Consultation

During your consultation, we will dive deeper into your health history and discuss any concerns you have and health goals you wish to achieve.

We will share what nerve interference is and how nervous system focused chiropractic care can facilitate healing within your body. We are always willing and available to answer any questions you may have.

Assessment

Our thorough, neurological assessment allows us to find, measure, and quantify how much stress and tension may be stuck within your autonomic nervous system. We utilize state-of-the-art technology that was developed by NASA and is non-invasive. It obtains information from the nervous system in a similar way an EKG obtains information from the heart.

Our three diagnostic scans are the neuroTHERMAL which assesses the nerves, the neuroCORE which assesses the muscles, as well as the neuroPULSE which assesses heart rate variability to determine subluxation, dysautonomia, and vagus nerve dysfunction.

X-rays

To get the most complete picture of your spinal health, X-rays may be recommended by our doctors following your neurological assessment. Our on-site X-ray suite allows our doctors to see the actual structure of your spine and when paired with our INSiGHT technology, they have a full view of both the function and structure of your spine, identifying the location and severity of any misalignments that may be contributing to nerve interference in your body.

Chiropractic postural X-rays are low-radiation and quick, and they give our doctors the precision needed to deliver specific, effective care tailored to your spine which is never a one-size-fits-all approach.

X-rays are not required for all practice members. They are not typically recommended for children under 10 or pregnant mamas.
