Chiropractic Services
Our Comprehensive Approach
Our Chiropractic services offer a comprehensive and holistic approach to understanding and addressing the various underlying
causes of pain and discomfort that individuals may experience.
Whether it's due to an injury, improper biomechanics, stress, overuse, or even dietary factors, these elements can significantly
contribute to bodily discomfort. Injuries, both acute and chronic, often lead to misalignments that can cause pain.
- Improper Biomechanics such as poor posture or repetitive movements may strain certain areas of the body, leading to discomfort.
- Stress can manifest physically, creating tension and tightness in muscles.
- Overuse of certain muscle groups or joints can result in strains or inflammation.
- Dietary Choices can impact inflammation levels in the body, influencing overall wellness and pain thresholds.
Chiropractic care addresses these issues by realigning the body, relieving tension, improving joint mobility, and offering guidance on lifestyle changes. Treating these factors is crucial to the healing process, not only in alleviating immediate discomfort but also in preventing future issues and promoting overall wellness.
Chiropractic Services & Techniques
The following therapies (techniques) are used by both Dr. Lockwood and Dr. Jeffers to address the cause of pain and to allow for the greatest healing possible.

Extremity Adjusting
The body’s extremities include the joints beyond the spine. Namely: the ribs, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles, feet, as well as the fingers and toes.

Activator/Erchonia Adjuster
Both the Activator and Erchonia Adjuster are instruments that are used during treatment in order to get a more focused adjustment. Because they deliver gentle, yet high-speed impulses, these instruments help increase proper nerve communication throughout the body. As a result, this helps to significantly resolve muscle and joint pain and dysfunction.

Drop Table
The drop table is a gentle and effective way of treating back and neck pain. In fact, this treatment can be especially great for patients who may be uncomfortable during a traditional adjustment.

Massage Therapy
Our doctors may also suggest therapeutic massage in conjunction with your current treatment plan(s) and therapies. Massage is a great standalone therapy, but combining massage and chiropractic elevates each therapy and improves a patient’s recovery and healing. For this reason, we have highly trained massage therapists available at our office. All of whom can help you progress in your healing journey.

Erchonia Precursor
The Erchonia Percussor is an instrument that delivers waves of percussive impulses into muscles, ligaments, and joints. This helps to further reduce muscle soreness and improve circulation.

Soft Tissue Therapy
Generally, soft tissue therapy is used to treat the body for repetitive-use syndromes. For example: carpal tunnel syndrome; low back and neck pain; tendonitis; ankle sprains; and pulled muscles.

Therapeutic Exercises
In addition to chiropractic care, you will also be encouraged to stretch and strengthen your body, especially the muscles that you use daily. As a result, this combination of exercise and treatment is likely to further propel the healing process in a positive direction.

Laser Therapy
Beyond spinal adjustments, we are also able to offer healing through Low Level Laser Therapy. In short, this therapy promotes healing in many conditions, such as chronic or acute pain, as well as joint and neurological conditions.

Graston Technique
This instrument-assisted procedure is used to detect and release painful restrictions of the tissue. This is an especially good option for extremity pain such as shin splints, rotator cuff pain, and tendonitis.
