Conditions we treat
Every condition below has a defined examination and treatment pathway at our office. If you are not sure which one fits, start with a request or a free discovery call and we will help you choose.
Back Pain
Back pain has many causes, so care starts with an examination that identifies which joints, discs, muscles or movement patterns are involved — then a conservative plan aimed at that cause rather than the symptom alone.
Learn more →Neck Pain
Neck pain is often a combination of joint restriction, muscle tension and sustained posture; care addresses all three rather than only the sore spot.
Learn more →Headaches & Migraines
Not all headaches are alike; identifying the type — tension, cervicogenic or migraine — determines whether neck-focused care, neurofeedback, lifestyle change or a combination is the right approach.
Learn more →Sciatica
Sciatica is pain following the sciatic nerve into the buttock and leg; treatment depends on what is irritating the nerve — most often a disc, a narrowed canal or tight surrounding tissue.
Learn more →Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can come from the shoulder itself, the shoulder blade's movement, or the neck — an examination separates them before treatment begins.
Learn more →Arm & Leg Pain
Pain, numbness or tingling in an arm or leg is often referred from the spine or an entrapped nerve, so care begins by locating the source rather than treating the limb alone.
Learn more →Herniated Disc
A herniated disc occurs when the softer inner material of a spinal disc pushes through its outer wall and irritates nearby tissue or a nerve root; many cases improve with structured non-surgical care.
Learn more →Bulging Disc
A bulging disc is a broad outward extension of a disc's outer wall; it is often painless, and when it does cause symptoms it usually responds to conservative care.
Learn more →Scoliosis
Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine; chiropractic care does not straighten the curve, but it can help with the pain, stiffness and movement limitations that often accompany it.
Learn more →Osteoarthritis & Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative change in joints and discs is common with age and does not have to mean ongoing pain; care focuses on keeping joints moving, managing load and maintaining strength.
Learn more →Whiplash
Whiplash is a neck injury from rapid back-and-forth movement, most often in a vehicle collision; early assessment and graded, active care produce better outcomes than rest alone.
Learn more →Carpal Tunnel
Carpal tunnel syndrome is compression of the median nerve at the wrist, causing hand numbness and tingling; conservative care often helps, and the neck and forearm are examined too because they can produce similar symptoms.
Learn more →Facet Joint Syndrome
Facet joint syndrome is pain from the small paired joints at the back of the spine, typically worse with extension and twisting and often eased by bending forward.
Learn more →Vertigo & Dizziness
Dizziness has several possible sources — inner ear, neck, blood pressure and central causes — so screening comes before treatment, and we refer when the cause sits outside our scope.
