Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions through manual adjustments. We address back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint dysfunction using evidence-based techniques. Patients benefit from improved mobility, pain relief, and enhanced nervous system function.
MR4 Laser Therapy
MR4 Laser Therapy uses FDA-approved light wavelengths to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling while accelerating tissue repair. This non-invasive treatment targets conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, and sciatica. Patients experience faster healing and improved circulation without side effects.
Activator Method
The Activator Method delivers precise, low-force adjustments using a handheld instrument. It is ideal for patients seeking gentle care, including expectant mothers and children. This technique restores spinal balance and alleviates nerve irritation safely and effectively.
Manual Adjustments
Manual adjustments involve hands-on spinal manipulation to correct misalignments and improve joint function. Combined with muscle therapies, this approach relieves pain from sports injuries, disc problems, and chronic conditions through targeted, controlled force.
Cox Flexion-Distraction
Cox Flexion-Distraction gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on discs and nerves. This technique treats sciatica, stenosis, and lower back pain by improving spinal mobility and reducing inflammation. It is a safe, non-surgical option for disc-related issues.

I went to see Dr Stone after being in pain for three days. I was so appreciative that they were able to see me the same day. I was very pleasantly greeted by his receptionist (sorry, I don't recall your name), and after filling out some simple paperwork, was seen without much of a wait at all. Dr. Stone was very informative and personable as he explained what my problem was. After 20 minutes my back was significantly better, and continues to improve as the day goes on. I cannot recommend Dr. Stone highly enough. Thank you Dr. Stone!

I have been a patient of Dr Stone for many years and have seen him to treat my back and neck pain issues. In every case he has been able to get me better. I am grateful for the professionalism and knowledge that Dr Stone has shown and would not consider going elsewhere.

I started treatments with Dr. Nathanson ~8 weeks ago and feel better than I have in years. I suffered from nerve pain in my legs and arms and severe neck pain. Dr. Nathanson took the time to listen and look at my body. She recognized my horrific posture as a contributor to the problems so I've made mindful changes associated with that as well. She and the staff are friendly and professional. I feel safe visiting the office in this COVID time. Highly recommend Dr. Nathanson.
