Services
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Specialized adjustments for infants and children address developmental challenges, torticollis, and posture issues. Our gentle techniques promote nervous system function and overall wellness. Parents report improvements in sleep, digestion, and behavior.
Prenatal Chiropractic Care
Webster Protocol-certified adjustments alleviate sciatic pain, pelvic misalignment, and posture strain during pregnancy. This care helps optimize fetal positioning and may reduce labor duration while enhancing maternal comfort.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation
Targeted treatments for athletes address soft tissue adhesions, joint misalignments, and performance limitations. Combining adjustments with exercise prescriptions accelerates recovery from sports-related injuries and enhances peak performance.
Posture Correction
Comprehensive posture analysis identifies spinal misalignments caused by device overuse. Customized plans integrate adjustments, stretching, and ergonomic guidance to reverse 'text neck' and restore proper spinal alignment.
Wellness Chiropractic Care

This place is the best. What I like most about this place is the fact that she works on your problem I got to other chiropractors and theyre sitting there putting me in 35 different positions cracking things that I dont need to be cracked. She focuses on your problem and shes helped me tremendously.

Dr. Hourihan is amazing! We started bringing our daughter to see Dr. Hourihan when she was only about 4 months old. Our daughter had terrible reflux and nothing else was working and we were against medication. We went every week about 3x a week and after several months we saw a HUGE improvement in her reflux and she was so much happier. Along the way Dr. Hourihan also took care of her torticollis, which we never even knew she had until we started going to the chiropractor. Our baby is now 10 months and is doing amazing! Besides being excellent at what she does, Dr. Hourihan is also kind, professional

Dr. Christine Hourihan is amazing! Great doctor and great personality. She is my life savior. I have some real back issues and sometimes pain maybe unbearable. She helped me many times (helps to stay away from medication) and I will highly recommend her.
