Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on restoring joint mobility and treating neuromusculoskeletal conditions through manual adjustments. We address restricted joint motion caused by meniscoid entrapments from poor posture or scar tissue. Techniques include diversified adjustments and mobilization to separate joint surfaces, relieve pain, and improve function. Patients benefit from complementary soft tissue therapies to address contributing factors like muscle weakness or adhesions.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy uses low-level light to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation without heat or discomfort. This non-invasive treatment accelerates healing for conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, and sports injuries by enhancing blood flow and lymphatic drainage. Patients experience pain relief for chronic issues like plantar fasciitis and acute injuries such as sprains, with sessions lasting 10-20 minutes as part of comprehensive care plans.
Graston Technique
The Graston Technique employs stainless-steel instruments to detect and break down scar tissue in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This evidence-based method improves range of motion and reduces pain for chronic conditions like tennis elbow or post-surgical adhesions. Combined with stretching protocols, it accelerates recovery by increasing blood flow and cellular activity in affected areas, often resolving issues within 4-6 sessions.
Kinesio Taping
Kinesio Taping provides muscle and joint support while maintaining full range of motion through elastic cotton tape. This technique reduces pain and inflammation by microscopically lifting skin to improve lymphatic drainage. Custom applications address specific conditions like patellar tracking disorders or shoulder instability, with tape remaining effective for 3-5 days during physical activity and bathing.
The Recovery Suite
The Recovery Suite offers self-pay recovery services including HyperIce Compression, Cupping, and NormaTec leg sleeves. Designed for athletes and active individuals, these treatments enhance circulation, reduce muscle soreness, and accelerate post-exercise recovery. Memberships and session packages provide access to modalities that complement traditional therapies for optimal performance and injury prevention.

Amazing work. I have a knee and heel issue I never thought to check with a chiropractor for a knee issue. But the problem was found and I am being treated. It's working! Hard to believe my foot doctor could not find the issue.

I have been going to Back to Health for years, every time something is out of whack--my neck, my back, hip joints. Dr. LeMoullec is truly a gifted practitioner. He uses both acupuncture and chiropractic techniques to get you back to normal quickly, often after just one visit. I can't recommend him and the Back to Health practice enough. Don't hesitate. The minute you feel stiff or the slightest pain, call Dr. LeMoullec, you will be glad you did!

I have been going to Back to Health since they were located in Woodbury, and I have to say I have never been more happy with a chiropractor. Dr Eric and Kaitlyn both are phenomenal and so friendly. They have helped me with a myriad of back, shoulder, neck, and even jaw problems. Eric was the first doctor I was comfortable enough considering acupuncture for, and I have zero regrets. 10/10, 5 stars every time!

In high school I went to many many physical therapists and sports doctors to fix my hip issues from playing soccer. None of them could help me! This was the only place that had the know-how to work my body back into health. They saved my high school soccer career and my ability to do all of the physical activities I love. Thank you Back to Health! Thank you Dr. Erik!
