Chiropractic is a branch of the health field that specializes in the integrity of the body's nervous, muscular and skeletal systems. Interference with these systems impairs the body's normal functions and lowers its resistance to disease. Chiropractic treatment is based on the importance of maintaining unhampered flow. Chiropractic joint manipulation, or adjustment, is a treatment that is applied directly to the spine to separate the joints, allowing a gas bubble to escape. This relieves the pressure on the joint and surrounding nerves, allowing your spine to return to its proper position.

Massage Therapy melts away stress and tension relieving associated headaches and muscular tension. By encouraging the body's own healing process to act, Massage Therapy reduces injury healing time. Massage Therapy aids in the healing process of injury or over-use and is an excellent form of preventative health care.

Traditional acupuncture originated in China about 5 000 years ago and is a complex system of examination, diagnosis and treatment. Acupuncture is a healing art and science which analyzes the entire human being in bodymindspirit. The basic theory of acupuncture is based on a life force energy called Ch'i. The Acupuncturist is trained to recognize the process of health and illness and works with herbs and needles to restore the flow of Ch'i. If the energy is not flowing properly, then there exists disharmony and imbalance. This is illness.

Acupuncture is a safe and effective treatment for countless ailments and symptoms including, but not limited to, intestinal dysfunction, loss of energy, weight management, addiction, sleep disturbances and musculoskeletal injury.
