Chronic Conditions

Millions of Americans are turning to Complementary and Alternative Care to help manage their chronic conditions, or better yet, to help prevent them. Rather than taking aspirin or ibuprofen on a daily basis, many look for information and support in healing to lead healthier lives as we age.

From arthritis to fibromyalgia, we have helped many in their search for relief and health. Gentle hands-on care along with home or assisted exercises may be in your treatment plan. Nutritionals or medical foods may support the body while it struggles to gain balance and energy.

Diagnostics

For long term issues, our doctors often need more information to arrive at a proper diagnosis. Your doctor may request further tests including:
Radiographs or "X-rays" or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
CT "Cat" scan or computed tomography, Bone Scan
Blood Panels for glucose, cholesterol, bone health or more
Specialized hormonal panels: DHEA, cortisol, estrogen, liver detoxification etc.

Orthotics

Because body mechanics are a common cause of chronic conditions and discomfort, we may evaluate the balance and biomechanics of your feet.

Your feet, toes, and ankles are the foundation of your skeletal system. Imbalances may be present even if you are not experiencing foot pain. Though these imbalances may go unnoticed, they can lead to muscular imbalances and postural misalignments, causing pain and fatigue. By stabilizing and balancing your feet, Orthotics may enhance your body’s performance, reduce pain, and contribute to your overall wellness. Orthotics complement your chiropractic treatment as you stand, walk, and live an active lifestyle.

We provide custom-made supports, which give structural foot support to correct imbalances found in the three arches of your feet, yet allow the foot to retain a full range of motion.
