Spinal misalignments (subluxations) cause nervous system interference and negatively affect many aspects of our health. Our nerves supply every organ and all functions within our bodies, so having a healthy nervous system is a key factor thus allowing your body the ability to heal itself, fight infection, remain disease free and function optimally.

I recently had a massage at Backbone Wellness with Ashley Girvan. I cannot recommend her services enough. I have been searching for a massage therapist for years given my history of severe neck and back issues. Her anatomical knowledge and ability to get to the root cause of my pain meant that for the first time, I feel true relief that I didn’t know was possible anymore.
Just as she recommended, the PEFT therapy mat really helps maintain the lasting effect of the bodywork I received. If you haven’t seen Ashley yet you need to. She’s worth the wait!

I have been regularly going to Backbone for a year and a half and only have wonderful things to say about the center and it’s staff. They do a fantastic job making sure the office and rooms are clean and sanitized after every person. Even during a pandemic I very feel safe going there knowing they take many precautions to keep everyone healthy. Thank you to the amazing doctors, massage therapists, and wonderful staff who make each and every visit amazing!

I have been to several chiropractors in my past and Dr. Clinton is my favorite ever! She takes great interest in each and every patient and is passionate about everything that contributes to your health. She has both Eastern and Western medical training, so you get a very holistic approach to everything she addresses for you. I also love that her practice includes multiple treatment options including muscle work, which not only feels great, but also helps immensely when you suffer from neck or back problems.

FABULOUS. Can't say enough about preve time care and a great group of wellness professionals. Drs. Clinton and Ammon are phenomenal! Tremendous massage staff as well. Acupuncture will change your life if you've never tried it. Used altogether, this place keeps me OUT of the other doctor for anything more than regular check up.

I received treatment by a chiropractor here for 2-3 months and my pain worsened considerably. The doctor said keep coming 2x/week without a clear treatment plan or timeline. I asked the doctor to see my treatment plan in writing multiple times in the office before receiving it several days later via email when I had decided to go somewhere else because my pain had gotten so bad. I started seeing a new doctor at a different center who treats differently than the doctor at Backbone did and within 1 month my pain is gone. I didn't even have to see the new doctor 2x/week to resolve my pain, and I was
