Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to alleviate pain and improve nervous system function. This hands-on therapy addresses back pain, neck pain, and headaches through precise manual techniques. Patients benefit from improved mobility and reduced inflammation without pharmaceutical intervention.
Physical Therapy
Customized physical therapy programs restore strength and mobility after injuries or surgeries. Our licensed therapists use targeted exercises and manual therapy to treat extremity conditions and post-surgical recovery needs. Treatment plans emphasize functional restoration and long-term wellness.
Shockwave Therapy
This non-invasive treatment uses high-energy sound waves to accelerate healing in musculoskeletal tissues. Effective for chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow, it stimulates blood flow and tissue regeneration without surgery or medication.
Auto Injury Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for auto accident injuries combines chiropractic care with physical therapy. We document traumatic injuries for insurance purposes while providing pain management and functional restoration. Our team works with personal injury attorneys to support legal cases.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to penetrate deep tissues, reducing inflammation and promoting healing. This modality effectively treats soft tissue injuries, muscle strains, and joint conditions while enhancing circulation and flexibility.

Let me start just by saying WOW! The staff here are truly something else. They are so friendly and always welcome me in with a big fat SMILE! Rosie, Carmen, Sue, Nicole and Ahniya are just all the most Devine human beings I have ever crossed in my life. These staff never fail to put a smile on my face no matter how tough the day has been! Dr. Poller should consider himself blessed that he has hired such an incredible staff up front. Now on to Dr. Poller, a very companionate young man and takes his time to understand the needs of all of his clients. He knows no two cases are alike and treats each

Very rude doctor who refused to see me to a consultation because I wouldn't provide my social security number and personal information. There's no law stating that I have to provide that information to receive care. I came to drop off food for a consultation which I had no problem doing but they have no legal right to refuse care because I won't provide personal information.

Dr. Poller and Dr. Porter are amazing! I've had terrible headaches for years and they have helped me greatly. I feel better than I have in a really long time. I'm very happy and thankful! The office staff is wonderful too. I look forward to seeing them every week! The office is nice and clean and I never have to wait to get in.

I have been taking my daughter here for two months now. She is showing great improvement from a pinched nerve she has from playing soccer. The staff is friendly. The hours are flexible and accommodate working adults. Doctor Poller is great, since we did not have health insurance he worked out a payment plan for us. Don't expect to be healed after one visit. You're not gonna fix a broken bone in one day are you? But my daughter did feel immediate relief after her first adjustment, it was like magic.
