Services
Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic
Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic uses percussive sound waves to realign the C1 vertebra, relieving brainstem pressure and restoring body balance. This non-invasive technique corrects misalignments through precise radiographic analysis, ensuring tailored adjustments. Patients often experience immediate reduction in neck irritation and improved spinal function, promoting natural healing without manipulation.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
This therapy treats disc injuries in the neck and lower back using a decompression table to create negative pressure in discs. It reduces herniations and bulges by drawing nutrients into the disc, aiding healing. Sessions last under 20 minutes, with most patients seeing relief in 6-10 treatments, avoiding surgery and steroid injections.
Laser Therapy
High-intensity laser therapy accelerates tissue healing and reduces pain for acute or chronic conditions. Its non-invasive, drug-free, and targets inflammation, muscle strains, and joint pain. Treatments take 5-10 minutes, with acute conditions requiring 5-6 sessions and chronic issues needing 6-12 sessions for optimal results.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics correct foot imbalances by aligning the foot and ankle into efficient positions. Using digital gait scans, we create biomechanical appliances that reduce stress on the body. These orthotics fit in most shoes, improving posture and alleviating pain in feet, legs, hips, and back caused by poor alignment.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Prenatal chiropractic care addresses spinal stress during pregnancy, easing lower back pain, sciatica, and joint discomfort. Specialized adjustments accommodate the changing body, promoting pelvic balance and potentially smoother labor. Postpartum care realigns the spine, aiding recovery and reducing long-term pain from carrying and lifting.

Dr. Roundy is a phenomenal individual. I have been his patient for almost 8 years and he always understands and knows how to help me. I've came to him with plenty of injuries and every time him and his staff make me feel welcome. One of the few doctors out there that care for your whole well being.

Great place and very friendly staff. My son has seen Dr Roundy for a few years now for regular adjustments and he is very informative and explains everything while you are getting adjusted. When he broke his ankle he went in to get laser treatment which cut his healing time in half. Just recently our dog injured her leg and we brought her in for laser treatments with Dr Roundy too. I highly recommend Altas to anyone looking for a great chiropractor.

Everyone is so great at Atlas. The front and back office staff are so kind and helpful. This experience is different from any other chiropractic clinic. and I mean this in a great way if you have ever been concerned with manipulation you need to check out there website to see what I mean. I wouldn't trust my neck issues with anyone else now. Dr. Roundly and Dr. Ruckman are great! Marta
