At Dr Caren’s Complete Chiropractic we take a hands-on, modern approach for the treatment of pain by restoring proper biomechanics to the joints and soft tissue structures of the body.

We use a combination of spinal manipulation, extraspinal manipulation, and manual therapy and at the end of the visit the patient will receive some type of ‘homework’ or rehab to make sure their care continues outside of the office. Dr. Caren believes that patient care is a team effort between both the practitioner and patient and she spends the time to help each patient understand the reasons behind their condition and understand how to prevent reoccurrence.

We are committed to providing professional, individualized care by addressing each patient’s unique structural, movement and lifestyle factors that have led them to where they are today. Manipulative therapy is commonly used for the treatment of joints that are experiencing decreased motion. It has been proven safe and reliable in many scientific studies.

Dr. Caren has extensive training and certifications that allows her to be able to develop and explain a chiropractic wellness plan that will give you maximum relief in the minimum amount of time.

 FLEXION/DISTRACTION

A special table that moves in a smooth, rhythmic way allows the doctor to gently stretch and bend the area of treatment without any vigorous or jerking motions.

ACTIVATOR

An activator is a small device that produces a physical impulse by which the doctor can get the desired movement back into the joint.

ELECTRIC STIMULATION

This process uses safe, painless electric pulses through the area of treatment, which simulates the body’s nervous system causing muscle relaxation. EMS can treat constant headaches, numbness of limps and back pain.

NEUROKINETIC THERAPY (NKT)

A technique that utilizes manual muscle testing to help balance muscles and dysfunctional movement patterns.

SELECTIVE FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT ASSESSMENT (SFMA)
