Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care at Strand Spine Institute focuses on spinal health through manual adjustments and advanced techniques. Our treatments aim to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance nervous system function. Patients benefit from personalized care plans tailored to address acute or chronic conditions, ensuring long-term wellness and prevention of future injuries.
Spinal Decompression
DRX 9000 Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression targets disc-related pain by gently stretching the spine to relieve pressure on intervertebral discs. This therapy promotes healing, reduces nerve compression, and restores spinal function. Ideal for patients with herniated discs, sciatica, or chronic back pain, it offers a non-invasive alternative to surgery.
Summus Laser Therapy
Summus Laser Therapy uses high-intensity light to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation. This non-thermal treatment accelerates healing, alleviates pain, and improves circulation for conditions like arthritis, neuropathy, and soft tissue injuries. It is a safe, drug-free option for patients seeking rapid recovery.
Nutritional Counseling
Our nutritional counseling services integrate dietary guidance with chiropractic care to support overall health. We address weight management, metabolic imbalances, and lifestyle factors through personalized plans. By combining supplementation and holistic strategies, we help patients achieve sustainable wellness and prevent chronic diseases.
Chiropractic for Kids
Specialized chiropractic care for children addresses developmental challenges and spinal misalignments. Gentle adjustments promote healthy nervous system function, improve posture, and support growth-related issues. Our approach ensures safe, effective treatment for infants, toddlers, and adolescents, fostering lifelong wellness.

This place is definitely worth going to for an adjustment. I'm in town from another state and was i was desperately needing an adjustment and he did an amazing job. I called and was able to come to the office within 2 hours of asking for an appointment and I'm already almost pain free. I'm used to Chiropractic adjustments and have been to hundreds in my life and he was by far one of the best and and very efficient, effective, and His support staff is very friendly and helpful.

Also just FYI if you are here on vacation and try to bike here from Litchfield properties, You will run out of trail and need to go back and get your vehicle so plan on driving. I biked until I got to the BP station and had to turn around because the bike trail ended.
