Though some believe chiropractic care is intended only to relieve back and neck pain, it actually does much more. A wide variety of health problems stem from spinal imbalance and dysfunction. Everyday living, stress and old injuries can cause vertebrae to lose their proper position or motion, irritating your nervous system, causing pain and nerve interference throughout the body.
By restoring spinal balance, chiropractic care aids the body in healing itself. We believe the Activator Method's safe, effective and gentle low-force adjustments are the very best way to accomplish this goal.
