Chiropractic Care

Our chiropractic care focuses on spinal alignment and nervous system function to alleviate pain and improve overall wellness. Through manual adjustments and targeted therapies, we address musculoskeletal imbalances that cause discomfort in the neck, back, and extremities. This treatment benefits patients seeking non-invasive solutions for chronic pain, postural issues, and injury recovery while promoting optimal body function.

Active Release Technique

Active Release Technique treats soft tissue injuries by breaking down scar tissue and restoring normal muscle function. Our certified practitioners use precise movements and manual pressure to resolve adhesions causing pain in shoulders, elbows, knees, and other joints. This method particularly benefits athletes and individuals with repetitive strain injuries, offering faster recovery than traditional treatments.

Sports Injury Recovery

Specialized treatment for sports-related injuries combines chiropractic adjustments with corrective exercises to accelerate healing. We address common issues like sprains, strains, and joint inflammation while improving mobility and preventing future injuries. Our approach helps athletes regain peak performance levels through targeted therapy tailored to specific sports demands and training regimens.

Auto Injury Treatment

Post-accident care focuses on identifying and treating hidden injuries like spinal misalignments and soft tissue damage. We develop comprehensive recovery plans addressing neck pain, headaches, and musculoskeletal imbalances caused by collisions. Our documentation and treatment protocols support both patient recovery and potential insurance claims related to auto-related injuries.

Nutritional Counseling

Nutritional counseling provides personalized dietary recommendations to support healing and overall wellness. We educate patients on food choices that reduce inflammation and improve bodily functions, complementing chiropractic treatments. This service helps individuals develop sustainable eating habits that enhance treatment outcomes and promote long-term health improvements.

Dr. Messina has been fantastic. I am a new patient who came to him through a "word of mouth referral" that told me "he was the best". I basically crawled into his office on my first visit with chronic back issues and within a few weeks he has my symptoms under control and I am now getting around without pain. Along with the treatment Dr. Messina has given some great suggestions for home to help as well. Very knowledgeable and professional.

I am having an unbelievable experience with Dr. Messina after being some what skeptical about letting anyone do any type of adjustments on me. I went in with pain in my hips neck, back, arms and hands and through his diagnostics, (which were right on ) and skilled hands I feel so much better, . I'm confident in his understandings and see that this type of treatment needs to be part of my personal maintenance program. Thanks so much for your expertise and for the time you spend explaining things to me and helping me create better postural habits. 5 stars for me.

I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Messina. I have neck and back problems that have needed more attention in the past few years. He has literally saved me from living a life of chronic pain. I recently had a neck injury whereby I could not move my neck and experienced excruciating pain. Dr. Messina went out of his way and worked around his schedule to help heal me every single day for over a one week time period.

I had not experienced anything like this before and I was fragile to say the least. Dr. Messina's level of attention, knowledge and carefulness in treating me got me back to normalcy. There is no doubt that because of him, I can live the type of active lifestyle that I want to live without the fear of pain.

I am sitting here writing this review PAIN-FREE for the first time in years. After the first visit / adjustment, I walked out of the office in awe of the results. I have seen other chiropractors before with varied results so I never imagined I would have this much relief after just one adjustment. I had gotten used to having chronic lower back pain and accepted it would be with me for the rest of my life - when Dr Messina told me the goal would be zero pain I laughed to myself in disbelief. Who's laughing now? This is life-changing stuff.

I started having some TMJ jaw pain around five years ago and it had progressively gotten much worse recently turning into migraines and neck/temple pain. I went to my dentist and tried a couple massage therapists to try and fix the issue with minimal results. I've never tried a chiropractor before and I didn't have high expectations but after just two visits to Messina family chiropractic my jaw pain is only about 10% of what it was and the migraines are gone. Dr Messina is extremely knowledgeable and has taken the time to determine exactly what was causing my issue. If you are experiencing any similar symptoms I'd strongly recommend going to him.
