Chiropractic Practice Description
We practice a treat and release philosophy at the clinic with an emphasis on evidence-informed care. The best evidence available indicates that chiropractic care is most beneficial for acute/chronic low back pain, neck pain, and chronic headaches, hence those are our specialties. Evidence also indicates chiropractic care is beneficial for other conditions, but the main three are low back, neck, and head pain. Our goal is to get our patients out of pain as quickly as possible and use ergonomic advice to avoid future exacerbations and/or recurrences of similar bouts of pain. Most aches and pains are transient and will go away with home-care, however when back pain doesn’t resolve with home-care is when we prefer to see our patients.
