Conditions we treat

Find what hurts, in plain English

Most people come in searching by their symptom, not a diagnosis. So here's a straightforward rundown of what we treat and how we approach it. Recognize yours? Give us a call — same-day first visits, walk-ins welcome.

How we treat the most common complaints

Every plan starts with finding the real cause — then matching the right adjustment and supplemental treatments to it. Here's the short version for each.

Low back pain

The reason most people first walk through our door. Whether it crept in from sitting all day or hit suddenly when you bent the wrong way, we trace it to its source — a stuck joint, an irritated disc, tight muscle — and treat that directly, so you're not just masking it with pills.

Sciatica

That sharp, shooting pain running from your low back down through the hip and leg is usually a nerve under pressure. Adjustments and spinal decompression work to take that pressure off, which is often what finally calms the burning and tingling for good.

Neck pain

Hours at a screen, a bad night's sleep, an old injury — neck pain has a lot of sources and a lot of nerve endings. Gentle, precise adjustments plus soft-tissue work restore motion and ease the stiffness, headaches and shoulder tension that ride along with it.

Disc herniation & disc bulge

When a disc bulges or herniates, it can press on nearby nerves and send pain well beyond your back. This is where spinal decompression earns its keep — gently creating space so the disc and nerve can settle down, drug-free and without surgery as a first resort.

Headaches & migraines

A surprising number of headaches and migraines start in the neck and upper spine. By relieving tension and restoring motion there, we help many patients turn down both how often and how hard their headaches hit.

Shoulder pain

The shoulder, neck and upper back all work together, so shoulder pain rarely lives on its own. We look at the whole chain — joints, posture, soft tissue — to loosen what's restricted and rebuild comfortable, pain-free movement.

Whiplash

After a car accident, whiplash can take days to fully show up — then linger for months if it's ignored. Early, consistent care helps the neck heal properly. We also handle the insurance side, including auto claims, so you can focus on getting better.

Scoliosis

A curve in the spine can bring stiffness, uneven muscle strain and discomfort. While chiropractic care doesn't erase a curve, the right adjustments, stretching and exercises can improve mobility and keep day-to-day pain in check.

Carpal tunnel syndrome

Numb, tingling fingers and a weak grip don't always start at the wrist — the nerves travel all the way up through the neck and shoulder. We assess that full path and treat the spots that are actually pinching the nerve.

Posterior facet syndrome

The small facet joints that link your vertebrae can become irritated and inflamed, making it hurt to bend or twist. Targeted adjustments restore smooth motion to those joints and quiet the inflammation behind the pain.

Auto, work & sports injuries

A fender-bender, a lifting injury on the job, a weekend that caught up with you — these injuries respond best to prompt, hands-on care. We treat the injury and work directly with auto insurance and workers' compensation so the paperwork doesn't slow your recovery.
