Services
Back Pain Treatment
Our chiropractors use specialized techniques to address upper, mid, and lower back pain through spinal adjustments and therapeutic exercises. Patients receive personalized treatment plans combining manual therapy with rehabilitative stretches. This comprehensive approach helps improve mobility and reduce chronic discomfort without surgical intervention.
Sciatica Therapy
Targeted treatment for sciatic nerve pain includes spinal adjustments to relieve nerve compression and reduce inflammation. We combine decompression techniques with posture correction training to address the root causes of radiating leg pain. Treatment plans focus on restoring normal nerve function and preventing recurring episodes.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy help maintain proper pelvic alignment and reduce discomfort from postural changes. Our techniques address common pregnancy-related issues like lower back pain and sciatica while preparing the body for labor. Specialized care supports both maternal comfort and fetal positioning throughout all trimesters.
Ultrasound Therapy
Therapeutic ultrasound uses sound waves to penetrate deep muscle tissue and promote healing. This non-invasive modality increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and accelerates recovery from soft tissue injuries. Treatment sessions target specific areas of musculoskeletal pain or recent trauma to speed up natural healing processes.
Sports Injury Care
Specialized treatment for sports-related injuries combines joint adjustments with soft tissue therapy to restore function. We focus on determining injury causes through comprehensive evaluations to prevent recurrence. Recovery plans include strength-building exercises and ergonomic recommendations for athletes at all activity levels.

Report
As someone who struggles with chronic back pain/herniated discs, Wheat chiropractic is a life saver! Dr. Wheat always fits me in and works on my back when I need help. He is very knowledgeable and always goes above and beyond to make sure he's done what he can to help my back. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for chiropractic services!
