Services
Corrective Care Chiropractic
Our Corrective Care Chiropractic services focus on aligning the spine and improving overall function using advanced techniques like the Activator Method and drop tables. These precise adjustments alleviate discomfort by addressing structural imbalances and nerve interference. Patients experience enhanced mobility, reduced pain, and improved nervous system function through personalized treatment plans tailored to their specific needs.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy employs non-invasive low-level laser light to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue repair, and relieve chronic pain. This FDA-cleared treatment stimulates cellular energy production, promoting healing for conditions like arthritis, sports injuries, and soft tissue damage. Patients benefit from pain-free sessions with no downtime, making it ideal for those seeking drug-free recovery solutions.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave Therapy uses acoustic wave technology to stimulate natural healing processes in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This treatment effectively reduces pain from conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and joint degeneration while enhancing blood circulation and tissue regeneration. Patients receive targeted therapy without invasive procedures, experiencing long-term relief through improved cellular metabolism and reduced inflammation.
TheraGun Therapy
TheraGun Therapy delivers percussive vibrations to deep muscle layers, breaking up tension and improving circulation for faster recovery. This technique enhances flexibility, reduces soreness after physical activity, and alleviates chronic muscle stiffness through targeted myofascial release. Patients enjoy immediate relaxation effects and improved range of motion during both pre- and post-workout sessions.
Mold Toxicity Assessment
Our Mold Toxicity Assessment identifies health impacts from environmental mold exposure through comprehensive symptom analysis and targeted interventions. We develop personalized detoxification protocols, nutritional support, and lifestyle modifications to address immune system challenges and chronic symptoms. Patients receive education on mold avoidance strategies and home environment optimization for sustained wellness.

Back to Health has been a life changing experience. I have dealing with back pain for a lot longer than I realized and when it finally decided I had to pay attention to it I was "grounded". The entire staff has been fantastic with helping me get "back on my feet"! From the front desk to Dr. Heard everyone is supportive, friendly and in "the know". Scheduling is easy and flexible. The schedule Dr. Heard put me on is working and she is always happy to answer any additional questions. I would highly recommend speaking with them!

Serena at Back to Health Chiropractic was amazing! I injured myself lifting my cooler at a volleyball tournament. My left shoulder spasmed and my ribs shifted. It was hurting to breath. Luckily Serena was there and she gave me a brief 3 min adjustment.and wow I could breath without pain again. My pain level went from a 9 to a almost none! So thankful for her skills and healing abilities!

Back to Health had a great atmosphere from the minute I walked in. It was very clean and tastefully decorated. The process from check in, to the warm-up area, and finally to the patient room, flowed very nicely. Serena was warm and bubbly but took the time to explain everything to me so that I understood what was happening with my body. That girl has some magic hands! I felt great at the end of my appointment and I will definitely be back!

I wanted to share what a wonderful experience I had with Serena! She was amazing. I have an ongoing issue with my neck and hips and she has been wonderful. Caring and professional. The rest of the care team is amazing as well! The front desk employees are thoughtful, fun, helpful and accommodate your every need! I would have no problem referring anybody to Back to Health Chiripractic, and I have! Thank you for making me feel human again!

Late getting started and I was 45 minutes early to get all the paperwork done before I saw the chiropractor. I'm on a very tight schedule and Serena was awesome! Thank God for chiropractor's! After my visit I was scheduled for a cortisone shot and I didn't need it! No more pain!

Met with Dr. Cotter this week to talk about Hashimotos Hypothyroidism which I was diagnosed with in July 2020. After reviewing my labs & health history with me I've got a lot of work to do but feel confident I'm on the right path to healing. Highly recommend not only for chiropractor services but if you're dealing with autoimmune disorders this is the place to go!
