Also known as an adjustment, this is a non-invasive therapeutic maneuver that helps joints to move better. A joint involves two bones that meet and have a capsule around it that is filled with fluid. When this joint isn’t moving as well as it could, it can cause stiffness, and decreased mobility. By opening these joints through an adjustment this can result in, increase in range of motion, and decrease in pain.

Chiropractors can treat joints all over the body, including the spine, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. We got your back – and more.

This type of acupuncture has similar technique to medical acupuncture with insertion of fine needles in the body, but is based in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) ideologies. Patients will fill out an in-depth intake form with any specific concerns and about their general well being, and our acupuncturist will make a TCM diagnosis based on any imbalances occurring in your body.

An imbalance can mean either an excesses or deficiencies in our organ’s energy (aka Qi, pronounced “chee"). All of our organ systems are connected and need to be functioning together properly in order for us to feel our best. Through the body there are meridians (aka channels or lines) that run through connecting our organs and our body’s Qi. The goal of TCM acupuncture is to use needles on certain spots along these meridians to restore these imbalances to avoid any complications within the body
