Comprehensive Spinal Radiographic Exams – including digital analysis of each curve, segment and disc shown on your x-rays. Computerized SEMG – Why guess when you can gauge? We use a certified state-of- the-art technology, watch video which helps us, access the stress on your spine associated with subluxations.

We have treated hundreds of patients where only a very small percentage needing to have surgery. We also work closely with other healthcare specialists when the need arises. Extremity Adjusting – from the joints in your hands, arms, shoulders, feet, legs, hips, ribs, and even your jaw; we can help. TENS/Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Pain Relief – in rare cases these are used to help prevent or minimize the pain that can be associated with acute or chronic pain.

Is your child active? If yes, we all know that comes will the potential for injury, especially in summer with water activities; pool, water slides, wakeboarding and personal watercraft.
A good question is; how would you know if their neck was injured especially if they didn’t complain of pain but yet still took a major fall or crash?
Well, just recently our research team published the first paper on hundreds of subjects documenting that neck injuries do exist in the absence of pain in children. Left undetected and unresolved, these injuries can affect their quality of life early and potentially into adulthood.
We are honored that our work was placed on the cover of a radiology journal as this area is highly understudied. While we understand the importance of this work, we hope that it is a catalyst for other studies as well. Through proper imaging and analysis, these injuries can be identified so that proper treatment can be carried out. Call us for any questions you may have.

For our patients who have been with us for nearly 2 decades; they know we advocate for them through research and that dedication to patient care will continue.

For those research aficionados, the paper will be available in pubmed indexing in a few weeks but in the meantime here’s the link to the journal and a picture of the journal cover.

IMPORTANT: What would happen if someone just kept pushing on this patient's back? It would get worse!

However, we were able to correct it. Ask us how.

In some cases, even after surgery, some level of correction can be achieved. See images below.

Here is another first in healthcare published by our office. This is the first time it has been documented that two regions in the spine that had slipped forward were correctable. For years, this condition was thought to be permanent and only manageable by surgery.

Over the last 4-5 years we have corrected hundreds of these non-surgically.

If you're suffering from low back pain, call our office to see if you're a candidate for the type of care we provide.

[Purpose] To report on the reduction of a double lumbar spine spondylolisthesis by use of Chiropractic BioPhysics® technique. [Participant and Methods] A 57 year-old male presented with severe chronic low back pains and sciatica. After playing hockey for 50 years, he was unable to contin...

Would you see a dentist that only looked at the front teeth? Most likely not. For that same reason we do full spine x-rays.

Think of the foundation of a house; if it is off, so are the other floors structurally. To add to that, if you have a hot water tank blow in the attic, all floors get wet. So while all areas of the spine are important, the lumbar spine is key when doing corrective care.

The side view of this patient clearly shows a loss of curve in the lumbar spine causing nerve pressure to where the patient hasn't walked normally for nearly a decade. Almost no muscle strength in the foot.

By focusing on the right area, we were able to achieve these amazing results with 100% recovery of strength, and no back pain.

Visit us at www.betterhealthbydesign.com or call 770-57-2777 to see if you're a candidate for our office.
