3 Steps to Wholeness
Your first appointment will take less than 1 hour. During that time Dr. Ed or Dr. Shane will meet with you, ask you a few questions to get to know you better, take x-ray images if needed, and answer your questions as well.
You need a treatment plan that is as unique as you are. During your second appointment, your doctor will help you understand what is causing your pain or discomfort and will present a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
You and your family can live a life full of energy and wholeness, and Chiropractic is an incredible tool to help you get there quickly and safely. Many patients see noticeable improvements almost immediately.

- 1 in 4 prescription opioid users struggle with addiction
- You are 140,000 times more likely to develop complications from surgery.
