative to medication and surgery for many conditions. Chiropractic care is based on the very simple premise – that good health depends on a normal functioning nervous system, and the health of our spines play a most important role.
Treatment
Chiropractors use a hands-on approach to treating and preventing disorders of the musculoskeletal system as well as the effects of those disorders. Chiropractic treatment is also especially beneficial in treating auto accident and work-related injuries.
Chiropractic treats the following acute and chronic conditions, including workers compensation and auto accident injuries:
HEADACHES AND MIGRAINES

The initial visit involves a complete orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examination. Treatment consists of manual manipulation of the spine to relieve pressure on nerves, decreasing pain and inflammation and enabling healing. Treatment may also include a variety of modalities to aid in the healing process which may include ultrasound, electrical muscle stimulation, moist heat, and cold pack, spinal traction, or massage therapy.
