Dr. Stephen Price and Dr. Katie Manning begin each auto injury treatment with a comprehensive exam, taking into account all of the nuances of your accident, assessing the severity and areas of impact, and considering the resulting soft tissue injuries, as well as noting any structural changes that may have occurred during the collision. From there, they will determine whether x-rays are necessary and then ultimately design a course of treatment suited to your particular injuries and availability to treatment. They will periodically review your symptoms and revise the treatment plan according to how you are responding to treatment and whether there is anything else we can add (exercises, etc.) to further your healing process.

Results Chiropractic sees a variety of patients who have lost essential spinal curves. If spinal curvature problems aren’t properly treated, they can lead to early degeneration and other negative side effects later in life. Individuals don’t know that there are treatments that can give them relief from bad spinal curves. We focus on correcting bad and poor spinal curves so they can regain their proper curvature while balancing surrounding soft tissues of the spine.
Abnormal spine curves and the loss of spinal curves is a serious issue that should not be ignored because they can’t be healed without professional help. Loss of proper spinal curves puts pressure on other joints and can lead to spinal decay and arthritis. This condition is also connected to headaches, lower back pain, sciatica, heart, and lung problems. A chiropractor can check your spine regularly so going to them is just as important as going to the dentist or getting screened for cancer. Making appointments frequently with your trusted chiropractor ensures your spine is working well.
