Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on spinal health, using manual adjustments to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance nervous system function. This service addresses chronic conditions like back pain, neck pain, and headaches, as well as injuries from auto accidents. Patients benefit from non-invasive, drug-free treatments tailored to their specific needs.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle tension and trigger points to relieve chronic or acute pain. Thin needles stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and improve blood flow. This technique is effective for sports injuries, postural imbalances, and pain from repetitive strain, offering rapid recovery for active individuals and those with sedentary lifestyles.
Functional Rehabilitation
Functional rehabilitation restores mobility and prevents re-injury through customized exercise programs. We address muscle imbalances, improve posture, and strengthen weak areas to support long-term recovery. This service complements chiropractic adjustments, ensuring patients regain full function after injuries or chronic pain episodes.
Auto Accident Rehabilitation
Specialized care for auto accident injuries, including whiplash and soft-tissue damage. We combine chiropractic adjustments, dry needling, and rehabilitation to reduce pain, restore range of motion, and accelerate healing. Our approach ensures patients recover fully from collisions, returning to daily activities without discomfort.
TMJ Dysfunction Treatment
TMJ dysfunction treatment alleviates jaw pain, headaches, and clicking sounds through manual therapy and postural corrections. We address misalignments and muscle tension in the temporomandibular joint, providing non-surgical solutions for chronic jaw discomfort caused by stress, injury, or teeth grinding.

Dr. Hands is compassionate and knowledgeable. The chiropractic treatment I received led to significant pain reduction during a pregnancy. His office staff is patient, efficient, and helpful. I am grateful for the excellent care, and I highly recommend this practice!

Absolutely love this place! Dr. Lief and his staff is extremely professional and welcoming. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you really do receive amazing treatment. I also enjoy that I do not feel like they try to "milk" you or have you come repeatedly if an adjustment is not needed. When Dr. Lief felt as if I no longer needed an adjustment, he told me we were done and to only come back as needed if/when I began to become stiff. I appreciated this honesty!

The team at precise chiropractor are very warm and inviting. Lorrie and Steffany are very helpful and provide excellent customer service. I was having upper back pains that have gotten so much better with the care and therapy of Dr. Hands. I also had the dry needling service and that did wonders! Thanks so much. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

My life has totally changed since I started seeing Dr. Hands! He truly works magic. I look forward to my adjustment and I know when I leave I will feel brand new. His staff is amazing and very friendly. I recently had a baby at the age of 41 and without his weekly adjustments I am not sure how I would have coped physically. His name fits him perfectly, Dr. Hands. because his hands work Magic!

I switched chiropractors after not seeing results with my previous doctor. After 2 weeks with Dr. Hands, I am feeling getting the pain relief that I need. The office environment is welcoming and the staff is great. Dr. Hands is friendly and gives enough time for me to get my treatment and ask the questions that I need to make sure I understand what's going on with my treatment. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone needing chiropractic care.

First time ever seeing a chiropractor for a neck pain and after two visits I am almost 100% feeling better. Dr. Hands makes you feel at ease and educates you on what he's doing to relieve pain. His team is also super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

I threw out my back and they were kind enough to squeeze me in at the last minute and my treatment immediately helped. I would recommend to anyone!!

Dr. Hands has THE hands! I have been to about 8-10 chiropractors and Dr. Hands is the best. I like his approach because he seems to incorporate a holistic viewpoint with the western medical viewpoint. This approach is vital to bettering someone because everyone is different and has different needs. It allows for more variety to the patients in finding the treatments that work best for them. He offers endless knowledge about the body, is dedicated to helping each individual with their personal wellness, and always has a positive attitude.
I recommend going to Dr. Hands whether you have a physical goal to reach or trying to heal from an injury. I personally have had muscular tension in my back and have been trying to increase my overall flexibility as a professional dancer in order to reach my goal of going into a full split. He has continued to work with me and has helped me continue to better myself physically and mentally. Thank you, Dr. Hands!

After years of being in pain and finding no relief or answers, I came to see Dr. Hands. I am glad that I did. Not only has he helped hugely with my pain and structural issues, but he has provided me with exercises to help and has made sure that I understand what is happening within and to my body. Moreover, he has a network of wonderful specialists to help with a series of other issues, and I have not be disappointed in those recommendations either! His office is warm and inviting, and he has proven over and over again that he is a patient-first doctor. I could not recommend him more highly.

I came to Dr Hands with a badly torn meniscus and was on crutches at that time. I was slated for surgery and gave him three weeks to see if we could at least get me ready for the surgery as I would have PT after the surgery anyway. That was 7 weeks ago and I eventually cancelled the surgery and am walking with zero pain and am now strengthening my leg muscles to eventually get back to cycling. Dr Hands has done a miraculous job, I didn't believe it was possible given the amount of pain I was in at the outset. I also visit Dr Hands when my lower back is out and walk away every time as though it never happened!

After weeks of sciatic pain in my lower back due to herniated bulging discs, Dr. Hands has once again effectively relieved that pain, has me back on track for building my core to keep the pain at bay to be back enjoying things I love. I have been going to Dr. Hands for years now (on and off for pain management when needed) and I was probably the biggest skeptic of Chiropractic care in the beginning, since then Dr. Hands has shown me hands down (pun intended) that he cares for his patients.
His unpretentious character and the warm and friendly atmosphere at the crucible make every visit seem like a little slice of heaven. I HIGHLY recommend you at least go see him one time and I assure you it will be well worth it.

I was involved in a car accident last week and suffered from whiplash, and back and neck pain. In just a few painless and immediately gratifying visits, I was "back" up and running. Thanks Dr. Hands!

Dr. Hands is wonderful! I've taken my 7 week old for adjustments to help with reflux. It's already working wonders. Dr. Hands is gentle, patient and very caring. I look forward to using him for all our family chiropractic needs for many years in the future. Highly recommend!

Awesome best chiropractor in the world! Very nice and great at what he dose wouldn't go anywhere else.

Dr. Hands is very professional and cares about his patients. I had lived with chronic back pain for over a year and was at the point I could not take it anymore. I have 3 bulging discs and scoliosis of the spine. Dr Hands was recommended to me and I am so glad I booked an appointment with his office. I am pain free today and never felt better. I have not had any problems with the billing dept that was stated in another review. His assistant Shannon is wonderful. Book an appointment today with Dr. Hands and you wont be sorry he is awesome.
