Because of my vast experience in athletic training and sports injuries, extra spinal adjustments (extremities) are an integral part of my practice. After the birth of my child, I naturally became interested in pediatric chiropractic. I have taken numerous seminars on the care and treatment of infants and children. I wholeheartedly believe and ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This is especially true in a growing spine. If we are to truly maintain optimal health, we must start in childhood, when most of our injuries occur.

Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
