The American Chiropractic Asscoiation provides a great resource that will help explain some common questions. We provide joint mobilization utilizing a wide range of chiropractic techniques. Specific spinal adjustments are the hallmark of chiropractic care and are intended to restore normal motion to restricted joints in the spine and extremities.
Dr. Alcorn joined the practice in 2013 after his residency in Rochester NY.

Dr. Alcorn not only knows what he's talking about, but he listened to me when I explained my past experiences with chiropractic treatment and other doctors. I feel that he truly wants to see his patients improve. I have been to two other chiropractors in the city and I have to say that Dr. Alcorn is definitely who I would recommend seeing for any issues you may be having. Don't hesitate to make an appointment if you're unsure while reading this, you will not be disappointed. The two other chiropractors that I mentioned quickly settled into their own routine, and didn't focus on the issues I wanted

I've had lackluster experience with other chiropractors before but have been impressed with Dr Alcorn and his staff. Dr Alcorn is a good listener/communicator and explains the how and why of things I really appreciate (I'm a nuts and bolts kinda guy). I've also had two massages in his office with different massage therapists. One pushes hard on the sore spots to get the knots out while the other has a less direct and somewhat gentler technique to elongate the muscles to get the knots out. I might be leaning towards preferring the more direct application of pressure then the muscle elongation technique

Had my first visit today, and could not be more satisfied with the service and staff. A thorough, non-rushed conversation about areas of pain, an incredible massage to the tunes of Dinah Washington, and a doctor that was attentive, patient, and made sure i knew what to expect in my future visits. Highly recommend!!!!
