Spinal Adjustment
Our spinal adjustments correct vertebral subluxations that interfere with nervous system function. Using gentle, specific forces, we restore proper spinal alignment to enhance bodily communication and self-healing capabilities. This technique addresses pain sources directly while improving overall wellness through nervous system optimization.
Dry Hydrotherapy Massage
This therapy combines heat, massage, and whirlpool effects to increase blood circulation, reduce muscle tension, and improve oxygen absorption. The 15-minute supervised sessions help decrease inflammation, lower blood pressure, and release endorphins for enhanced well-being and treatment effectiveness.
Intersegmental Traction
This mechanical traction system stretches spinal muscles and ligaments while separating vertebrae to increase intervertebral foramen space. The treatment helps relieve nerve compression, reduce muscle guarding, and improve spinal mobility through controlled distraction of affected segments.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Interferential Stimulation (IFS) uses medium-frequency currents to manage pain and accelerate tissue healing. This therapy controls pain signals, reduces inflammation, and promotes muscle recovery through targeted electrical stimulation combined with heat or cryotherapy applications during treatment phases.
ChiroThin Weight Loss
This physician-assisted program combines detoxification protocols with nutrient-dense superfoods to support metabolic transformation. The program addresses cellular health while promoting sustainable weight loss through nutritional optimization and chiropractic wellness principles.

I started going here when I herniated a couple discs in lower back and it helped right away. I should have kept going and eventually had pinched nerve in my neck, which also went away after going back, now I go regularly and feel great. I highly recommend this place!

I have been going to highland chiropractic for a few years now. I originally started going for my migranes and neck. They are the only chiropractor that actually listened to me and did something about it to make it better. Thanks to Dr. Ian, he introduced me to Formula 303. Since I have taken it, I have not had to rely on any kind of prescription drugs for my migranes and pains. I can also say that I haven't had any real episodes. I am beyond thankful for both Dr Ian and Dr Arlene.

I have been going here for three years on and off. Doctors Ian and Arlene are wonderful people and a pleasure to chat with. They really know their stuff. I had a pinched nerve in my upper back/neck that would shoot pain down the right side of my neck and back and numbness and tingling down my right arm. Doctor Ian has fixed me right up and pain and numbness are gone. I still go every three or four weeks to keep it "in tune." Do yourself a favor, get off the pain meds and call to make an appointment. I am so glad I did!

I was in pain, thinking it would go away for a month and half. Walking around holding my arm up to relieve the pain. Then I was referred to Highland Chiropractor. After two weeks of treatment the pain in my neck and shoulder is at a 2 when I went in at a 9. Thank you to the TEAM at Highland. I can't not say enough. This was my first experience with chiropractic service. I have tried physical therapy in the past but need to try a different approach.

I've been going here for a few weeks now and I feel so relieved! Definitely wish I went sooner but better late than never. I really love the fact that the Doctors are Christians, it really makes a difference! Everyone is friendly and caring! I've been to a chiropractor in the past but stoped mainly because of their work environment. I was recommended to highland chiropractic from a young woman I attended Church with and I definitely recommend them to you too!
