Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal misalignments to alleviate pain and improve nervous system function. Using advanced X-ray diagnostics and manual adjustments, we address conditions like sciatica, disc problems, and posture-related pain. Patients benefit from non-invasive treatments that enhance mobility, reduce inflammation, and promote natural healing without medication.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Gentle pediatric chiropractic care addresses spinal stress from birth trauma or childhood falls. We use light-touch techniques to treat colic, ear infections, and developmental issues. Early intervention helps children establish proper spinal alignment, supporting healthy growth and preventing future musculoskeletal problems through a nurturing, family-centered approach.
Pregnancy Chiropractic
Specialized prenatal adjustments alleviate lower back strain and improve pelvic alignment for expecting mothers. Our Gonstead Technique and pregnancy-specific tables ensure safe, comfortable care. Regular visits help reduce labor duration, decrease discomfort, and support optimal fetal positioning while maintaining maternal spinal health throughout pregnancy.
Headache Relief
Targeted cervical spine adjustments address nerve interference causing tension headaches and migraines. X-ray-guided corrections realign vertebrae to eliminate pressure points. Patients receive posture guidance and hydration advice to prevent recurrence, achieving long-term relief without reliance on pain medications.
Disc Issues
Conservative treatment for bulging/herniated discs combines spinal realignment and intersegmental traction. Adjustments restore proper vertebral positioning to reduce disc pressure and nerve irritation. We focus on preventing osteoarthritis progression by improving joint mobility and disc hydration through non-surgical, drug-free interventions.

Report
I am now 6 months into being a patient at Longie Chiropractic. I can't thank this man and his staff enough for the peace and comfort that they've helped me to regain. When first arriving here I was phase 1, and being woken up out of my sleep at night with throbbing nerve pain. For the first 2 months or so I was on 3 visits weekly. After another 2 months or so I had graduated to only 2 visits weekly, and now am only 1 visit weekly or every other week.
At every step of the way, every single visit, I've felt the progress that his program was achieving. I say all of that to say this, TRUST THE PROCESS. The damage to your body has existed for some time Im sure, so keep in mind that it will take much time to reverse and correct that damage. Go see him and his friendly staff ASAP to get back to a better you!

Dr Rick Longie brought me in 1st day for xrays and consultation, which for now are $49. Next day after reading xrays, we started a plan of action for adjustment of my neck, spine and pelvis area. Slept best I had in months after my 1st adjustment.

My husband went there in severe back pain today. He was told by Dr Longie that if he wasn't willing to do several planned sessions that he would not work on him and did not adjust him at all. He did not get billed for today and if he does receive any type of billing we will not pay it. Yes there are times when you require multiple adjustments but some people can not afford to be see at 50 to 100 a pop once to twice a week. I advise you to go elsewhere.

Such a clean and inviting space. The care team deserves a huge shout out for always being so nice and hospitable. Like, the friendliest team ever. My favorite part of my treatment at Dr. Longies is knowing that it's a process. In the past I've gotten adjustments as a bandaid to treat pain. Now Dr Longie and I are working towards correcting the underlying causes of my pain and have a care plan! I'm so excited to be working towards a pain-free spine.
