Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our spinal adjustments correct misalignments to improve nervous system function and alleviate pain. This service combines manual techniques with instrument-assisted adjustments to address posture issues and musculoskeletal conditions. Patients experience reduced inflammation, improved mobility, and enhanced overall wellness through our precise, evidence-based approach tailored to individual needs.
Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment
Specialized treatment for nerve damage symptoms including numbness, tingling, and chronic pain. We utilize low-level laser therapy combined with neurological rehabilitation exercises to stimulate nerve repair and restore proper function. Our approach targets the root cause rather than masking symptoms for lasting relief.
Corrective Exercises
Customized exercise programs designed to strengthen weakened muscles and improve movement patterns. These therapeutic exercises address postural imbalances and support spinal adjustments by building proper muscle memory. Patients learn home exercise routines to accelerate recovery and prevent future injuries through active participation in their care.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical treatment for herniated discs and spinal compression injuries. This advanced therapy gently stretches the spine to create negative pressure within discs, promoting nutrient flow and healing. Patients with chronic back pain find relief through this FDA-cleared technology combined with complementary chiropractic care.
Physiotherapy
Comprehensive rehabilitation combining manual therapy with therapeutic modalities like ultrasound and electrical stimulation. Our physiotherapy addresses acute injuries and chronic conditions through targeted treatment plans that improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and restore functional movement patterns for complete musculoskeletal recovery.

I'm so happy I found Knecht Chiropractic when looking for a new chiropractor. Dr. Knecht made sure to thoroughly explain the results of my X-rays after my consultation, and within just a few days of treatments, I felt relief of my neck and back pain. I look forward to my visits each month. I would definitely recommend this office for your chiropractic needs.

Love this place! Not only are the doctors just amazing awesome people, but they are also magic! When I came in, my neck was so messed up that I couldn't look both ways to cross the street. My back and neck are so much better, and I look forward to every adjustment. Doctor B and Doctor K actually know their patients and want the best for them in all aspects. I put it off for too long, but Knecht Chiropractic has been the best investment in myself I've ever made.
