Chiropractic Care

A chiropractor makes adjustments to your body. When force is applied to a joint, it puts everything back into place, relieving pressure on your nerves. If the nerves are irritated by a joint that’s out of alignment, it will cause pain, tension and other problems.

The adjustment is designed to restore the body’s natural function, allowing your nervous system to work at its highest potential. In turn, you’ll be able to heal and return to your normal state.

You’ll Have Everything Explained to You First

Dr. Funk will go over everything about the adjustment to you before you get started. The goal is to align you so that your joints, muscles and everything in the body works exactly as it should. You’ll learn about all potential risks and side effects, as well as any other options that are appropriate for you. All your questions will be answered before you get adjusted.

For your adjustment, there are a variety of chiropractic techniques that Dr. Funk is skilled in applying. These include

  • Diversified
  • Gonstead

  • Thompson
  • Activator®

  • Pierce-Stillwagon
  • Extremity adjusting

Your entire body can be adjusted, including shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. If an extremity is adjusted, Dr. Funk may use muscle stretching, traction mobilization and drop table adjusting.

Along with your adjustment, Dr. Funk may recommend a form of therapy. Here are the ones available at our office:

Interferential therapy

Also known as electric muscle stimulation, this therapy reduces pain and muscle spasms while increasing mobility and function.

Heat Therapy

A heating pad may be applied to a particular area of the body to relax muscles before you get an adjustment.

Intersegmental Traction

You may have heard of a “roller table.” Traction is designed to improve joint mobility and decompress your spine. It will allow you to feel less tight, with decreased pressure on the discs and nerves.

Hydro Massage Table

This water table uses heat and massage. It helps to improve circulation while reducing muscle tension and stress.

Ultrasound

A deep form of heat, ultrasound will reduce inflammation, improve your mobility and enhance your healing and function.

Massage Therapy Available

We have two massage therapists on our staff. Both use various massage techniques. With a massage, you can experience benefits such as greater mobility, less muscle tightness and better overall health and wellness. Massage therapy is a fantastic complement to your chiropractic adjustment.

Custom-Made Orthotics

We offer orthotics through Foot Levelers, which are designed to support your feet. Without support, you can experience problems in your ankles, knees, hips and low back. Orthotics can improve your structure so that your adjustment holds longer and your body functions better.

In the office, you can purchase products such as

  • Supplements
  • Natural muscle relaxers
  • Pain-relieving gel

  • Orthopedic supports
  • At-home rehab products

  • TENS units
  • Cervical pillows
