The reasons for seeing a chiropractor are as varied as our lifestyles and as similar as our physiology.

Protect your good health.

In an age when the demands on our time and energy are constantly escalating, even the most minor aches and pains deserve professional attention in order to reduce the possibility they may slow us down, or stop us for good. Few of us are attuned to how we approach even the most routine tasks, and so are barely conscious of the way we exercise, sit, walk, lift or stand. As a chiropractic doctor, I pay attention to these issues for you - and design a program of care to help relieve you of the nagging, acute or chronic aches and pains that occur in your back and neck. Since the spine, spinal column and nerve network are my specialty, you can trust me to educate you on ways to maintain good health and achieve proper body balance, so you can do all the tasks on your lists, and have time left over to do the really fun things, pain free.

More than 90% of the time, patients complete a program of care that satisfies their expectations.

Millions of people seek professional help every year for common back and neck troubles that range from muscle ligament injuries to injuries of the spinal joints, disc problems and vertebral subluxation. As a chiropractic doctor, I have two goals when I treat you as a patient.

One: to relieve the immediate pain, and two: to use adjustments to restore the normal biomechanics of the spine and relieve poor nerve communication.

This precise and delicate maneuver helps restore the spine's proper motion and function. The treatment is often part of a more comprehensive plan that includes recommended exercises as well as diet and lifestyle modifications to improve your overall health.

Experts recommend chiropractic treatment.

The Manga Report, a major health study commissioned by the Ministry of Ontario, Canada, has recommended that low back pain sufferers be given chiropractic care over medical care. Researchers found that "on evidence, particularly the most scientifically valid clinical studies, spinal manipulation applied by chiropractors is shown to be more effective than alternative treatments for low back pain."

Further findings:

- "Patients are very satisfied with chiropractic management of low back pain and considerably less satisfied with physician management."

- "There is an overwhelming body of evidence indicating that chiropractic management of low back pain is more cost-effective than medical management."
