Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments restore proper spinal alignment using manual techniques and specialized tools. This treatment alleviates pain from musculoskeletal conditions while improving nervous system function. Patients experience enhanced mobility and reduced discomfort through personalized adjustment plans tailored to their specific needs and health goals.
Cold Laser Therapy
Low-level laser therapy stimulates cellular repair through targeted light application. This non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and accelerates healing for chronic pain, sprains, and joint stiffness. Our certified practitioners customize treatment protocols to address individual conditions while ensuring optimal therapeutic outcomes through precise energy delivery.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical spinal decompression gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on discs and nerves. This computer-controlled treatment addresses herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain by creating negative pressure that promotes nutrient flow and disc healing for lasting pain relief.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave technology delivers acoustic waves to injured tissues, activating the body's natural healing processes. This FDA-cleared treatment accelerates recovery from chronic pain and soft tissue injuries by stimulating cell regeneration and improving blood circulation without invasive procedures or medication.
Nasocranial Release
This specialized technique addresses cranial misalignments through gentle nasal balloon dilation. Effective for sinus pressure, headaches, and traumatic brain injury symptoms, the procedure restores proper cranial bone movement and cerebrospinal fluid flow to improve neurological function and reduce pain.

I've been in some left shoulder pain here lately, most especially today. If I could have pulled out that strip of pain from within my shoulder I would have. A rib outta place HURTS. I called the office and I was able to get in right away. I told Dr Neil my symptoms and he immediately said I had a rib outta place. My left shoulder adjustment felt amazing! It's still sore and I'm icing it with my FREE ice pack as I type this. You have such a CARING staff. Thank you. See you all Friday!

Hello, I'm needing to brag and boast on Body in Balance Chiropractic for a second time. They have taken such great care of me considering my injuries and pain. I was involved in a very bad motorcycle wreck and broke many bones e.g. spinal fusion, open book pelvic fracture, broken wrists, right forearm and elbow and a whole laundry list of more injuries. I was always so skeptical to come to a chiropractor because I didn't think anywhere would be able to treat me because of all the metal hardware in my body. Dr Neil and his amazing staff examined me and had X-rays done.

Once my consultation was finished, a specialized treatment plan was built and put in place. Body in Balance have been so professional and actually take care of and treat my areas of pain. They are very passionate about what they do and are always so caring anytime I visit. I only have nice things to say about them. To Dr. Neil and his wonderful staff, Thank you so much for helping me and I absolutely cannot thank y'all enough. It has meant the world to me more than you could ever know. V/R Mason Carver
