Chiropractic care is a form of health care that emphasizes the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of physical problems related to our muscle and skeletal systems, especially the spine. It is a natural method of health care focusing on the cause of a pain rather then treating the pain itself. Chiropractic care operates on the premise that our overall general health is directly affected by our nervous system or spine. When the spine is out of alignment it can cause pain sensations throughout other parts of the body and can negatively affect how our body heals itself. A well aligned and healthy functioning spine allows our bodies to be more equipped to heal themselves.

A chiropractic adjustment, referred to as spinal adjustment or spinal manipulation, is the gentle correction of a subluxation (bone out of alignment). It is performed manually or with a device to relieve the pressure on the nerves, thereby normalizing proper function and optimizing health.

We treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including back pain, neck pain, and headaches. We offer safe adjustments for infants and toddlers to improve colic, ear infections, fussiness, and more! We welcome pregnant mothers to reduce discomfort associated with pregnancy. Chiropractic care is essential for athletes to reduce muscle tightness, weakness, and pain. Chiropractic care is also beneficial for seniors by offering improved mobility, better balance, and overall wellness.

The number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and their condition. Our chiropractor will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan. It does take time to retrain your muscles, tendons, and ligaments to return to or maintain the proper position. However, we do not believe in having patients sign long-term contracts. If we think chiropractic is not best suited for your particular situation, we will help direct you to the appropriate provider.

Yes, we accept most insurance plans. Contact us for more information about coverage and payment options.

Dr. Brendan D.C. performs a consultation and an examination that are necessary to determine if chiropractic can help your condition. If not, you may be referred to another specialist who might be able to help. In any event, your health and happiness are our primary goal.

Yes! Advanced Chiropractic has treated hundreds of patients involved in unfortunate injuries suffered both at work and in car accidents. Many injuries sustained in these accidents respond to chiropractic care. Dr. Brendan D.C. will perform the necessary exams and/or tests to determine the cause of the symptoms. We work with other health professionals when needed (MRI studies, CAT scans, etc.) to determine the best treatment for your condition. Both work injuries and auto accidents are covered 100% by insurance. One thing to keep in mind is that symptoms from injuries may take some time to show up. You may have symptoms occur weeks or months after a musculoskeletal injury.

We function differently from other chiropractors because we know that to offer the best treatment possible it takes longer than a couple of minutes. Chiropractors get a bad wrap for the "crack them and stack them" approach-meaning adjust quickly then move on. We don't practice in that fashion.
