Our Chiropractor, Dr. Ricky Singh, can treat any condition related to the nervous system, muscular system or skeletal system in any part of the body (not just the spine). His unique treatment style integrates movement based training, so depending on your condition, you'll experience a combination of active and passive therapy with each treatment. During your hour-long initial assessment, a full-body movement assessment will determine your strengths and limitations, followed by a localized orthopedic assessment on the area that may be injured. You'll receive a diagnosis of your condition as well as a treatment plan including a discussion of how much therapy you will require, what types of therapy will be performed, and whether further diagnostic imaging (xrays/MRI/ctscan) will be required.
