Leelanau Family Chiropractic

Chiropractic Care

Over 20 million people seek chiropractic care each year and about a third of those are looking for relief from back pain.  Others seek relief from headaches or from pain in the neck, the arms and legs.

Most chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation but at Leelanau Family Chiropractic we use the Impulse IQ Adjusting Instrument® to bring your body into proper alignment.   The Impulse is a tool that allows us to direct your adjustment to the critical points in your body that need care.

Whether you come to us after an auto accident, a sports injury or a muscle strain we help you get your spine and the rest of your musculoskeletal structure aligned.  Our goal is to get your body to a point where it can heal itself without surgery or medication.

When should you see a chiropractor?  Here are a few situations:

• If you were injured in a traumatic event like an auto accident or a fall.

• If you have pain that comes from repetitive stress on your body such as sitting with proper back support or working on a keyboard for hours.

• If you're committed to your health and wellness and want to do everything you can including exercise, diet and chiropractic care to keep your body in alignment and working well.
