Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore spinal alignment by correcting vertebral subluxations. Dr. Medlin uses manual techniques to alleviate nerve pressure, reduce pain, and improve mobility. Each session includes a thorough evaluation to tailor adjustments to individual needs, ensuring safe and effective relief for acute injuries and chronic conditions like herniated discs and sciatica.
Massage Therapy
Our licensed massage therapist employs Swedish, deep tissue, and trigger point therapies to relieve muscle tension and enhance recovery. Massage sessions improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and complement chiropractic adjustments by relaxing muscles before spinal manipulations. This integrative approach accelerates healing for sports injuries, repetitive strain, and chronic pain conditions.
Physical Rehabilitation
Personalized rehabilitation programs combine exercise regimens and manual therapies to restore function after injuries. Dr. Medlin designs plans targeting strength, flexibility, and mobility improvements. Patients receive hands-on guidance during 3045 minute sessions, learning home exercises to support recovery from auto accidents, workplace injuries, and chronic musculoskeletal disorders.
Auto Accident Injury Treatments
Specialized care addresses injuries from car accidents, including whiplash, herniated discs, and joint trauma. Treatments integrate spinal adjustments, decompression therapy, and soft tissue work to reduce pain and inflammation. We document injuries for insurance claims and provide targeted therapies to restore mobility and prevent long-term complications from collisions.
Work Place Injury
We treat work-related injuries like sprains, repetitive motion disorders, and fall-related trauma. Comprehensive evaluations determine optimal therapies, including ergonomic advice and rehabilitative exercises. Our documentation supports workers' compensation claims while treatments focus on returning patients to full function through non-invasive chiropractic care and physical therapy.

Really helped me a lot. I was in a great deal of pain and tried many different things from massage to acupuncture, but the combination Dr. Medlin used of massage, PT and Adjustments did the trick. Finally pain free.
