Services & Techniques

At Active Body Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic care to each and every patient. We are committed to helping patients get healthy and stay healthy by  treating the whole person. The body has an amazing innate ability to heal itself without us telling it what to do.

If there is a misalignment in your spine, there is a possibility that the nerves become compressed or “pinched”. As a result, the extra pressure on the nerve may affect its function in your body. We call this a subluxation.

When you have subluxations in your spine, then your body can not perform at its optimum. You may experience back pain or headaches, but there may be other symptoms that you have which you may not realize are caused by misalignment of your spine.

The science of chiropractic is based on correcting these subluxations which restores balance in your body. Restoring this balance in your nervous system enables your innate to heal and function at its optimal best which allows you to be more active and enjoy a healthier lifestyle.
