Stop and think about what you're doing to your spine, right now, as you're reading this post. Are you looking down at a smartphone? Or hunched over a computer screen? Sitting up straight isn't just good posture--it also prevents spine degeneration or "text neck." Did you know that looking down at your mobile device for hours every day can be detrimental to your spine?
The chief of spine surgery at New York Spine Surgery and Rehabilitation Medicine Dr. Kenneth Hansraj conducted a study about how one's posture while texting affects the spine and published it in the U.S. National Library of Medicine. The study is entitled: "Assessment of stresses in the cervical spine caused by posture and position of the head."

We take pride in who we are and what we have to offer. Our team attends continuing education classes and training throughout the year to bring you the latest developments in Chiropractic and to provide you the highest level of service. We have seen many miracles through chiropractic care and would love to bring that experience to you.
Since its creation in 1895, chiropractic is the use of adjustments to the spine and other joints in the body to remove interference from the nervous system, allowing the body to function at an optimal level and heal itself. This interference on the nervous system is referred to as a subluxation.
By being adjusted, the chiropractor removes the subluxation, which allows the nervous system to function as it is intended, and the body is able to return to its optimal functioning.The nervous system controls each and every cell in your body. It is a self-sufficient system, based on an innate intelligence of the body to maintain and heal itself.

Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy as performed in our office is a very high-tech form of traction. It is a highly successful, non-surgical alternative procedure for relieving low back, neck, and arm and leg pain. Decompression Therapy is a modern, high tech, non-surgical traction procedure that effectively treats disabling low back, neck, and radiating leg and arm pain.
ART is a patented, state of the art soft tissue system/movement based massage technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and permanently with ART.
The hallmark of the Ultra Lite Program is simplicity of implementation. This is why healthcare practitioners have been successful in implementing it in their offices, and why compliance by patients is so high. It is important to note however that weight loss for us has two components.
The first component is to lose fat while muscle mass is protected, and the second component is to learn how to maintain this fat loss over time - the weight maintenance.Let's explain below how the "fat loss" phase of the program works using Ultra Lite. With Ultra Lite patients receive a 30-page manual, 80% of which are recipes.

Dr Lance is the best chiropractor that I have ever been to. He is knowledgeable and very gentle and has never hurt me. In the past I have left chiropractic offices swearing never to go back. But he is different, he has helped me. I feel I stand up straighter and sleep better.I would highly recommend him to all my family members and friends.

Dr. Lance & Dr. Magalia are awesome. They're hours of service are 2nd to none, even treating patients on Saturday, which I've never heard of. I've been a patient of them for over 15 years and this review is LONG over due. They have treated me for travel related neck & back issues, both upper & lower, along with migraine headaches. I always leave their office feeling relieved. Their office staff is very friendly. The place is always clean too. I have referred numerous people to the office and everyone is always pleased and returned. Top notch service.

Started getting help from Dr Lance Cazzaza about a month ago and I am starting to see the results. Ive suffred from chronic pain in my right shoulder/spine and right hip for over 6yrs but after being explained the process and being super aware of my body i can see the major benifts of chiropractic work i cant wait to see the benifits of sticking with chiropractic work long term. Thanks to the staff for being so welcoming and helpful. You wont regret being seen at this office. They are attentive, warm and best of Dr Cazzaza can really say he knows what hes doing.

Dr. Casazza and Dr. Magale helped aligned my neck and back. I have been going to them for a year. I would highly recommend them both for their professionalism, knowledge, chiropractic techniques, and treatment. I also get massages from massage therapist Nicole. She knows how to release knots and tension in your muscle well. Thank you Active Life.

I hadn't been to see Dr. Magale in several years but this neck and shoulder pain was making me crazy. After first treatment I slept all night for the first time in weeks. Everything is flowing and moving again - everything!!!
Will be incorporating into my life again to stay on top of problems - the entire team is professional and friendly and Charmaine rocks!

For 2 weeks I had immense pain in my back/shoulder with pinched nerve / tendonitis symtoms. Dr. Magale and Vanessa were amazing!!! I had never gone to a chiropractor before because ive never needed to but this nightly pain needed treatment. Dr. Magale explained the anatomy and physiology of what was going on and had several treatments in the office to help eliminate paon and discomfort. Dr. Magale and Vanessa were sensitive and competent and always assured me that i would not be in pain the rest of my life (ok, i got a little dramatic).
I am happy to report that I am feeling much better and

Excellent! I have received the best treatment. Dr. Magale is exceptional. From the moment I walked in the door I felt comfortable. She is very thorough as well. Everything was explained to me in full detail,… from the reasons for my discomfort, my treatment plan as well as expectations and path forward. The staff is friendly and attentive. The ease of checking in for my appointments is great. They have been able to accommodate my crazy schedule and after only a month..I am feeling the benefits. I really look forward to my appointments and am excited to see my progress in 12 weeks and beyond

What is so mind boggling to me is how removed Neurologists are from the understanding of Chiropractic services. I found out more in 1 visit with Dr. Magale and the staff than in all of visits and tests provided by "traditional medicine". I am on the road to mending and began to feel relief after the first adjustment. If you are in need of Chiropractic services look no further than Active Life!!

I used to think chiropractors were witch doctors and such, well that is what my parents taught me growing up. A few years ago that notion changed when it became necessary for my to seek out treatment of one. After talking to several friends and co-workers I came upon Active Life and Dr Magale.
Dr Magale is a gold mine for the Sacramento area with her practice. She is very knowledgeable and while sweet she knows just what to tweak to make your body feel better. She is definitely not the witch doctor that my parents made chiropractors out to be and makes my visits enjoyable...
OMG... she forgot
