Chiropractic May Be The Answer
There are marshmallow-like pads between your vertebrae called intervertebral discs. The discs are very tough but can be damaged. The discs provide for movement in the spine. When discs start to degenerate the spine can become less mobile, and may even start to fuse together.
The discs also provide space between the vertebrae. This is important because nerves pass through the spaces that are created by the discs. Discs also act as shock absorbers. When movement occurs, the jelly solution inside the disc has the ability to expand and compress. If the spine becomes misaligned, a disc can become bulged or herniated. In some cases, it may even rupture. A misalignment is not the only cause of this problem. Age can cause the disc to become weak and dehydrated.
If you are struggling with back or neck pain, chiropractic care may be the best care option for you. Chiropractic is one of the least invasive and safest options for conditions of the spine and discs.
Focused Neuropathy Care
The care method for neuropathy starts with a thorough assessment that includes nerve conduction studies and electromyograms. During this evaluation, we delve into your symptoms, overall health, and lifestyle factors. Diagnostic tests may be conducted to evaluate the severity of nerve damage. Based on these findings, a personalized care strategy is crafted. This may involve medications, physical therapy interventions, or surgical options aimed at addressing underlying causes and improving nerve function.

There is no greater joy than witnessing our practice members experience hope and healing in our office. With that aim in mind, we strive to embody the following core values as a clinic and team.
Our Core Values
The fundamental beliefs of a person or organization. These guiding principles dictate behavior and can help people understand the difference between right and wrong. We want to share with you our core values. By knowing these you will be able to make better decisions on how to interact with our team and better serve our patients.
We over communicate and are transparent about all issues. We talk about what is difficult and we are okay with calling out and being called out to improve each other and the group. We are clear, concise, and compelling when we communicate.

Together Everyone Achieves More. Everyone benefits when we work together. We display honesty, respect, and integrity always. We do not tolerate negative talk or finger pointing. Efficiency is our motto. We are accountable to hold each other to the highest standards. We believe that no one else is responsible for my actions. I choose to do my work at the highest level. I choose to respond rather than react.
We do more than what is needed without having to be asked, we go above and beyond when no one is watching. We are always looking for the next thing to accomplish. When there is a problem to solve, we come with a minimum of two solutions.
We are always growing; as a company and as individuals, both professionally and personally. We see growth as a blessing and never an inconvenience. We welcome every challenge that comes with growth and will adapt to overcome any circumstance. We never stop striving to be better. We take constructive criticism as a welcomed opportunity to grow.

What is chiropractic care?
Healthcare professionals who practice chiropractic care focus on the neuromusculoskeletal system of the body, and work to help patients eliminate pain, and help and prevent injuries and disorders of the muscles, bones, and nerves.
The primary objective of alleviating these issues is that by correcting nerve interference, by means of adjusting the spine, the body is able to heal itself without invasive procedures and drugs.
Each patient’s case is different, as our spines are all shaped differently, and our bodies react to various outside stimuli in a variety of ways so it’s important to understand that every chiropractic care is designed specifically for each patient.
