Personalized Chiropractic Exam and Treatment Plan
Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, natural treatment that targets pain at its source. Many individuals and families that suffer from debilitating back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, migraines, muscle strains and other similar conditions visit Elite Personalized Medicine for help. In many cases, the source of these issues is a misalignment of the spine and musculoskeletal system – the bones, muscles, joints, tendons, cartilage, ligaments and other connective tissue.
Effective chiropractic care involves diagnosis and treatment of these alignment problems using spinal and joint manipulation. Using the hands to adjust misalignment issues, our chiropractor ensures patients can experience a better range of movement with reduced pain and less inflammation. Chiropractic care works with the body’s natural ability to heal itself, often reducing the need for surgery or medication.

An Overview of Our Chiropractic Treatments
Back Pain
Back pain is a common issue. It can result from sports injuries, strains, accidents and even bad posture. Patients may also suffer from sciatica – a shooting pain that travels from the lower back and down the leg or legs. In response, a chiropractor will manipulate your joints and soft tissue to improve spinal alignment.
Shoulder Pain
The shoulder is a complex joint that can experience a wide range of injuries. Rotator cuff tears, dislocation, frozen shoulder, impingement and cartilage tears are just some of the common injuries. Your chiropractor can identify the source of the issue and provide effective treatment, including strengthening exercises that aid with rehabilitation.
Repetitive Strain Injuries
Repetitive strain injuries (RSI) can be caused by continuous movements like using a mouse, typing and playing sports. Chiropractic care for RSI involves addressing the joints and removing soft tissue strain to allow a better range of movement.
Disc Injuries
Disc injuries, such as a herniated disc, can be caused by lifting heavy items, repetitive movements, genetics, aging and other factors. Chiropractic care can relieve much of the pain of a disc injury by manipulating the spine and using other techniques to take pressure off the disc.
Additional Conditions Chiropractic Care Can Treat
- Head and neck pain, including pain caused by headaches, migraines and whiplash
- Family chiropractic care to treat children’s chiropractic issues, scoliosis, vertigo and ear infections
- Pain in the arms and legs from carpal tunnel syndrome or other causes
