We take a holistic approach to your health.

Chiropractic is a critical component of care offered in our Grand Junction, Clifton and Montrose office. Chiropractic addresses subluxation, or misalignment of the spine.

Subluxation disrupts the body’s ability to function properly, as it impacts every cell, tissue, organ, muscle and bodily system. Symptoms may include headaches, digestive issues, numbness and tingling.

We practice various techniques and technology.

Traditional chiropractic treatments are done by hand. The doctor adjusts the vertebrae by delivering a specific force to the spine. However, sometimes this manual procedure cannot be done fast enough to counteract the body’s muscles “tightening up.”

In our office, we use an instrument developed by NASA called the ProAdjuster 360, which allows the patient to remain seated during an adjustment with no twisting, turning, popping or cracking. This gentle approach is ideal for those who are nervous about traditional adjustments, or have osteoporosis or other conditions.

With the ProAdjuster 360, the doctor scans the spine to find where it isn’t moving properly and adjusts only the misaligned vertebrae. When the machine senses something move, it stops adjusting automatically. The doctor will perform a second scan after the adjustment to ensure a change was made. All of these scans and adjustments are displayed via graphs on a computer screen right in front of you!
