Chiropractic, Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine Center

Chiropractors have been trained as primary care physicians to diagnose and treat a variety of health care conditions. The treatment most associated with chiropractic care is a Chiropractic Spinal Manipulation. This is just one of the treatment options a chiropractor can offer. A Chiropractic Spinal Manipulation has been shown to be effective in treating low back pain, neck pain and headaches.

The Chinese have been using acupuncture to help with fertility by identifying and balancing patterns of disharmony for centuries. If assisted reproductive techniques like in vitro fertilization (IVF) are being used, acupuncture can help increase the chances of success anywhere from 40-60%.

Since high levels of stress can be a major cause of the inability to conceive naturally or have a successful IVF cycle, stress reduction is central to restoration of normal fertility.Traditional Chinese Medicine recognizes that optimal health in both men and women is necessary for a successful pregnancy.

Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM), which includes therapies such as chiropractic, massage, herbal medicine and acupuncture, is characterized by a holistic and highly individualized approach to patient care. Its emphasis is on maximizing the body's inherent healing ability; getting patients involved as active participants in their own care; addressing the physical, mental and spiritual attributes of a disease; and preventive care.

A Chiropractic visit will include a detailed history and examination, a diagnosis and therapy recommendation. Your consent is always required before a Chiropractic Spinal Manipulation. Not all visits to a Chiropractor include a manipulation; there are other methods of providing pain relief and restoring joint function such as traction, extension therapy, and activator treatments.
