Chiropractic Care
Our comprehensive chiropractic care addresses musculoskeletal issues through manual adjustments and specialized techniques. We treat conditions ranging from back pain to sports injuries using methods like Diversified, Thompson Drop, and Activator tool adjustments. Our approach focuses on restoring nervous system function and promoting natural healing. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced overall wellness through personalized treatment plans that may include complementary therapies.
Neuropathy Treatment
Our non-invasive neuropathy treatment targets chronic nerve pain using advanced technologies and protocols. We combine electromagnetic infrared therapy, electrostimulation, and nutritional support to address peripheral neuropathy symptoms. This multi-faceted approach increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and promotes nerve regeneration. Patients experience decreased pain, improved sensation, and enhanced quality of life through our customized treatment programs that address underlying causes of nerve damage.
Shockwave Therapy
This innovative treatment uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in musculoskeletal tissues. We employ shockwave therapy for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and chronic pain, promoting tissue regeneration and improved blood circulation. The treatment effectively reduces inflammation, breaks down scar tissue, and accelerates recovery. Patients benefit from faster healing times and long-term pain relief without invasive procedures or medication dependence.
Metabolic Health
Our metabolic health program addresses hormonal imbalances and chronic conditions through a holistic approach. We combine advanced diagnostics with personalized nutrition plans to target root causes of fatigue, weight gain, and metabolic disorders. The program includes specialized testing, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle modifications. Patients achieve improved energy levels, better weight management, and enhanced overall health through our comprehensive, science-based treatment protocols.
Spinal Decompression
This non-surgical treatment alleviates back pain caused by disc issues through gentle spinal traction. We use advanced decompression technology to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves, promoting natural healing. The therapy effectively treats herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain. Patients experience reduced pain, improved mobility, and enhanced spinal function without the need for invasive procedures or prolonged recovery periods.

Dr. Nelson makes me feel like she truly cares about my overall health. I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and at each visit she always asks how I am doing with it.

Make your appointment today! I've been to many chiropractor offices and have never experienced a friendlier staff and more approachable chiropractor. Ms. Lyne is such a treasure! You'll be in the best hands. The staff is so efficient and just simply top-notch. Again, make the appointment! You'll feel better, physically, and about your choice of chiropractic care. (I'm a Nelson, but no relation)

I have been a regular patient at Nelson Chiropractic since 2011. Having been a Preschool and PreKindergarten Teacher for twenty years, all the enjoyment of teaching "at floor level" had already taken a toll on my knees and back. My family doctor warned against knee replacements at too early an age. I can't remember not hurting, but the smiles and giggles always won at the end of the day. I retired before the Holidays 2010. and BANG!

I had never had any surgeries until 2011 and was suddenly faced with a left nephrectomy and a non-functional gall bladder. My daughter urged me to reach out to the team at Nelson Chiropractic. and, I have been a very satisfied patient of Dr. Traci Nelson since then. There is a definite welcoming air at the Office of Nelson Chiropractic and the Professional Staff of Doctors is the BEST. Keeping a monthly maintenence schedule with occasional extra needed visits is the best key for chiropractic care.
