Corrective Care Chiropractic
Our Corrective Care Chiropractic focuses on aligning the spine to improve overall function using advanced techniques like the Activator Method and drop tables. These precise adjustments alleviate pain, enhance mobility, and support the bodys natural healing processes. Tailored to individual needs, this service addresses musculoskeletal imbalances and promotes long-term wellness through structural correction.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy employs low-level laser light to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and accelerate cellular healing without invasive procedures. This non-thermal therapy stimulates tissue repair and improves circulation, targeting chronic conditions like arthritis and soft tissue injuries. Patients experience faster recovery times and reduced reliance on medication through this cutting-edge, FDA-approved treatment.
TheraGun Therapy
TheraGun Therapy uses percussive technology to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and enhance recovery from physical strain. This deep-tissue treatment breaks up knots, increases range of motion, and promotes relaxation by delivering rapid, targeted pulses to soft tissues. Ideal for athletes and active individuals, it supports faster healing and sustained musculoskeletal health.
Lifestyle and Nutrition Guidance
Our Lifestyle and Nutrition Guidance provides personalized strategies for sustainable health improvements through dietary choices and daily habits. We address individual needs with evidence-based recommendations on supplementation, stress management, and movement patterns. This service empowers patients to make informed decisions that complement chiropractic care and optimize overall well-being.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave Therapy utilizes acoustic wave technology to stimulate tissue regeneration, reduce chronic pain, and accelerate healing in injured areas.

Back to Health has been a life changing experience. I have dealing with back pain for a lot longer than I realized and when it finally decided I had to pay attention to it I was "grounded". The entire staff has been fantastic with helping me get "back on my feet"! From the front desk to Dr. Heard everyone is supportive, friendly and in "the know". Scheduling is easy and flexible. The schedule Dr. Heard put me on is working and she is always happy to answer any additional questions. I would highly recommend speaking with them!

Serena at Back to Health Chiropractic was amazing! I injured myself lifting my cooler at a volleyball tournament. My left shoulder spasmed and my ribs shifted. It was hurting to breath. Luckily Serena was there and she gave me a brief 3 min adjustment.and wow I could breath without pain again. My pain level went from a 9 to a almost none! So thankful for her skills and healing abilities!

Back to Health had a great atmosphere from the minute I walked in. It was very clean and tastefully decorated. The process from check in, to the warm-up area, and finally to the patient room, flowed very nicely. Serena was warm and bubbly but took the time to explain everything to me so that I understood what was happening with my body. That girl has some magic hands! I felt great at the end of my appointment and I will definitely be back!

I wanted to share what a wonderful experience I had with Serena! She was amazing. I have an ongoing issue with my neck and hips and she has been wonderful. Caring and professional. The rest of the care team is amazing as well! The front desk employees are thoughtful, fun, helpful and accommodate your every need! I would have no problem referring anybody to Back to Health Chiripractic, and I have! Thank you for making me feel human again!

Late getting started and I was 45 minutes early to get all the paperwork done before I saw the chiropractor. I'm on a very tight schedule and Serena was awesome! Thank God for chiropractor's! After my visit I was scheduled for a cortisone shot and I didn't need it! No more pain!
