Most Chiropractic Care Focuses on Where It Hurts. We Look at Why It Keeps Happening.
Rather than relying on symptoms alone, we use objective measurements to understand what may be contributing to your pain and determine whether corrective care is right for you
1. Measure
2. Identify
3. Correct
Digital X-Rays + Structural Analysis
Evaluate spinal alignment, posture, and movement to uncover problems that may be missed by a symptom-only approach.
What’s Contributing to Your Pain
Your findings help us identify structural and functional issues that may be connected to recurring pain.
Build Your Personalized Care Plan
If you’re a candidate, we’ll develop a corrective plan designed around your findings and measurable goals.
Start with a one-on-one consultation. No commitment to begin care.
Don’t Just Feel The Difference. Measure It.
Corrective care isn’t based on guesswork. When appropriate, follow-up imaging and structural measurements allow us to objectively track changes in spinal alignment throughout care.
Individual results vary. Imaging and treatment recommendations are based on each patient’s individual clinical findings.

“After 30 Years Of Neck Pain, I Finally Saw Real Progress.”
“After living with neck pain from an old injury for more than 30 years, I finally decided to try chiropractic care. Dr. Catherine and Dr. Palmer took detailed X-rays, explained exactly what was causing my pain, and created a personalized Chiropractic Biophysics treatment plan that included adjustments, traction, and corrective exercises. Within 12 weeks, not only had my neck pain improved significantly, but follow-up X-rays showed measurable structural changes. Seeing objective proof of my progress gave me confidence that I was correcting the problem—not just temporarily relieving it.”
What stood out most:
✔ Significant neck pain relief after decades of discomfort
✔ Digital X-rays that measure real structural progress
✔ Research-based Chiropractic Biophysics care
✔ Thorough doctors with an efficient, caring team

Why Your Pain Keeps Coming Back
Temporary Relief Isn’t The Same As Correction
Many people feel better after an adjustment, massage, or other treatment, but if the underlying cause of the problem isn’t identified, the pain often comes back.
That’s why some people find themselves needing the same treatment over and over again.
Our Corrective Care Difference
Instead of focusing only on where you hurt today, we begin with a detailed evaluation that may include posture analysis, spinal measurements, movement testing, and digital X-rays when appropriate.
If corrective chiropractic care is the right fit, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan designed to improve spinal function, posture, and long-term health—not just provide temporary relief.
Conditions We Commonly Help
If you’ve tried chiropractic before but your pain keeps returning, it may be because the underlying cause was never fully evaluated.
Neck Pain
Recurring neck pain, stiffness, and limited mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes us different from other chiropractors?
Most chiropractic offices focus primarily on providing temporary symptom relief through adjustments. We take a corrective approach by using digital X-rays, detailed spinal analysis, and Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) to identify and address the underlying structural issues that may be contributing to your pain, posture problems, and recurring symptoms.
What is Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP)?
Chiropractic BioPhysics® is one of the most researched corrective chiropractic techniques available. CBP focuses on improving spinal alignment, posture, and overall function through a combination of precise chiropractic adjustments, corrective exercises, and customized rehabilitation strategies designed to create long-term improvements rather than short-term relief.
What conditions do you help with?
We commonly work with patients experiencing neck pain, back pain, headaches, migraines, sciatica, posture problems, disc-related conditions, mobility limitations, and recurring pain that hasn’t responded well to other approaches. Every patient receives a personalized evaluation to determine whether corrective chiropractic care may be appropriate for their specific situation.
Do I need X-rays?
Not every patient requires X-rays. If clinically necessary, digital X-rays may be recommended to help us better understand your spinal alignment, posture, and overall spinal health. This allows us to make more informed recommendations and create a treatment plan based on objective findings rather than guesswork.
What happens during the free consultation?
During your consultation, you’ll meet one-on-one to discuss your health history, symptoms, concerns, and goals. The purpose of the consultation is to determine whether you may be a good candidate for corrective chiropractic care and what next steps, if any, would be appropriate for your situation.
How do I know if I’m a candidate for care?
The consultation is designed to help answer that question. We will evaluate your concerns, discuss your health goals, and determine whether our corrective approach is likely to be a good fit for your needs. If it is, he’ll explain the recommended next steps. If not, he’ll help guide you in the right direction.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. We work with many insurance plans, and our team can help verify your benefits and explain your coverage. We recommend scheduling a consultation so we can discuss your situation and help you understand your available options.
How many visits will I need?
Every patient is different. The number of visits depends on factors such as your condition, spinal health, goals, and how long you’ve been experiencing symptoms. Following your evaluation, we will provide personalized recommendations based on your specific findings.
Can chiropractic care improve posture?
Yes. Poor posture is often associated with abnormal spinal alignment and increased stress on the body. Through Chiropractic BioPhysics® corrective care, we focus on improving posture, spinal function, and overall biomechanics to support better long-term health and movement.
I’ve tried other treatments without success. Can you still help?
Many of our patients come to us after trying other treatments that failed to provide lasting results. While every case is unique and results cannot be guaranteed, our approach focuses on identifying and addressing underlying structural issues that may have been overlooked elsewhere. The first step is determining whether you’re a good candidate through a consultation with our team.
