Our Story
Michiana's Trusted Chiropractic Care

The practitioners of tomorrow will focus less on medications and more on teaching patients how to care
for their bodies, choosing proper nutrition, and prevent disease
at its source.
- Thomas Edison

In our practice, we don't chase symptoms - we care for people who are experiencing them.

Through precise chiropractic adjustments, frequency therapy (Qi5, PTL II, BrainTap and PEMF), shockwave therapy as well as functional medicine strategies, we work to clear interference, support the body's innate intelligence, and activate healing from the inside out - physically, mentally, emotionally, and nutritionally.

As practitioners, we strive to provide care that is thoughtful, intentional, and rooted in understanding the whole person.

Our mission is three-fold:

1. Adjust what can be corrected – whether structural, biochemical, or emotional...(Read More)
Whether that’s through specific chiropractic adjustments to restore nervous system function, or through targeted functional medicine interventions to balance biochemistry and support optimal physiology. We also address emotional needs with BrainTap (Neural Entrainment), or with our Qi5 / PTLII / PEMF devices
2. Explore and understand the “root-causes” behind recurring patterns and imbalances...(Read More)
To understand the deeper “why” — the patterns, stressors, and root causes that keep dysfunction or symptoms returning. We don’t just want to help you feel better temporarily; we want to help you heal fully and sustainably.
3. Collaborate with others when appropriate to ensure you receive the most complete and effective care possible...(Read More)
Because optimal care sometimes means collaboration. If your needs extend beyond our scope, we will happily guide or refer you to trusted professionals who can support your journey.

Our approach goes beyond simply alleviating pain. It's about fostering a deeper understanding of your body and mind to enhance your overall quality of life. We recognize your discomfort, and our method is straightforward: We honor the whole You — not just your pain, but your potential.This is the heart of our practice: to listen with care, respond with insight, and help you reclaim your health.
