Healthy Living Made Easy

 A chiropractic adjustment, also called spinal manipulation, is a therapeutic procedure that involves a chiropractor applying pressure to manipulate joints in the body. The goal is to improve spinal motion, increase range of motion, correct misalignment, and release pressure on nerves.

 Chiropractic adjustments can:

• Reduce pain and discomfort
• Complement traditional medical care
• Correct abnormal movement patterns or non-functional vertebrae
   

Neuromuscular re-education (NMR) is a science-based technique that uses repetitive motion to restore movement patterns. It can help improve motor control, coordination, and functional abilities.
