Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on restoring joint function and spinal alignment through manual adjustments. We address back pain, neck pain, and mobility issues using diversified, Thompson, and instrument-assisted techniques. Patients benefit from improved posture, reduced nerve stress, and enhanced nervous system function, promoting holistic wellness for individuals and athletes alike.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle trigger points to relieve tension, pain, and inflammation. This therapy enhances range of motion by releasing tight areas in the hips, shoulders, back, and legs. Patients experience rapid recovery from chronic pain conditions, with sessions often complementing chiropractic adjustments for optimal results.
Laser Therapy
Low-level laser therapy accelerates tissue healing and reduces pain by stimulating cellular energy production. FDA-approved for neck and shoulder pain, it enhances microcirculation and reduces inflammation. Athletes and individuals with joint issues benefit from faster recovery and improved muscular balance through this non-invasive treatment.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy uses acoustic waves to treat musculoskeletal pain, including tendonitis and plantar fasciitis. It stimulates healing by increasing blood flow and breaking down scar tissue. Ideal for chronic conditions, this therapy offers long-term relief for shoulder, knee, and foot injuries after 3-5 sessions.
Sports Chiropractic
Specialized sports chiropractic services address injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance optimization. Techniques include joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and biomechanical assessments. Athletes gain improved flexibility, reduced recovery times, and enhanced coordination to maintain peak performance levels.

Immediately felt relief from the neck pain Ive been having for weeks. Once my cortisone shot wore off from the orthopedic, I knew my neck needed attention. Dr. Calhoun explained all of the issues I could be experiencing perfectly and the relief I felt once he adjusted my neck was 100% real. One session with him has brought me more comfort than PT and acupuncture combined.

Dr. Calhoun is excellent. He knows a lot about the body and health, and over the years hes helped to fix a number of issues Ive had that did not resolve on their own or with other medical providers. He will continue to problem solve on things youve brought to him after youve left an appointment and may have additional ideas when you see him next.

After hurting my back during exercise I couldn't sleep at night due to the extreme pain and I was limping with pain & leg weakness. My visits to Calhoun Chiropractic literally improved my pain in one visit and over time I am completely back to normal. I am so thankful for the professional, effective care that allowed me to heal and resume my normal activities.

Dr. Calhoun is, without a doubt, the best chiropractor in the region. I've worked alongside Michael providing sports medicine services. Of all the providers I've worked with, he is number one.

The Doctor seems to know his stuff but was unsuccessful in helping me. After seven visits there was nothing more he could do for me except suggest PT. It bothered me intensely that the treatment bench was next to his office desk which looked like a tornado had hit it. It was in total disarray, piled with a messy assortment of files, cards, papers, etc. I wondered how the doctor could keep track of patients when he lacked basic organizational skills. It did not instill confidence of him with me.
