Who We Help
A chiropractic adjustment is a therapeutic treatment by a licensed chiropractor. Your chiropractor will use pressure to manipulate joints in your body to realign your spine and reduce pain and discomfort. The list of issues we can help with is rather extensive. Learn more below.

Bedwetting
Bedwetting is a common childhood phenomenon and commonly disappears around the age of four or five. Chiropractic can help bedwetting by affecting the nerves that control the bladder muscles allowing the body to have better control over the bladder.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Many people call any weakness, numbness, or burning in their hand carpal tunnel. Many times it is not in fact carpal tunnel syndrome but instead irritation to the nerves along the line from the neck to the hand. Whether it is true carpal tunnel, stemming from the wrist, or a different entrapment, chiropractic can help reduce tension on the nerves. The reduction of nerve interference can rid the carpal tunnel or carpel tunnel-like symptoms.

Ear Infections
Chiropractic has historically had great success helping children with ear infections. The adjustments help boost the immune system and can clear the nerves innervating the ear.
Dr. Beth first discovered chiropractic in seeking help with her son’s ear infections.
Headaches
Traditional headaches and migraines are often caused or aggravated by neck subluxations causing muscle tightness and nerve interference.

Neck Pain
The head weighs an average of 12 pounds and undergoes a lot of stress physically and emotionally. The chronic abuse neck’s take in our society can often lead to neck pain. Chiropractic care has had great success with alleviating neck pain and restoring its position and function.

Pinched Nerves
Nerve pain is often sharp, stingy and debilitating. It is also complex and typically involves a complex of tissues. Nerves come out all the way down the spine and can be stressed by discs, bones, muscles and other tissues. Chiropractic care will realign the body to relieve pressure on the nerve.
PMS
Chiropractic care can restore nerve flow enhancing function of your reproductive and hormonal systems.

Pregnancy
The placement of the uterus and stress it undergoes can be equaled out with adjustments to your lower back and pelvis. The birth canal is made up of the lower part of your spine and when it is unbalanced it can put increased pressure on the mom and baby during delivery.

Sciatica
“Sciatica” pain is caused by tension on the sciatic nerve which runs from your low back down the back of the buttocks, thigh and leg causing fatigue and pain. Chiropractic care can relieve the pressure on the sciatic nerve easing the pain.
Scoliosis
Chiropractic care can slow the progression, prevent the progression or reverse the effect of scoliosis in the spine. Chiropractic care can decrease the stress on adjacent segments in the spine due to scoliosis by allowing the spine to adapt efficiently.
Stress
Stress causes several different reactions in our bodies which have bi-products. These bi-products are stored in our tissues and cause tension and subluxations. The stresses can be from physical, chemical or emotional routes.
Whiplash
When your head is rapidly whipped around there is typically injury to your cervical spine which change the function and alignment of your neck. Even the smallest fender bender can cause injury in the cervical spine.
