"I use my work as a means to connect with people, to offer some kind of helpful words and actions. Maybe we do some business, maybe we don’t. I hope their lives are richer for our meeting. I know that mine is. I am grateful for the wealth of connections I have made."

SYMPTOMS CHIROPRACTIC CARE MAY HELP WITH
Blackwood Health Center
Most people believe that chiropractors treat back pain. That is true, but there is so much more that chiropractic care can achieve. Because chiropractors help to remove pressure from the nervous system, they can also influence many other conditions. It is common to hear chiropractic patients say that they came in for back pain and their headaches got better.

- Nutritional analysis and supplement protocols. We use lab tests to look at nutritional imbalances and use interventional nutritional protocols to facilitate healing and optimal health.
- Acupuncture; We use a Meridian Imaging system that allows us to be methodical in our approach. Acupuncture is a fantastic adjunct to a well-tuned body and facilitates healing on so many levels.
- Dry Needling is a form of therapy in which thin needles are inserted into the myofascial trigger points (painful knots in muscles) in order to stimulate a healing response and reduce pain and spasms in the musculoskeletal system. (Dry Needling is NOT acupuncture).
