The Gonstead Chiropractor goes beyond what many chiropractors consider a spinal assessment by conducting a thorough analysis of your spine using five criteria to detect the presence of the vertebral subluxation complex. Visualization is a way to cross reference all the other findings. Your chiropractor is an expert in looking for subtle changes in your posture and movement which could indicate any problems.

From the moment you enter our office we do our best to make you feel welcome and part of our family. Your doctor is here to assist you in your health care journey keeping in mind your health is ultimately up to you.
The role of the spinal column is to protect the spinal cord and delicate nerves that exit between each of the spinal vertebra (bone of the spine). A subluxation is present when a vertebra has lost its proper alignment to the bone above or the bone below, or both.
The result of the spinal misalignment, or subluxation, is not only a loss of movement in the spine, but also, impingement of the spinal nerve thus interfering with the transmission of information going from the brain to the organs, muscles or tissues of the body leaving it in a state of dis-ease.Subluxations are the result of physical, chemical or mental stresses that occur in excess of our body's ability to adapt.
