Treatment begins in the office and continues at home with various activities (stretches, rehab, and/or lifestyle modifications) that are unique to each patient's situation. Our Doctors provide comprehensive care by blending the best techniques in the field of manual therapy from chiropractors, physical therapists and medical doctors. One of our patients stated it best..."You guys are like orthopedic doctors when you diagnose, but instead of surgery you do rehab and chiropractic."
