say goodbye to your pain

Message From Our Founder

We use state-of-the-art chiropractic technology, available only to medical professionals, to ensure the best care. Before we implement a technology, I personally use them for myself. Each machine can cost up to tens of thousands of dollars and is backed by research to provide safe, effective treatment. This investment reflects our commitment to your long-term wellness.

Method No. 1

Chiropractic Spinal and Extrimity adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments, also known as spinal manipulations, are a core component of chiropractic care designed to restore proper alignment, improve mobility, and relieve pain. By applying controlled, precise force to misaligned joints, chiropractic adjustments help reduce nerve interference, decrease inflammation, and enhance overall spinal function. These adjustments are effective for a variety of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and posture-related issues.

Method No. 2

Motorized Leander Chiropratic TableS

Our chiropractic physicians adjust patients on the Leander table. The Leander Chiropractic Table is a motorized, flexion-distraction table designed to enhance spinal decompression and mobility while reducing patient discomfort. Unlike standard tables, this advanced equipment provides gentle, rhythmic movement that stretches and decompresses the spine, making it highly effective for conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic lower back pain. It allows for customized adjustments based on the patient’s needs, improving alignment without excessive force. The table also enhances circulation, reduces muscle stiffness, and creates a more relaxing treatment experience, making it a valuable tool for both chiropractic adjustments and rehabilitative therapy.

Method No. 3

Arthrostim

The ArthroStim is a high-tech chiropractic instrument that delivers rapid, controlled thrusts to the spine and joints, with 12-14 micro impulses per second. "Arthro" means joint and "Stim" is stimulator. Unlike traditional manual adjustments, this device allows chiropractors to apply precise force without excessive twisting or cracking, making it a great option for those who prefer a gentle but effective treatment. The ArthroStim helps correct spinal misalignments, reduce nerve irritation, and enhance mobility. It is widely used for conditions such as sciatica, herniated discs, TMJ dysfunction, and chronic pain, offering relief without the discomfort that some patients experience with traditional chiropractic techniques.

Method No. 4

vibracussor

The VibraCussor is a percussive therapy instrument designed to release deep muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote mobility. By using rhythmic pulses to penetrate soft tissues, it effectively breaks up adhesions, relieves fascial restrictions, and reduces chronic pain without the intensity of deep tissue massage. Chiropractors use the VibraCussor to address headaches, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, and postural imbalances, making it a versatile tool for pain management and rehabilitation. This therapy is especially beneficial for patients who experience tightness, inflammation, or restricted movement, helping them regain comfort and function.

Method No. 5

activator

The Activator Adjusting Instrument is a handheld, spring-loaded device that delivers precise, low-force impulses to the spine and extremities. This tool is ideal for patients who prefer a gentler approach to chiropractic care, including children, seniors, and individuals with conditions like osteoporosis. Unlike traditional manual adjustments, the high-speed thrust of the Activator prevents muscle resistance, allowing for a more effective correction without discomfort. Chiropractors use it to target specific misalignments, improve nervous system function, and alleviate conditions such as neck pain, headaches, and joint dysfunction.

Method No. 6

Intersegmental traction table

Intersegmental Table Therapy is a passive, therapeutic spinal treatment that gently mobilizes the vertebrae, improves flexibility, and enhances circulation. As the table moves, it applies a rolling massage along the spine, helping to relax muscles, reduce stiffness, and promote spinal alignment. This therapy is particularly beneficial for patients with chronic back pain, spinal misalignments, and postural imbalances, as it helps restore normal range of motion and spinal function.

Method No. 7

Softwave Tissue Regeneration

SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Therapy is an innovative, non-invasive treatment that uses shockwave technology to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. By delivering high-energy acoustic waves to injured or damaged tissues, this therapy helps break down scar tissue, reduce inflammation, and increase blood circulation—accelerating recovery at the cellular level. SoftWave Therapy is widely used for conditions such as tendonitis, joint pain, ligament injuries, and chronic inflammation, making it a powerful alternative to surgery and medications.

Method No. 8

Deep thermal laser

Thermal Laser Therapy is an advanced pain relief and healing technology that uses targeted light energy to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue repair, and promote cellular regeneration. This therapy penetrates deep into the tissues, stimulating blood flow, reducing swelling, and relieving pain without the need for medication or invasive procedures. Thermal laser therapy is effective for arthritis, sports injuries, neuropathy, joint pain, and post-surgical recovery.

Method No. 9

electric muscle stimulator

Electric Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Therapy is a therapeutic technique that uses low-frequency electrical impulses to stimulate muscles, reduce pain, and accelerate healing. This non-invasive treatment helps relax tight muscles, reduce inflammation, and improve blood flow, making it especially beneficial for patients with muscle spasms, sports injuries, and chronic pain conditions. By enhancing muscle activation and nerve function, EMS therapy also supports rehabilitation after injury and improves muscular endurance.

Method No. 10

custom orthotics

We offer custom orthotics using advanced Foot Levelers 3D scanning technology to provide a precise analysis of your foot structure. This non-invasive digital scan captures detailed measurements of your arches, weight distribution, and posture to create orthotics specifically tailored to your unique biomechanics. Unlike generic shoe inserts, Foot Levelers custom orthotics are designed to correct imbalances, improve alignment, and provide superior support for the feet, knees, hips, and lower back. Whether you're experiencing foot pain, plantar fasciitis, knee discomfort, or spinal misalignment, our cutting-edge scanning process ensures you receive the most accurate and comfortable fit for long-term relief and enhanced mobility.
