stretching and strengthening; nutritional assessment; or decompression therapy.

“Our motto is, we have something for that,” Dr. Niki said. “We go beyond chiropractic, to work with you to bring total wellness to your body.”

Gentle Force doctors use the activator technique, as well as full-spine, which ensures each care plan is as unique as the individual. An activator is an adjusting instrument that offers a gentle, low-force and specific adjustment for treatment of TMJ or extremity discomfort.

“I love when patients say, ‘How did you know my knee was hurting?’” Dr. Niki said. “As we use the activator analysis to scan the entire body, we are able to determine any segment of the spine that is not in proper alignment, including joints not in position, so we can adjust and correct the issue.”

Dr. Niki, Dr. Jack Dahlhauser, Dr. Brent Greene and Dr. Betsy Carlo-Vega are Life University graduates with more than 50 years’ experience combined in chiropractic care.

Dr. Niki is advanced-proficient in the activator technique and her associates, Dr. Greene and Dr. Carlo-Vega, also are activator-technique proficient. Dr. Dahlhauser is a former Life University instructor and uses the Thompson and Gonstead adjusting techniques.

The doctors are trained in prenatal and pediatric care, and can create a lifestyle of wellness from infancy to geriatric. Gentle Force Integrative Health offers therapeutic massage therapy by licensed therapist Tamatha Willis, along with therapeutic exercise and stretching with Dawn Mitchell, CPT, CNC and CSF.
