Chiropractic care is safe during all stages of pregnancy! I can help with low back and pelvic pain, sciatica, or just stiffness and tightness from the changes your body experiences during all three trimesters and beyond. I can also work with you to help prep your body for birth, and ease recovery after birth.

Kids (and babies!) need chiropractic too! Birth can be traumatic for your little one. I can check neck and head position, hip stability, as well as movement patterns as they grow and learn. You can also bring your kids in for care after a fall or injury or for wellness care during their sport season. I will make sure their bodies are moving well so they can continue being kids- running, jumping, playing sports- whatever they love!

Whether we just need to keep you playing, rehab an injury (like a sprain or strain), or continue off-season maintenance, chiropractic care can help throughout your athletic career. I will work with you, your coaches, and your trainers to come up with a comprehensive plan to return to play as quickly and safely as possible. Chiropractic care is there for all stages and ages of athletes!

Lumbar and cervical disc injuries can sometimes cause inflammation and pinching around the nerves near the disc. These nerves run down our legs and arms and, when inflamed, can cause symptoms of pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness. These injuries, while sometimes debilitating, can be managed with chiropractic treatments. I start by calming down the irritated nerves, then loosing and strengthening the muscles involved.

Headaches can be affected by many factors, and some of those can be affected by chiropractic. Tension in the neck, jaw, or head can cause or contribute to headaches. I can use a combination of treatment techniques to help relax muscles and joints that may be affecting blood and nerve flow to the head, causing some forms of headaches.

Osteoarthritis shouldn’t hold you back from doing what you love! Arthritis isn’t a death sentence, and it also isn’t something you just have live with. I can help restore movement to stiff joints, then work with you to stretch and strengthen supporting muscles in order to relieve achy joints.

Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) can include anything from clicking and popping in your jaw, to lock jaw and trouble chewing, to pain and headaches from grinding your teeth. Jaw pain is never fun, but can be helped with chiropractic care. I can relax your jaw muscles either externally or intra-orally, whatever you are comfortable with.

Injured in a car accident? Chiropractic care can help with whiplash, sprains, strains, headaches, jaw pain, and anything else that can occur from a traumatic accident. I can direct bill to ICBC to make the proces of getting care and feeling better smoother for you.
