Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic treatments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to improve nervous system function. Through manual adjustments and specialized techniques, we address conditions like back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Patients benefit from reduced inflammation, improved mobility, and natural pain relief without medication.
Cold Laser Therapy
This non-invasive therapy uses specific light wavelengths to stimulate cellular repair and reduce inflammation. Effective for treating neuropathy, disc issues, and soft tissue injuries, our MicroLight 830 laser penetrates deep into tissues to accelerate healing without side effects or discomfort.
Acupuncture
Based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, our acupuncture treatments restore energy flow through meridian pathways. Using microcurrent stimulation and painless needles, we address chronic pain, stress, and systemic imbalances while promoting natural healing processes in the body.
Physiotherapy
Our integrated physiotherapy programs combine passive treatments with active patient participation to restore function and prevent recurring injuries. Techniques include therapeutic exercises, muscle re-education, and postural correction to improve strength, flexibility, and overall physical performance.
Nutritional Counseling
Personalized nutrition plans address individual health goals and medical conditions. Our biochemistry-trained doctors analyze dietary needs, recommend supplements, and develop eating strategies to reduce inflammation, manage weight, and support the body's natural healing mechanisms.

I see Dr. Josh. He is an incredible chiropractor. He helps my asthma stay under control. Because of a schedule change I dont see him as much, but he is incredible.

I have been seeing Dr. Gray for over 10 years and this will be the only chiropractic office I will go to. The whole office is amazing and when Dr. Gray didn't have an appointment and I needed to be seen before one was available, Dr. Josh saw me. You will not find a better, more understanding office than Gray Chiropractic.

Dr. Gray is easily the most personable Dr I've ever met. He listens to what issues you're having and adjusts you to help the best way he can. He also has an impressive memory and will ask how specific people in your life are doing based on previous conversations. My husband sees Dr. Josh and he has helped him DRAMATICALLY. He has a lot of pain and issues from his time in the service and Dr. Josh has managed to help relieve a lot of pain from his body. If I could give 100 stars, I would.

Love Dr Gray and his staff! My wife and I both go. The staff knows us by name, even though we aren't weekly patients. Dr Gray has helped us not only with pain, but also helps with organic treatments such as a colon cleanse we did that felt great and fixed other issues we had! He's extremely knowledgeable and the best chiropractor we've ever had. I recommend him to everyone!
