Chiropractic
A chiropractic adjustment is a therapeutic treatment where a licensed chiropractor uses their hands or special instruments to manipulate joints in your body. This treatment is also called spinal manipulation or joint manipulation. These manipulations are typically painless and can have gentle or deep pressure depending on the pain the patient presents with, area, and age. A chiropractic adjustment can help reduce pain, correct your body’s alignment and how your body functions physically. It accomplishes this because when segments of your spine shift in small amounts or large from trauma or day to day life, the nervous system becomes affected. Since your nervous system branches out to innervate the rest of your body and functional processes it is very important to keep your body aligned. Chiropractic adjustments offer treatment that complements other medical care you may receive such as acupuncture, massage, primary care, and physical therapy.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a technique in which practitioners insert fine needles into the skin to treat health problems. The needles may be manipulated manually or stimulated with small electrical currents called electroacupuncture. Acupuncture can help improve sports performance and aid in injury recovery, balance the hormones, improve digestion, sleep, and anxiety/depression. The acupuncture needles are placed in very specific points along meridians which run down the body in lines just as they do on the earth's axis. The needles can induce a somatovisceral response through the stimulation of the nervous system on specific points and thus regulating the flow of energy within the body. Acupuncture has been in use in some form for at least 2,500 years.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue therapies aimed to improve muscular tension, tone, and pain. These treatments can improve performance, functionality, and wellness of the patient.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is a systems biology based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness. A diagnosis can be the result of more than one cause. For example, depression can be caused by many different factors, including inflammation. Likewise, a cause such as inflammation may lead to a number of different diagnoses, including depression. The precise manifestation of each cause depends on the individual’s genes, environment, and lifestyle, and only treatments that address the right cause will have lasting benefit beyond symptom suppression.

Alternative Medicine
Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety through gentle touch. Reiki practitioners use their hands to deliver energy to your body, improving the flow and balance of your energy to support healing. Mikao Usui developed reiki in the early 1900s, deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things. Now, reiki is used all over the world, including prestiges hospitals and hospices, to complement other forms of health treatments.
