Chiropractors - the natural choice

Active Health and Wellness Center exists for one purpose: To restore normal joint biomechanics which allows our patients to live an active & pain free lifestyle.

Gentle, effective adjustments

Chiropractors focus primarily on restoring joint biomechanics to it's most efficient form. This reduces most musculoskeletal problems. To accomplish this we utilize physical therapy, deep tissue massage, ultrasound, electrical muscle stimulation to break up scar tissue adhesions and muscle spasms then therapeutic stretching and exercise rehabilitation to provide joint stabilization and proper biomechanics. With trauma or repetitive activites (microtraumas), adhesions develop in muscles, ligaments, tendons and joint complexes that cause joint dysfunction and/or nerve irritation. Chiropractors evaluate the area to determine the type, duration and intensity of therapy to break up these adhesions, reduce pain, restore normal joint function or biomechanics and then finally stretch and/or strengthen the muscles surrounding the affected joint structure.

Chiropractors at Active Health and Wellness have undergone years of training to be the experts at correcting musculoskeletal problems. Dr. Case and Dr. McConnell underwent extensive post-graduate education and testing by some of the most knowledgeable leaders in the chiropractic field to earn their titles as Board Certified Chiropractic Orthopedists. Fewer than 1 percent of all chiropractors in the USA have achieved the status of being Board Certified Chiropractic Orthopedists. They have specialized training in the examination, diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage and their related nerve structures.
