Our Holistic Approach
Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, chiropractors aim to improve health through manipulation of joints and muscles restoring good communication between the brain and the rest of the body through the spine. At Optimal Spine & Mobility we combine techniques like joint adjustment, acupuncture, massage, exercise, and nutritional advice to create a wellness plan unique to each individual. This type of full-body healing strategy targets the root causes of a condition and provides freedom from persistent negative symptoms.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care isn’t just about spinal manipulation though! It involves the nervous system and every part of your body. The overall goal of chiropractic care is to improve musculoskeletal health, which impacts your daily function and quality of life.
​
In the chiropractic world, we don’t use drugs to treat our patients. While supplementation and nutrition are almost always a part of the bigger picture, drugs and prescriptions can be viewed as bandaids to treat symptoms rather than treating the source of the problem. Chiropractic treats the problem naturally and in turn prompts the body to heal itself.

Benefits of Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used to treat a great many ailments for 5,000 years. The ancient Chinese healers believed that acupuncture helped restore the balance of a mysterious life energy known as qi. Proper qi flow was essential for good health, so whenever an injury or other problems disrupted that flow, pain and sickness was the result.
​
Modern studies indicate that the acupuncture needles stimulate the release of calcium from muscles, which in turn triggers the production of endorphins, the body's natural painkilling substances. This makes acupuncture especially attractive for chronic pain sufferers who can't take certain painkilling medications, or those who simply prefer a drug-free solution to their pain issues.
