Our Chiropractic Techniques
Because our emphasis is on helping the person not just the pain, chiropractor Gary has made it his point to be trained to the highest standard in many different techniques. There is not one magic cure to help everyone. That’s why your treatment is tailored to you.
If you’ve been to a chiropractor before and prefer to be adjusted in a particular way, let us know. Together we can make the right choices to get you moving again. Remember: “move better, live better.”
