Back Pain Treatment
Our back pain treatment addresses chronic discomfort through spinal adjustments and soft tissue therapy. We target misalignments, muscle strains, and nerve compression to restore mobility and reduce inflammation. Patients experience lasting relief from conditions like herniated discs and sciatica through personalized care plans combining manual adjustments, therapeutic exercises, and lifestyle guidance.
Sciatica Relief
Sciatica relief focuses on alleviating nerve compression causing leg pain, numbness, and tingling. Using spinal manipulation, ultrasound therapy, and stretching routines, we reduce pressure on the sciatic nerve. Treatment plans address underlying causes like disc herniation or piriformis syndrome, promoting natural healing and preventing recurrence through targeted interventions.
Neck Pain Therapy
Neck pain therapy targets cervical spine issues from poor posture, injuries, or degenerative conditions. Gentle adjustments realign vertebrae while muscle relaxation techniques ease tension. We incorporate ergonomic advice and strengthening exercises to improve neck stability and prevent future discomfort through comprehensive, non-surgical interventions.
Work Injury Rehabilitation
Work injury rehabilitation restores function after job-related musculoskeletal trauma. Customized treatment combines spinal adjustments, soft tissue mobilization, and therapeutic exercises to accelerate healing. We collaborate with patients to modify work habits and implement preventive strategies, ensuring safe return to occupational duties without compromising long-term wellness.
Pregnancy Physical Therapy
Pregnancy physical therapy addresses biomechanical changes during gestation through gentle spinal adjustments and pelvic alignment. We alleviate lower back strain, sciatic nerve irritation, and postural imbalances using specialized techniques accommodating abdominal growth. Treatment enhances comfort during pregnancy and prepares the body for labor through targeted musculoskeletal support.

Report
I was referred to Dr. Kisker by my acupuncturist. I was looking for relief from horrible neck pain that I thought I would be living with for the rest of my life. Nothing I was doing was helping. Dr. Kisker had me go for an x-ray and then met with me to discuss a plan of care. He uses stim treatments, chiropractic massage and ultrasound. He explains what he is doing and why. I have been seeing him for about three months and my neck pain is gone. Not just better, but gone! Dr. Kisker is very passionate about his philosophy of treatment and it shows in the care that I have received from him. I cannot

I am so fortunate to have found Dr. Kisker. I was at my wits end wondering who to go to after I ended my visits with a former traditional chiropracter. I was thrilled to learn of Dr. Kisker who does a differnet type of therapy - believing in working with the muscles rather that cracking. This was exactly what I was looking for. I had been in a bad way, but over time, he slowly brought my neck and upper back muscles back to normality. I believed in his philosopys of undoing muscle memory especially being this way for a long time. It was such a comfort to know that my neck can feel pretty normal

I was skeptical at first but Dr. Kisker proved me wrong very quickly. I had much higher hopes for improving my condition after the first visit. Under Dr. Kisker's excellent guidance and care I am making progress every week. He employs multitude of techniques and most importantly cares, listens and adjusts the course of therapy as he finds what works better or as your symptoms change. I would highly recommend his practice and I will definitely be working with him until I recover fully.

Great customer service, starting with the phone call to make an appointment! I was referred by a friend and couldn't be happier with their recommendation. Relaxed atmosphere, never rushed and Erin and Dr. Kisker are both very thorough.
