Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments address musculoskeletal issues through precise manual techniques. This service helps alleviate pain from injuries, chronic conditions, or daily stressors while improving nervous system function. Patients benefit from customized treatment plans that may include traditional or gentle adjustment methods tailored to their comfort level and specific health needs.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Specialized chiropractic care for children addresses developmental issues, injuries, and wellness maintenance. Our gentle techniques help with common childhood concerns like ear infections, colic, and posture problems. Regular adjustments support healthy growth patterns and can improve sleep quality, immune function, and overall vitality in young patients.
Auto Accident Recovery
Post-accident chiropractic care focuses on soft tissue injuries and spinal misalignments from car crashes. We provide comprehensive treatment for whiplash, back pain, and headaches caused by collisions. Our approach combines adjustments with rehabilitation strategies to restore mobility and prevent long-term complications from trauma.
Wellness Programs
Our wellness programs emphasize proactive health maintenance through regular chiropractic care. These programs help maintain proper spinal alignment, reduce stress, and enhance nervous system function. Patients receive personalized recommendations for nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle modifications to support optimal health between adjustments.
Gentle Techniques
Gentle chiropractic techniques provide effective treatment without traditional spinal manipulation. This approach uses specialized tools and low-force methods to achieve adjustments comfortably. Ideal for sensitive patients, these techniques deliver pain relief and improved mobility without the popping or cracking sensations associated with standard adjustments.

I've been going to Dr. Jacobs for years, I'm always so amazed that within seconds he can identify the area in question and can quickly provide me the relief I desired. His prices are fair and they can always see me when I need them most. Highly recommend!

Dr. Jacobs changed my life. I was involved in a rear-end collision; I was in pain and had trouble walking, sitting, breathing - everything. I was sitting at my desk at a yoga retreat when he walked in - I looked up and instinctively said, "What do you do?" He answered "chiropractor." I said "I NEED YOUR HELP." He immediately started helping me and it's been a non-stop journey of healing. I recommend him to everyone I see in need. The support staff is wonderful too.

What a find! I can't say enough about Dr. Jacobs and his staff. They are all so warm and welcoming, not your average doctor visit. I always leave with a smile on my face. My long-time chiropractor retired so I was on the search for an experienced, knowledgeable and personable replacement! I could not be happier. Dr. Jacobs is extremely thorough and down to earth. I enjoy every visit and always feel better when I leave! Highly recommended.

I've been coming here for over 5 years and am still going strong. Dr Jacobs really listens to his patient's concerns to make sure everything gets addressed, something I've had problems with other chiropractors over the years. He even checks to make sure all your concerns are addressed before you leave so you can leave feeling your best.

Dr. Jacobs truly takes individualized care to another level. He begins his evaluations by asking all the right questions regarding history and what you are comfortable with during his treatments. The office is conveniently located and very well kept. You feel as if you are heard and treated based on individualized attention which is refreshing. A+ chiropractic center, I will definitely be recommending to friends!
