Chiropractic

We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Christopher Evans has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.

As a school of healing, chiropractic is defined as the diagnosis and treatment of human ailments without the use of drugs or surgery. It includes, but is not limited to the manipulation of the spine and other joints to restore or maintain proper alignment. Keeping joints aligned properly preserves the structure of the body and reduces the severity of arthritis, inflammation and pain often associated with aging, sedentary lifestyle or a physically demanding profession.

Chiropractors align the vertebrae of the spine and the joints of the body with chiropractic adjustments. Our center utilizes a state of the art ProAdjuster instrument to adjust the spine and joints gently, safely, precisely, and effectively. Cyclist Lance Armstrong, golfer Tiger Woods, and Natural Cures author, Kevin Trudeau, will all tell you to visit a chiropractor regularly if you want to perform at your greatest capacity.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy offers a natural conservative treatment approach  that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients.  The benefits of massage  therapy may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling,  relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aid in recovery and range of motion.

Our Center offers several types of massage therapy/bodywork. Often several techniques are blended together to provide the perfect custom therapy your body needs.

Deep tissue / Myofascial release is needed when tight connective tissue has formed from poor posture, old injury or hard physical work.

Cross Fiber / Trigger point is excellent for healing damaged muscle tissue from old injuries or repetitive use activities like running, weight lifting or typing.

Pregnancy massage is also offered for the relief of fatigue, back ache and the related stress of pregnancy.    

Ashiatsu is a centuries old Asian technique that involves the therapist using their feet to provide deep healing compression to relieve stubborn muscle aches in a non-painful way. This technique is the most frequently requested.

Two Therapist Massage: How do you get twice the bodywork in the same amount of time? Two therapists working harmoniously together provide an unforgettable experience. Warning: this method will forever spoil you.

Personal Training and Corrective Exercising

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their ownunique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health .

The unique difference we offer anyone signing up for personal training sessions is the initial evaluation and supervision by a doctor. The doctor will perform a muscle balance, strength evaluation, and diet evaluation in order to custom design a workout / training program that will quickly help achieve your goals.

Detoxification and Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

Each day we come in contact with 80,000 human-made chemicals. They come to us in food, beverages, medication, personal products applied to the skin or hair and the list goes on and on. All those environmental chemicals contribute to the body’s toxic load. Toxic overload can lead to degenerative disease, pain, inflammation, premature aging and weight gain. For effective natural immunity, wellness, the body needs to reach a balance between absorption of nutrients and excretion of wastes and toxins. Our center has created a very thorough detoxification program named Fresh Start.

Fresh Start consists of four sessions over a month which includes:
