Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our doctors perform precise spinal and extremity adjustments using manual techniques or activator tools. This corrects alignment issues, improves joint function, and alleviates pain from conditions like herniated discs and sciatica. Patients receive personalized care plans addressing their specific musculoskeletal needs.
Cold Laser Therapy
Non-invasive cold laser treatments use light wavelengths to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and accelerate tissue healing. This safe, heat-free therapy effectively addresses arthritis, nerve impingements, and sports injuries by stimulating cellular repair processes.
Physical Therapy
Certified chiropractors design therapeutic exercise programs to enhance strength, flexibility, and mobility. These customized regimens complement adjustments and promote long-term recovery from injuries or chronic conditions.
Graston Technique
Specialized stainless-steel instruments break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions. This technique improves range of motion, reduces pain, and restores normal muscle function for patients with chronic soft tissue injuries.
Prenatal Chiropractic Care
Gentle adjustments and Webster Technique applications support pelvic alignment and nervous system health during pregnancy. This promotes optimal fetal positioning and eases discomforts associated with hormonal and postural changes.

He's just a really cool guy who really knows his stuff. Several years ago, my wife and I made an unscheduled visit to his office one day while on vacation. He was more than accommodating and the treatment we received was superb! I highly recommend Dr. Ricci!

Loved my visit. He took the time to explain to me about the practice in general and about the spine and it's functions, etc. He also has an X-ray machine there where you can figure out if anything is out of alignment right there and then. Will be coming back!

If I could give him no stars I would, awful service and very rushed visits. Pain didn't seem to go away and just got increasingly worse, save your money.

Would not recommend this practice to anybody. Haven't seen anything positive come out of the diagnosis, since I've last been.
