Services
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression effectively relieves pain from bulging discs, herniated discs, and sciatica. This non-surgical treatment uses advanced technology to gently stretch the spine, reducing pressure on intervertebral discs and promoting healing. Ideal for patients seeking alternatives to medication or surgery, it addresses chronic back pain and failed back surgery syndrome with minimal side effects.
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal misalignments to improve nervous system function and alleviate pain. Techniques include manual adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and posture correction. Patients benefit from reduced inflammation, enhanced mobility, and long-term relief for conditions like neck pain, headaches, and joint discomfort through personalized treatment plans.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy uses targeted light energy to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation. This painless treatment accelerates healing for injuries, arthritis, and chronic pain conditions. Combined with other therapies, it enhances recovery outcomes by improving circulation and reducing reliance on pain medications without invasive procedures.
Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point injections target tight muscle knots causing localized or radiating pain. By injecting a solution directly into affected areas, this treatment alleviates discomfort from conditions like fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome. It complements chiropractic adjustments to restore mobility and reduce chronic muscle tension effectively.
Knee Decompression
Knee decompression therapy addresses arthritis, sprains, and degenerative conditions by gently realigning joint structures. This non-invasive approach reduces pain and improves mobility without surgery, making it ideal for patients seeking alternatives to medication or joint replacement. Sessions focus on restoring function and minimizing complications through controlled, therapeutic movements.

I have had adjustments, stem cell replacement, and also the hormone capsule injected. This has decently made a difference in my quality of life. I just thought that I had to live with pain. It's nice to know that without meds it's possible. Update**** Just went back for an adjustment and again went beyond my expectations. Dr. Shuester has been improving himself for his patients and again improved my treatment. I love the atmosphere and how I feel when leaving! The best non surgical treatment available!

I typically don't do reviews but I am so thankful that God nudged me to visit Back to Health because Dr. Schuster and his staff were so kind, upbeat, encouraging, and helpful to me during a very uncertain time in my life. Hip pain, nerve issues and loss of strength in my legs, along with soreness in my back were dramatically affecting my active lifestyle. After x-rays, and an examination Dr. Schuster suggested an MRI which revealed a herniated disc.
He thoroughly explained my condition to myself and my husband, and knowing we were not in favor of surgery, he also explained his decompression program. After just a few sessions, I began to feel much needed relief. Now, after 2 months, I have no back pain, my hips feel great, and I have the strength back in my legs. I highly recommend Dr. Schuster and his caring team and I am thankful our community has access to the many treatments Back To Health has to offer.
