Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to alleviate nerve interference and restore proper bodily function. This non-invasive technique effectively addresses back pain, neck pain, and headaches through manual manipulation. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced inflammation, and accelerated healing without pharmaceutical intervention.
Acupuncture Therapy
Acupuncture treatments utilize ultra-thin needles to stimulate specific meridian points and restore energy flow throughout the body. This ancient practice addresses chronic pain conditions, stress-related disorders, and systemic imbalances. Patients experience natural pain relief and improved wellness through our expertly administered sessions.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy employs controlled suction to increase circulation, release muscle tension, and promote detoxification. This modality effectively treats chronic pain conditions and sports injuries by stimulating blood flow to affected areas. Patients receive targeted relief from muscle stiffness and improved range of motion.
Tui Na Massage
Tui Na massage combines deep tissue manipulation with acupressure techniques to address musculoskeletal issues. This therapeutic approach relieves chronic pain, improves circulation, and restores structural balance through targeted manual therapy. Patients benefit from customized sessions addressing specific areas of concern.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion utilizes controlled heat application to stimulate energy flow and enhance acupuncture treatments. This traditional technique warms meridian channels to alleviate cold-related conditions and improve circulation.

Report
Dr. Scrham really is the best chiropractor I've ever had. I was experiencing moderate-to-severe neck, shoulder, back, and tailbone pain for months before I first visited him, and after just a few weekly sessions, the pain was all but gone. A few months after that first visit, I feel right as rain. I also like that (if you're open to it) he can incorporate other healing modalities into the chiropractic session (for example, a short meditation to help relieve tailbone pain). I've already recommended one friend to him, and will continue to recommend others. Someday, I hope to try

Most chiros are quacks, a few are good mechanics... Dr. Schram is an artist & healer. Come here to end your long term relationship with pain.

Dr Schram is the closest thing to a miracle worker that exists. He's my first call for any pain, sleep issues or stress.

That's how I feel about acupuncture. I saw Dr David Allen, MD in the early 1990s when in Santa Monica. The situation resolved itself and I did not get acupuncture for 27 years. Well now I'm 47 and in the throes of Perimenopause. The jerks at Blue Cross Blue Shield don't want to cover my HRT and I still haven't gotten the script for the stupid thing they want me to try first. Special place in hell for health insurance companies, whose entire goal in life

I have been suffering from severe headaches, pain and numbness since July 2013, the passed 5 years, daily and as time passed things only got worse. I had taken over 10 different medical exams, hospital visits, seen over 20 different medical providers and taken over 30 different medications, yet no one seemed to know what the issue was or reason for my pain. Since my first visit with Dr. Schram I immediately noticed a difference. He knew exactly where and what was causing the pain. I am glad to say I am on the road to recovery ALL because of Dr. Schram. I highly recommend visiting him. Dr. Schram

No matter how bad my pain has been, Dr. Schram always makes me to feel better. After a recent diagnosis of degenerative cervical discs and two months of failed physical therapy, I am happy to say that after three acupuncture sessions with Dr. Schram, I finally feel some relief from the pain. Dr. Schram is a true healer, an excellent diagnostician and he surround himself with a caring and supportive staff that complements his chiropractic and acupuncture treatments. Thank you, Dr. Schram.
