Our Patients Are the Focus

Elisa is amazing. She’s the best chiropractor. She fixes what’s wrong every time! She cares about you as a person — and that is hard to find in the medical field. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

MRI and X-ray Reports

MRI and X-ray reviews can be helpful to tailor your treatment, create an exercise plan, discuss surgical options, and generally help you understand what is happening in your body.  Dr. Adams reviews the films and then discusses with you in person.  

Exercise Program

Exercise is important for general health.  Proper body mechanics during exercise is critical to support the chiropractic adjustments.  Dr. Adams can create, modify, or add to an existing exercise program that supports your health goals.  Most importantly, she can assess your form and technique to ensure you are getting the most benefit from your exercise.
