Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic adjustments realign the spine to alleviate pain and improve nervous system function. Our practitioners use precise techniques like the Activator Method to address misalignments caused by injury or chronic stress, promoting natural healing. Patients benefit from customized care plans targeting conditions like sciatica, headaches, and joint pain while avoiding reliance on medication or invasive procedures.

Therapeutic Massage

Our licensed massage therapists combine deep tissue and trigger point therapy with chiropractic care to relieve muscle tension. This integration accelerates recovery from injuries, enhances flexibility, and supports spinal adjustments by reducing inflammation. Techniques are tailored to individual needs, addressing chronic pain, sports injuries, and stress-related conditions through non-invasive methods.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy alleviates pressure on discs and nerves using controlled stretching techniques. This treatment effectively addresses herniated discs, sciatica, and degenerative disc disease by restoring spinal alignment. Patients experience reduced pain, improved mobility, and accelerated healing through both manual and mechanical decompression methods administered by certified specialists.

Applied Kinesiology

Applied Kinesiology uses muscle testing to identify imbalances in the body's physical, chemical, and emotional systems. By diagnosing weaknesses and applying targeted adjustments, this method resolves chronic pain and functional disorders. Treatments integrate joint manipulation, myofascial release, and nutritional guidance to correct underlying causes of discomfort and improve overall wellness.

Rehabilitation Therapy

On-site rehabilitation combines Pilates-based exercises with therapeutic equipment to restore strength and mobility. Personalized programs reinforce chiropractic adjustments by correcting postural imbalances and preventing recurring injuries. Patients receive guidance on home exercises and lifestyle modifications to maintain progress and achieve long-term musculoskeletal health.

I've been going to Walker Chiropractic for a handful of months and it has been fantastic, particularly, Dr. Jennifer Simons, who has helped my jaw and hips feel so much better, all while being attentive and always willing to answer questions. Definitely recommend going to her!

Just want to give a shout out to the Walker Road Chiropractic office! I'm from out of town, here working. Was in need of a chiropractor. Have always had lower back pain and was dealing with a pinched nerve. Dr. Simon is very knowledgeable and explains everything she is doing. I would recommend her to anyone.

I met doctor Simone when I was 20 weeks pregnant and with a lot of back pain already. She is THE BEST. She helped me all the way to 39 weeks and I can't wait to come back after birth till my back is healed. You won't regret choosing her.

Nothing but good things to say about Dr. Simons. I came to her with a lot pain throughout my back and I had issues in my hips, I never thought the outcome could be as good as it is. My back pain is gone, and my mobility is way better. I would recommend her to anyone in need of care!

I've been going to Walker Road Chiropractic about two years, I feel amazing. I'm very grateful that I met Dr. Simons during a business promotion event in 24 hour fitness. She offered me a free consultation and told me my back wasn't in alignment but it's not too late to get adjusted. She explained the importance of maintaining a good posture helps our daily activities. After my consultation, I decided I want to improve my back and overall health for a healthier life.

The adjustments did improve my back. I don't feel major pain in my feet when I'm standing or walking too much at work. Definitely feel the treatments are working. Walker Chiropractic offer relaxing or therapeutic massages, it's fantastic especially before getting adjusted. The staff are super nice and helpful to get appointments scheduled and medical forms filled out quick. Highly recommend Dr. Simons to get your back in alignment. Your back will thank you for it

Dr. Simons has an incredible touch, she listens and takes the time to be thorough. I've never experienced anything like it! The activator method has been around for years (no cracking and twisting!), but with Dr. Simons' knowledge, wisdom, and touch, she makes it seem magical! I've gotten more relief and more stability in knees, back, spine, neck, shoulders, feet, etc. than ever before and in a very short amount of time, and I've seen numerous chiropractors too many to count. You really need to give her a try, she talks fast, but she listens well! She is a breath of fresh air to chiropractic!
