Gonstead Technique
The Gonstead Technique is a precise chiropractic method that uses X-rays, motion palpation, and visualization to identify and correct spinal misalignments. This approach targets nerve interference, alleviating pain and improving overall health. Patients benefit from tailored adjustments that promote natural healing without medication or surgery.
Back Pain Relief
Our clinic specializes in treating chronic and acute back pain through targeted chiropractic adjustments. By addressing spinal subluxations and muscle imbalances, we reduce inflammation and restore mobility. Patients experience lasting relief and improved quality of life through non-invasive care.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Pediatric chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal issues in infants and children, addressing developmental delays and improving nervous system function. Gentle adjustments support healthy growth and can alleviate issues like nursing difficulties and sleep disturbances.
Sciatica Relief
Sciatica treatment involves precise adjustments to relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve caused by spinal misalignments. This reduces radiating pain, numbness, and tingling in the legs. Patients regain mobility and comfort through targeted, evidence-based care.

Prenatal chiropractic care addresses spinal stress and pelvic imbalances during pregnancy. Specialized adjustments improve comfort, reduce labor complications, and support the mothers nervous system health. Safe and effective care is provided using modified techniques for expectant mothers.

Dr Rick is the Chiropractor that Chiropractors go to. He's informative, thorough, professional and caring, and he tells it like it is. I've been to other Chiropractors and the difference is like night and day. I'd recommend him to any family or friend or anyone in need.

I gave birth to my son in 2017 and a year later I was still dealing with neck pain which I believe was caused from delivering him and nursing. After seeing three different chiropractors over a years time, I finally saw Dr. Rick and felt some relief! About three appointments in, my pain was almost completely gone! He is committed to chiropractic care and isnt into all the extra fluff that many chiros push such as physical therapy, acupuncture, supplements, etc! My appointments with Dr Rick are 1/3 of the time I was spending with other chiros- which is helpful for a mom of a toddler! Now that

He is the most effective chiropractor for my herniated/bulging disc issue. the adjustments and treatment is a little different than regular chiropractors, but it works better.
