Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments focus on spinal realignment combined with pre-treatment muscle preparation. This approach addresses misalignments causing sciatica, neck pain, and sports injuries. Each 30-minute session includes heat therapy and trigger point massage to enhance adjustment effectiveness, helping patients achieve lasting pain relief and improved mobility through manual techniques and low-force activator tools.
Deep Tissue Massage
Specialized deep tissue massage targets chronic muscle tension and connective tissue restrictions. Our therapists use varying pressure levels to address specific concerns like sports injuries, postural imbalances, and repetitive strain conditions. This technique improves circulation, breaks up scar tissue, and restores mobility through focused work on deeper muscle layers, often combined with cupping or myofascial release for enhanced results.
Prenatal Massage
Customized prenatal massage addresses pregnancy-related discomforts including sciatica, back pain, and swelling. Our therapists use specialized positioning and gentle techniques to safely relieve tension while supporting circulation and lymphatic drainage. Sessions incorporate position-specific adjustments and postural guidance to help expecting mothers maintain comfort throughout their pregnancy journey.
Sports Chiropractic
Sports chiropractic services focus on performance optimization and injury recovery. Combining joint mobilization with soft tissue work, we treat sports-related conditions like tendonitis, sprains, and repetitive motion injuries. Our approach enhances range of motion, reduces recovery time, and prevents future injuries through movement pattern analysis and targeted muscle preparation before adjustments.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy uses controlled suction to release deep muscle tension and improve circulation. This technique effectively addresses chronic pain, muscle stiffness, and scar tissue adhesions by creating negative pressure that lifts connective tissue layers. Sessions integrate cupping with traditional massage to enhance toxin removal, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing for both acute and chronic conditions.

Love Tinozzi! Olga is a healer, she listens to your needs and incorporates hot stones and cupping upon request. I go every week! Staff are super friendly, a reflection of the owner Rina. Highly recommend this place!

Report
I was walking down a sidewalk at a good pace and didn't see a wheelchair entrance. When I stepped forward I thought there would be side walk that wasn't there. Ten steps later I was doubled over in pain & couldn't take a full breath. It is hard to imagine that I could throw my back out just by walking down the street but it happened. Luckily I was able to be seen by Dr. Tinozzi and her super experienced massage therapist Olga almost immediately.
I was not a previous patient of Dr. Tinozzi but she made sure I got in to see her. It was a tremendous relief. They had me take my shirt off & identified the place where I was having the issue immediately. That was impressive. They started with a heat pack and some massage & stretching. Dr. Tinozzi said that it might not be possible to adjust my back when I was in tensing up. However, she did adjust me after some time and it was amazing how much better I felt. I am so impressed with their team based approach & care. I highly recommend this practice. Thank you!

Awesome experience. Dr. Tinozzi took the time to really listen to my concerns and made a lot of efforts to treat the area I am experiencing sciatic pain. The applied heat and massage before the treatment is very helpful. I was impressed by the level of customer service. Staff is super friendly and the whole space very inviting and beautifully decorated.

I had injured my neck and shoulder and was desperate for help. Having not been to a chiropractor in years, Dr. Tinozzi and her team made me feel comfortable (and ultimately better!). Dr. Tinozzi is very transparent throughout the process, making the experience very comfortable. The entire team is so hospitable and makes you feel like VIP. Highly recommend!
