Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments restore joint mobility through specialized manual techniques. By correcting spinal misalignments, we alleviate nerve interference and musculoskeletal pain. Patients benefit from improved range of motion, reduced inflammation, and enhanced nervous system function through regular adjustments.
Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy reduces pain and inflammation using concentrated light energy. The treatment stimulates cellular repair while decreasing swelling and discomfort. This non-invasive option works effectively for acute injuries, chronic pain conditions, and post-surgical recovery without pharmaceutical side effects.
Yoga Classes
Guided yoga sessions improve flexibility, core strength, and mental focus through vinyasa flows and restorative poses. Our classes incorporate breathwork and meditation to reduce stress while increasing body awareness and physical resilience for all experience levels.
Nutrition Counseling
Personalized nutrition plans address dietary deficiencies using whole food supplements and therapeutic diets. We help patients implement purification programs and healthy eating habits to support systemic detoxification and optimal cellular function.
Purification Programs
Structured detoxification protocols cleanse the liver, kidneys, and digestive system through targeted supplementation and organic diet plans. Programs reduce toxic burden while improving energy levels, sleep quality, and metabolic efficiency through evidence-based purification methods.

Heather is by far the best chiropractor I have ever seen (and I've seen a few!). She is extremely knowledgeable with nutrition, health, supplements and all my weird and wonderful sports injuries and muscle imbalances. Bonus: she has 2 gorgeous friendly Rottweilers who I want to take home with me! I highly recommend visiting Heather!

Dr. Heather is an excellent, knowledgeable, and experienced practitioner. She is attentive and listens to your issues and other needs during each visit then takes the time to make an expert assessment in order to come up with an effective action plan. I first visited Dr. Heather after experiencing pain for quite a while as I was hesitant to take this step. But am so glad I did and as a result, and within just one visit, I experienced immediate results of relief! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
