WHAT IS
CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is more than just helping alleviate back pain. At The Chirohouse, we offer neurologically based chiropractic care. The purpose is not the treatment of conditions or disease; rather, it is the restoration of normal body function. As chiropractors, we work with the nervous system via gentle spinal adjustments. We reduce stress related interference to the nervous system, thereby enhancing overall body function. All the systems of the body — circulatory, digestive, eliminatory, hormonal, glandular, immunological, muscular, reproductive, respiratory, and skeletal — depend on the optimal function of the nervous system. By removing spinal subluxations through very safe, specific, and controlled forces applied to the spine, the interference is removed which allows the body’s nervous system to function at maximum potential and within a state of balance. This is why Chiropractic is beneficial for everyone!
WHO WE SERVE
INFANTS
It is essential for babies to get checked by a chiropractor as soon as they are born. Many health challenges that show up in childhood or adulthood can be traced back to structural damage from birth, especially if there was traction used for a C-section, vacuum extraction, or forceps delivery. This can cause a subtle shift in the top bone of the neck. That shift can interfere with the nervous system and disrupt normal childhood development. Chiropractic care for infants is very gentle, we use no more pressure than what you would use to check the ripeness of an avocado. Chiropractic care is also very successful at helping babies with colic, nursing challenges, acid reflux, cranial bone distortion, sleep, torticollis, and better digestion because the body is functioning, adapting, and healing better.
CHILDREN
Chiropractors release blockages in the nervous system so that the brain and body can communicate properly. This improves overall physical, behavioral, and emotional health, especially during such a vital developmental time. We are here to help ensure proper function of the spine and freedom for your child’s nervous system to operate properly! A healthy nervous system during childhood is essential for a healthy life! Children with optimally functioning nervous systems by visiting a pediatric chiropractor tend to have:
-
Better sleep
-
Diminished allergies
-
Less ear infections
-
Elevated mood
-
Easier time digesting food
-
Enhanced performance

PRENATAL & POSTPARTUM
Chiropractic care is an essential component of a healthy pregnancy. Research shows that prenatal chiropractic care contributes to a more straightforward labor with less pain and trauma for mother and child. It can improve the balance and alignment of the spine and pelvis and can provide a more comfortable pregnancy and delivery for mother and baby. By restoring balance to the nervous system through gentle + specific nervous system focused chiropractic adjustments, optimal function to the reproductive organs is restored thus supporting the needs of your baby throughout pregnancy. When mom's physiological function is at its best, baby's development is optimal. By practicing the Webster technique, this can be extremely helpful in balancing the pelvis and helping baby be in the best possible position.
​
Just as pregnancy causes many changes within the body, the postpartum period also comes with its own challenges and physical demands, such as holding that baby, breastfeeding, hormonal changes, carrying car seats, etc. Due to the residual effects of the hormone Relaxin on the spine and joints, the body often has a harder time normalizing bio-mechanics and function. Chiropractic care helps facilitate balance, alignment, and function to foster a quicker and easier recovery. Remember to take care of yourself, too!
ATHLETES
Chiropractic care can be incredibly beneficial for athletes. By ensuring the nervous system is functioning at its optimal level, this can translate into better performance, hitting PRs, better mind body connection, and reducing the risk of injury.
Fun fact: Dr. Cory has nine state records in powerlifting! He contributes his success to hard work and chiropractic care.

ACUPUNCTURE
AT THE CHIROHOUSE
Dr. Jo & Dr. Cory are both certified to perform acupuncture! Acupuncture and chiropractic are very similar in that they both believe balance in the body is key to health and wellness. Acupuncture differs in that instead of focusing on the nervous system, balance in the body is achieved through its own energy (Qi). By stimulating certain acupuncture points (which there are over 300 points in the body!) this allows the energy of the body to flow more naturally, allowing healing to occur. Acupuncture has been used for over 5,000 years with great success in treating ailments such as fertility problems, digestion issues, anxiety/ depression/PTSD, hormone imbalance, chronic pain.. the list goes on!
