Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal misalignments through specific, gentle adjustments. Using various techniques tailored to individual needs, we restore proper joint function and nervous system communication. This approach helps alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall body mechanics for patients seeking non-invasive solutions to musculoskeletal issues.
Functional Movement Screening
Functional movement screenings identify poor coupling patterns affecting biomechanics. By analyzing movement quality, we detect imbalances and weaknesses that contribute to chronic pain and injury risk. This assessment forms the foundation for personalized rehabilitation programs targeting specific movement dysfunctions in both athletes and general patients.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Our soft tissue therapy combines Active Release Techniques, Graston Technique, and therapeutic taping to address muscle adhesions and scar tissue. These evidence-based methods improve tissue elasticity, reduce pain, and accelerate healing for conditions like tendonitis, muscle strains, and repetitive stress injuries through targeted manual interventions.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation
Specialized sports injury rehabilitation focuses on restoring function after athletic injuries. We employ progressive exercise programs and sport-specific training to rebuild strength, improve joint stability, and prevent re-injury. Our experience treating professional fighters and endurance athletes translates to effective recovery protocols for all activity levels.
Corrective Exercise Programs
Custom corrective exercise programs target individual movement deficiencies through targeted strengthening and mobility drills. These home-friendly exercises reinforce clinic treatments by improving neuromuscular control, postural alignment, and movement efficiency to maintain long-term musculoskeletal health and prevent recurring issues.

Report
I had lower back back pain and after many many adjustments stayed the same. One visit with Dr. Valle and my pain was gone for months. I visit him two or three times a year instead of 3 times a week with other chiropractors and only do it because i spend a lot of hours driving through the day. I recommend you to go see him.

Dr Manny has done amazing work on me, and everyone that I have referred to him. I think we are all careful when we refer someone, this is a guy I know who is going to get that person out of pain. I have seen him revive athletes careers, as well as help me when my body got locked up from too much computer time. I highly recommend him!
