Chiropractic Care
We believe in giving each patient an individual and personalized approach to their care. Each person’s condition, health history, and lifestyle is different and we take all of that into account when creating your treatment plan. Our goal is to give each patient the best possible care, with the fastest recovery options, in the most cost-effective way possible. We don’t believe in giving patients long drawn out treatment plans. We treat each patient the way we would want our family to be treated.
What techniques do you use to adjust?
Dr. Allen is trained in a wide variety of adjusting techniques. We have patients from new-born, to nearly 100 years old and all ages in between. We use the traditional hands on “manual technique” as well as a light force instrumental “activator” technique. Our office uses high tech tables that have directional drops, and well as specific traction for more complicated conditions such as sciatica and disc issues. We believe that having a large “tool bag” of adjusting options allows us to treat many different patients and conditions with the most effective and efficient treatment options possible.
Physiotherapy / Sports Injury / Rehab
Dr. Allen has a history of training and work in the physiotherapy and rehab realm. He has incorporated that into the practice which has been great for sports injury care, spine and extremity stabilization, as well as acute and chronic palliative care. Modalities include various muscle stimulation therapies, ultrasound therapies, spinal traction, manual therapy, massage, and resistive exercises and home care training.
X-Rays
We have onsite digital x-ray. Digital x-rays allow us immediate access to your images. Why do we take x-rays? To see is to know, rather than guess. We get to see the condition of the spine with relation to degermation, arthritis, congenital abnormalities, bone pathologies, and alignment issues, all of which impact your treatment plan and your health. Not all patients will need x-rays, but having the ability to access those immediately when needed is extremely important.
