Personal Philosophy
My goal is to assist patients in their efforts
to return their bodies to normal function. As a chiropractor, it
is my role to reestablish proper nervous system function by altering
the body's biomechanics. Abnormal biomechanical conditions, also
known as "subluxation", are treated with chiropractic
manipulative therapy ("adjustments"), supplemented by
adjunctive modalities, therapeutic stretches and exercises, as well
as counseling in how to modify daily activities. My objective is
to help patients understand their original problem and in doing
so minimize future injuries.

Treatment Philosophy
• Restore proper body biomechanics in the
muscle, joint, and nervous systems (eliminate "subluxations")
by performing chiropractic manipulative therapy (CMT)
• Encourage healthy lifestyles
• Restore optimum health
