Services
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle pain and tension using thin needles to stimulate healing. Ideal for sports injuries, chronic pain, and postural imbalances. Our practitioners combine this technique with electrical stimulation for enhanced recovery.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression alleviates disc herniations and sciatica through non-surgical traction. This therapy reduces pressure on spinal discs, promoting natural healing. Patients experience improved mobility and reduced nerve-related discomfort after sessions.
Food Allergy Testing
Identify dietary triggers with comprehensive food allergy testing. We analyze sensitivities to common allergens, guiding personalized nutrition plans. Results help manage gastrointestinal issues, skin conditions, and chronic inflammation effectively.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore proper joint function and spinal alignment. This manual therapy addresses neck pain, headaches, and posture-related discomfort. Regular adjustments improve nervous system function and overall physical performance.
Rehabilitation
Our rehabilitation programs combine therapeutic exercises and soft tissue release for post-surgery or injury recovery. Customized plans focus on restoring strength, flexibility, and functional mobility. Patients receive hands-on guidance to accelerate healing safely.

I was desperate with some help with an ear ache, sinus pressure and headaches. Dr Jon was able to squeeze me in and I felt immediate relief! The next day, I woke up headache free and my ear didn't feel clogged anymore! He knows what he's doing and takes the time to explain everything.

Dr. Alvarez is amazing! He has helped me with so many muscle and joint injuries from my active lifestyle, and I tell everyone he allows me to keep doing it. I love his style, in that he takes the time to explain why I'm experiencing the pain, which is often times unrelated to where the pain is. I have referred so many people to him, and often hear the feedback that he helped when others have not.

Dr. Alvarez is fantastic! I've been a patient for over 5 years. I am always needing a tune-up since I'm so active. Dr. Alvarez is very knowledgeable and always takes the time to make sure to address any problem joints/body areas. I highly recommend him to all of my friends and family.

Dr. Alverez is the best around, I used to suffer from chronic headaches and back pain. Since seeing Dr. Alverez I have not had one headache, and have returned to being active! He's very kind and well informed. I learn something new on each visit.
