Chiropractic Manipulation

This non-invasive therapy effectively treats neck, back, and extremity pain by improving spinal alignment and reducing nerve interference. Our practitioners tailor techniques to individual needs using diversified, activator, and low-force methods.
Spine Rehabilitation
Comprehensive rehabilitation programs addressing musculoskeletal imbalances and movement dysfunction. Our evidence-based protocols include core stabilization, flexibility training, and therapeutic exercises to restore function after injury or surgery while preventing future complications through biomechanical education.
Acupuncture

This ancient practice effectively manages chronic pain, stress-related conditions, and hormonal imbalances by triggering the body's innate capacity for self-regulation and tissue repair.

Report
Ive been seeing Dr. Meismer as needed for at least 10 years, with sometimes years between visits. She is knowledgeable, highly competent, and effective. My current insurance has limited coverage so I pay out of pocket and her rates are also extremely reasonable. Im grateful to know shes there for me when my back is out of sorts.

I have received chiropractic, massage, and acupuncture from City Center Chiropractic. The practitioners are evidence-based and can be holistic as well. Dr. Julie Miesmer is open and welcoming and is honest about what she can and cannot do for you - and encourages self-care and exercises. Angie's acupuncture is helpful, and she is informative about holistic ways to treat issues and offers supplements.
I have recommended Dr. Julie to a number of friends and family; most of them still see her as needed. My husband sees her as well, and he receives much-needed chiropractic and physical therapy assistance

I received acupuncture at city center chiropractic back in 4/2013...at least that is what my bill that I received in the mail with statement date 9/8/2016. This is ridiculous. I have new insurance, new bank accounts, etc. now this will be a chore to look into. I do remember them having a "billing" problem back when I was receiving services and my acupuncturist assuring me that she would clear things up. I can't even fully remember the conversation. Keep your receipts!
