As a chiropractic physician, Dr. Aaron has over twenty-five years of experience, and collaborates with you to find where the problems lie and then to correct them. You will find that this is often the best path to getting and staying well.

The Miracle of Chiropractic

Chiropractors are trained to listen, to examine and then to care for your health.  A chiropractor works by making adjustments, working with diet and supplements, teaching exercise and utilizing other health-giving or stress reducing methods.

The primary technique of chiropractic is called an adjustment. This corrects a subluxation, which may come about from injury, stress, disease and even dietary indiscretion. A subluxation is a misalignment of a small bone of the spine (a vertebra). The misalignment may irritate a spinal nerve that comes out from between two vertebrae. This may adversely affect other areas of the nervous system, which in turn may affect circulation, muscle tone and the function of internal organs resulting in headache, muscle pain, fatigue, hormonal imbalance and many other disorders.

Dr. Aaron’s job is to help your body heal itself by removing the cause of nerve irritation and then, through the use of exercise, diet, nutritional supplementation and attitude, to help you prevent further problems.
There is extensive published research that supports chiropractic.  One example of this research is in the area of workers’ compensation.

Chiropractic care is associated with lower medical costs and more rapid recovery.

The number of patients choosing chiropractic today is growing very quickly, and for good reason: Chiropractic works. Nine years ago, there were over 190 million Americans who went each year--for back problems, for sports injuries, strains and headaches. Whatever the ailment, the fact of increasing numbers indicates that chiropractic works. Chiropractic treatment often relieves pain without having to resort to medication. Why not go?
