Chiropractic Care

Using manual adjustments and advanced techniques, the practice addresses back pain, neck pain, and structural imbalances. Patients benefit from improved joint motion, reduced inflammation, and enhanced overall wellness through non-invasive treatments tailored to individual health goals.
Myofascial Release
This therapy targets myofascial trigger points to relieve pain and restore mobility. By applying sustained pressure to connective tissues, Olympic Chiropractic helps patients reduce chronic tension, improve circulation, and enhance flexibility. The technique effectively addresses headaches, muscle stiffness, and postural imbalances through hands-on, gentle treatment sessions.

Dr. Fischel takes the time to educate you and help you figure out a long term plan for your back health. They are so nice and I always leave with a smile on my face. After almost a year of being treated here there is a noticeable difference in my neck and posture and I'm in a much better place with my alignment. Five stars all around.

I've been to a lot of Chiros. Dr Fischel is powerful, efficient and effective, while maintaining a gentle grace in his practice. Shelly runs a tight ship and will help you stay consistent and proactive in your own care. Rates are competitive and auxiliary services such as massage and X-ray are available on site, and employed on an as needed basis. You won't spend more time or money than you need to, and you will get taken care of. This is a no BS, high outcome practice for everyone from PI and car accident patients to general maintenance and peak performance athletes. Street parking is generally easy too.

Dr. Fischel and staff are the best. Whenever I have needed treatment, Dr. Fischel's hands have solved my issues (chiropractic issues, that is). Due to his excellent work, I no longer feel the need to have treatments more than once or twice per year, instead of the one - or more - treatments each month that I needed when I first began seeing him. While Dr. Fischel's treatments are usually pretty fast, he does take whatever time is necessary should the situation warrant a longer treatment given the circumstances.

Glenn has been my chiropractor for more than four years and he is incredible. Every time I show up at his office there is Glenn with a bright smile. The adjustments are are great and I always feel significantly better afterwards. I am constantly referring people to him because he really is the BEST! I highly recommend going to see him!
