Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders through manual adjustments. We address back pain, neck pain, and joint issues using techniques like Diversified Technique and Thompson Drop-Table. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced nervous system function through our personalized treatment plans.
Spinal Decompression
This non-surgical treatment relieves pressure on spinal discs using FDA-cleared technology. We target herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain through controlled traction that creates negative pressure in discs. Patients experience reduced nerve compression and accelerated healing without medication or invasive procedures.
Massage Therapy
Our licensed therapists provide therapeutic massage for pain relief and recovery. Techniques include Swedish, deep tissue, and sports massage to address muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance flexibility. This service complements chiropractic care for conditions like sports injuries and postural imbalances.
Acupuncture
This holistic treatment addresses pain management and wellness through strategic needle placement. We use acupuncture for conditions like migraines, arthritis, and stress-related disorders. Patients receive drug-free pain relief and improved energy flow through this time-tested Chinese medicine practice.
Active Release Technique
ART targets muscle adhesions and scar tissue through precise manual manipulation. We treat repetitive strain injuries, tendonitis, and sports-related soft tissue damage. Patients achieve faster recovery and restored mobility through this specialized hands-on approach combined with chiropractic adjustments.

Report
David Lieberman was an absolute pleasure to work with. He legitimately asked me enough questions and was sincerely concerned about getting me healthy. The staff was friendly courteous and treated me like an actual human being and not like an insurance claim. I'd highly recommend Complete chiropractic as well as David Lieberman absolute professionals.

Great office! Staff is always super friendly and welcoming (a rare thing these days). I have been going to chiropractors since age 8 so I've seen my fair share of good and bad ones. At my first appointment Dr. Liberman acknowledged that and told me to just come in as I felt I needed, he didn't try to pressure me to come in twice a week like a lot of other places do. The last office I went to tried to sell me on a $5000 plan. No thanks! They just got a new Doctor here as well and both he and Dr. Liberman do a fantastic adjustment. Bonus points for the massage chairs as well! Helps relax you before your appointment!

I've been to numerous practices in town. Dr Monroe has done a few dry needling sessions on my neck and upper left back area. It has helped me immensely. What I love about this practice, is the straight forward treatment without the non-ancillary fluff.
