What
do chiropractors do?
Chiropractors are doctors who are governed by a regulatory body appointed
by statute in Canada and in the U.S. Chiropractors treat neuro-musculoskeletal
conditions, primarily of the spine, using spinal adjustments. The chiropractic
adjustment facilitates the return of a joint to its normal function,
relieving back pain, headache and other related conditions. Chiropractic
care offers a natural, holistic approach to health care. It can help
provide relief from many of today's common health problems such as:
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Headache
- Sports-related injuries
When
should I visit a chiropractor?
Chiropractic care can provide highly effective treatment of headaches,
neck and back pain, as well as other conditions such as stiff joints,
tendinitis and arthritis. It is safe, medication free and non-invasive.
If you have recently experienced an injury, you may want to visit our
clinic. Many types of musculoskeletal injuries related to motor vehicle
accidents and occupational or recreational activities can be successfully
managed through chiropractic care. Research has shown that chiropractic
care is effective in the treatment of low back and neck pain.

are our fees?
