Neck_pain_2.jpgNeck pain can make you miserable. Left untreated it can lead to serious spinal degeneration or nerve problems.


There are many causes of neck pain. Fortunately, chiropractic has been shown to be the most effective treatment for most types of back pain.

The first step is a correct diagnosis, so that the correct treatment can be applied. I have almost 20 years experience diagnosing and treating all types of back pain and neck pain.

The second step is applying the best treatment to get you out of pain and begin the healing process. I am experienced in a wide range of treatments including:

  • Manual adjusting
  • Activator adjusting
  • Applied Kinesiology techniques for muscle balancing
  • Acupuncture and microcurrent acupuncture
  • Electrical muscle stimulation
  • Active release
  • Nutraceuticals for pain relief
  • Cervical traction
These names may not mean much to you, but having the right treatment can make a huge difference in how quickly you get relief.

The third step is making sure that your body heals completely and you have a plan to keep the pain from coming back.

  • Exercise - developing a specific routine that works for you
  • Diet and nutrition - working with you to improve diet and solve nutritional issues that may contribute to your back pain or limit healing.
  • Stress and emotional issues - Stress can contribute to back pain.
